Gavin Wood said in his 2024 annual summary that Polkadot has entered a watershed period, and its core goal has shifted from achieving the product goals of the white paper to optimizing and improving stability to better meet market demand.
In terms of technology, Polkadot has launched several major advances in 2024, and the Mythical Game project has pushed its performance to the limit. At the same time, Gavin proposed the Proof-of-Personhood mechanism, which aims to respond to the threat of generative AI to the free world. It provides a trusted identity solution by combining ZK technology and is scheduled to be launched in 2025.
