Acala is improving quickly, bridging Polkadot with major networks like Ethereum and Solana

With Snowbridge enabling trustless asset transfers from Ethereum, and Hyperlane offering broad multi-chain connectivity.

For developers and users focused on interoperability, this is a development worth watching closely

Acala is integrating two new bridges Snowbridge and Hyperlane to expand multichain connectivity.

Snowbridge offers a trust-minimized way to move ETH and ERC-20 tokens between Ethereum and Polkadot using a native light client. This kind of setup supports secure, direct transfers of assets.

Hyperlane introduces a modular approach to interoperability, connecting Acala with various networks, including L2s, alt L1s, and appchains. It's designed to support messaging and asset movement across chains.

These updates reflect ongoing work to improve infrastructure and cross-chain access within the ecosystem.

Acala is quietly laying serious groundwork for the multichain future. Polkadot’s JAM architecture is on the horizon

aSEED 2 and 3 withdrawals are now live, with ACA stability mechanisms in place

We also experienced some core upgrades like asynchronous backing and Sentinel are enhancing performance and bridge security.

The incentivized testnet for the ACA prediction platform on @Acala is still ongoing, with 8 days left to participate.

Users can experiment with price predictions, explore the platform’s features, and climb the leaderboard.

Participation remains open🚀

#Polkadot

Easy Acala the Gm farming dapp that launched on @Acala recently launched on mainnet, and it’s showing increasing on-chain activity. Users interact through smart contracts, making transactions transparent and verifiable on the blockchain.

Easy Acala is also being integrated as a verification layer for Acala’s ambassador program, aiming to engage users who actively participate in the ecosystem.

This approach helps ensure rewards are distributed to contributors rather than passive participants.

I think this is good for ACA

VoTA, a prediction platform that launched of @Acala during the Meme and Dapp contest, is currently live with its testnet.

To get in on the airdrop, all it takes is predicting ACA price, earning points, and climbing the leaderboard.
The testnet runs for 14 days kicked off two days ago, so there’s still time to join in early.

If you think you’ve got good instincts, here’s the time to put them to work.

The @Acala treasury holds 45.82M ACA, with 458.23K ACA set to be burned in 5 days.

These monthly burns support emission control and long term sustainability in the ecosystem

The #Acala Meme and Dapp contest is taking a short break. Not the end, just a moment to reset.

This gives builders room to build; moving from testnet to mainnet, refining their work, and scaling without the contest clock ticking.

Meanwhile, the voting system’s with ACA getting some upgrades too. The aim is to make future contests smoother, more community driven, and even more rewarding for creators.

The month 3 of the #Acala Meme and Dapp contest wrapped up and the community made their picks.

Top spots this round go to:
1. RealVerse
2. Damn DAO
3. Boomerang
4. Polkalottery
5. Easy Acala

Each brought something unique; creativity, consistency, and community energy.

Kudos to everyone who took part. Watching these ideas grow each round has been a vibe.

One of the very interesting things happening on @Acala right now is Boomerang working on liquid ACA. This is staking without the usual lock-up.

Acala is also in talks with exchanges to smooth out ACA support on MetaMask and Polkadot wallets.

Moves like this don’t make noise now, but they often signal where things are headed long term.

Month 3 of the @Acala Meme and dApp Contest is coming to a close, with voting set to end on May 1st.

If you’ve been following the entries or just curious about what the Acala community’s been building and creating, all the details and voting are up on Subsquare. Still some time to take a look and weigh in.

VOTA, the prediction platform built on @Acala just added a fun twist to the ongoing Meme and dApp contest, turning community votes into a prediction challenge.

If you’ve got a good eye for what the crowd’s leaning toward, now’s a good time to test it. There's a 4500 $ACA prize pool tied to the right picks, and the clock's ticking with just a few days left.

It’s a creative way to get involved, stay sharp, and maybe walk away with more than just bragging rights.

The early adopters campaign on Vota a decentralized prediction platform built on #Acala has wrapped up, and the winners have been announced.
Were you one of them? If so, congrats!
It’s been fun predicting the price of $ACA let’s keep the momentum going and see where this journey takes us! 🚀

$ACA keeps @Acala running. Here are it’s use cases;

• Securing the network – Every token staked is another layer of protection.
• Powering governance – The community voices shape the roadmap.
• Covering transactions – Gas fees handled smoothly and efficiently.
• Fuels DeFi – Liquidity🤩

It’s built on #Polkadot all working together for a smoother Web3 experience.

If you're building on #Polkadot or @Acala and API costs are becoming too much, SubQuery’s got something that might help.

They’re offering grants to cover those querying expenses making it easier for devs to focus on building without stressing the backend bills.

This makes it a little easier.

The Acala ecosystem is quietly stacking real utility beyond just talk.

From meme token launchpads to platforms that make crypto payments feel like sending a text… even bulk transactions for $DOT LDOT that save you time and fees. And yep, there’s one where you predict $ACA prices and get rewarded if you're spot on.

It’s not just the ideas anymore. Builders are shipping and with the ongoing @Acala meme & dapp contest, it’s looking like we’re just getting started.

In just over a day, 387,100 $ACA will be gone, burned permanently as part of Acala’s ongoing monthly reduction.

These routine burns quietly shape how the ecosystem evolves over time.

If you want to see it all happen in real-time, the treasury stats, burn schedules, proposals, they’re all right in the subsquare.

I noticed some updates on Subscan while reviewing activity on the @Acala . The portfolio section now includes more visibility into LP positions, staking details, and cross-chain interactions. Everything feels a bit more structured especially for those who manage multiple assets across pools. I didn’t even realize I still had an $ACA / USDT pool running until I opened up.

UI changes are subtle but meaningful. LP tokens are clearly listed, along with any active positions and reward statuses. For someone who checks Subscan often to monitor movements or assist with wallet-related issues, the improved layout definitely helps.

It's good to see tools evolve like this not just in functionality but in how clearly they present on-chain data. Makes navigating the ecosystem a bit smoother.
#Defi

Polkadot has hit a new level with 2.0, and @Acala didn’t come to play. The upgrades are not just hype, DeFi runs smoother, smarter, and more efficiently than ever.
Elastic scaling, multi chain staking, everything feels more put together, it’s a whole new chapter for Web3.

#polkadot2.0 #AcalaNetwork

Shunji of @Acala brought thoughtful perspective to the PolkaWorld panel at Soho House, Hong Kong.
From the evolution of pioneering communities to #Polkadot ’s expanding ecosystem, the conversation was rich with insight.

The session happened on April 6th, you’ll find the replay on the official PolkaWorld channel. It’s worth tuning in.
