Conclusion:
Polkadot is one of the most established and technically ambitious crypto projects, yet many newer investors barely pay attention to it.
Even if you’re not investing, I feel like everyone should at least know what’s happening in its ecosystem.
Hopefully, this gave you a useful starting point for further research!
What do you think—will Polkadot see more attention in 2025?
