be careful out there, little birdies
⚠️ Recruitment fraud warning We've seen reports of scammers posing as recruiters for @Kusama, @Polkadot and the Web3 Foundation, asking applicants to pay for tests or assessments. In other cases, people are asked to download GitHub repos containing malicious code. These are hoaxes. Web3 Foundation does not charge people to apply for jobs. Polkadot and Kusama are decentralised networks, not employers. Stay vigilant. Never pay to apply for a job, and be cautious before clicking on unsolicited links.

Rest in peace Yayoi Kusama. You've been an inspiration, visionary, and will always remain an utterly unique artist - a single particle among billions.

We all know that @kusamanetwork is an experimental network. Now it is time to strengthen Kusama as the home for bold experiments, on-chain art, and creative tech. 💪🏼

Since 2023, the Nyota community in Dar es Salaam has been adapting the Encointer system to local realities. Combining blockchain-based community currencies with local traditions like Mchezo savings groups, the pilot supports small businesses, collaboration, and community resilience. Initial support by Web3 Foundation. Watch here: youtube.com/watch?v=4_u7J64M…

🎉 Congrats to @paritytech for successfully completing the Kusama migration! @kusamanetwork just pulled off a historic system-level migration — moving from the Relay Chain to the Asset Hub: ⛓️ 25 core pallets (including Governance, Staking & Treasury) 👥 348,210 accounts 💰 17,127,445.03 KSM 🗄️ 841,219 storage entries ⚙️ 25,784 stakers with 8.34M KSM staked 📦 118 MB of data & 6,000+ XCM messages Estimated to take 6 hours — finished in just 3h 13m! Full report 👉 forum.polkadot.network/t/ass… Next up: @Polkadot migration on Nov 4 🚀
🚨 Witnessing history — again! Right now, @kusamanetwork is executing one of the wildest moves in blockchain history: 21 pallets — including Accounts, Treasury, and Staking — are now being migrated from the Kusama Relay Chain to the Asset Hub, a process expected to take around 6 hours. No action required from users, but if you’re using DeFi dapps, check your project’s updates! Once it’s done: • The Relay Chain will become pure — handling only security & consensus. • Asset Hub will evolve into the new system mainchain, hosting user activity, treasury ops, and governance. • And this sets the stage for JAM, the next evolution of Polkadot. What changes after migration: • Governance & treasury will move fully on-chain — directly managing assets & even smart contracts. • Dapps will gain system-level access to assets, no longer limited by non-contract layers. • Treasury payouts, staking rewards, and ecosystem incentives will soon run automatically via smart contracts — the birth of a smart treasury. This migration isn’t just “moving data.” It’s the birth of a new generation — combining all of @Polkadot 's strengths, while giving it native smart-contract capability. A milestone bigger than rebirth itself. 💥 migration.paritytech.io/
