It was a packed room today at @PwC_UK for the Power Women Network Summit, and @USCHill, @Jtbjensen and I had a great panel on the journey from startup to exit in the age of AI. Thank you for having us!

Another great gathering and event in London next week. I'll be covering the questions around 'Building the Future' in the UK's digital economy with Eva Dobrzanska, @JBanon and @USCHill .
Always great to be able to contribute to the right discussions on behalf of @xapobankapp which has already built most of what current Banks are starting to explore.

AI threatens trust and transparency.
Blockchain restores it.

Today marks my last day at @paritytech after 3.5 incredible years. It’s hard to put into words what this @Polkadot journey has meant to me.
Working alongside some of the most talented, generous, and inspiring architects of our digital future has been a career highlight.
This chapter was filled with learning, laughter, and unforgettable moments. I’ve captured some of it in this short video 🎥 and also share a moving farewell poem from the team.
SOUND ON!
As I turn the page, I carry with me deep gratitude for the journey so far and a lot of excitement for what’s ahead.
And to those still on the journey: keep buidling 🔥
Thank you!

With the approval of referendum 1536 the @Polkadot community voted to assign cores to Mythos chain as well as @xcavateofficial.
We want to thank the @Polkadot community for the support and ensuring availability of coretime for Mythos Chain.
We have decided to do a symbolic donation of 200 DOT to the Polkadot treasury. This is not supposed to be a valuation of a core, but a gesture and more than 200x more than what Mythos paid for the core bought in March.
Availability and scalability are major value drivers for Polkadot and the ecosystem - holding cores to try to create price pressure is only benefiting the resellers, not the ecosystem. Price should probably be determined by use. In any case coretime should always be available and scalable - that is what makes projects choose to build on Polkadot. With the passing of the referendum Polkadot solved the immediate availability issue.

"Entrepreneurs know what they need to accomplish, but not always how to get there. Our @Polkadot ambassadors listened intently."
Parity's Shawn Coe immersed himself at Miami Mega Week - and was impressed with the vibes.

Berlin is lovely in summertime so if you've never seen @gavofyork live on stage then now's your moment.

Decentralization isn’t the goal.
It’s how you get to the good stuff: resilience.
Resilience against downtime.
Against capture.
Against nation-state influence.
Some chains chase adoption by trading off control. Polkadot doesn’t play that game.
It optimizes for resilience, then the rest.
The receipts:
🔹 172 Nakamoto Coefficient
🔹 Fully on-chain governance
🔹 Secured by validators across 6 continents
Details ↓
Nakamoto Coefficient is the number of node operators that control more than one-third of all stake on the network.
Polkadot ranks highest among major chains and continues to set new ATHs with its active validator set expanding to 600 via Referendum 1484.
More validators means more independent actors and more resilience.
xitter.cf/Polkadot/status/190670…
OpenGov is Polkadot's on-chain, community-led governance. No multisig councils. No shadow committees. Only voting DOT holders.
xitter.cf/Polkadot/status/183164…
@Web3foundation's Decentralized Nodes Program takes things next level. In the latest cohort, they supported self-hosted node operators around the world and incentivized hardware + setup diversification. xitter.cf/Polkadot/status/190991…
This is what protocol-level decentralization looks like.
For Polkadot, it was never about the vibe.
It’s about having permissionless, sovereign, censorship-resistant tech when it matters most.
Centralization = Single Point of Failure
The Decentralized Nodes Program by @web3foundation supports node operators across diverse regions and hosting setups.
Decentralization = Resilience
Globally distributed validators ensure Polkadot remains the most secure network in Web3.

Huge 🙏 PBA Lucerne-loved it! 💙 Met some UGC game devs 🎮, artists🧑🎨 and @USCHill and I could have done more sessions on the crypto regulation + @polkadot's place it it's history based on Q&A 🙋♀️ Off to see my dear friend @joepetrowski make history 👀 Stay tuned 🔥 🚲 ⛷️ If he has crossed the finish line, I'll be on the Game Souk 3-330pm CET; @Signum_Eliza (head of IP development) and @SignumKeshav (analyst / head of research) will host today!
I believe in a multi-chain world that supports all builders. And it’s time to champion the UK so young entrepreneurs and builders can thrive in this great country, not flee it!
That’s why when @SuperteamUK asked… I gave a resounding “yes” to joining PAB!
This is a no-BS, proactive group of founders, legal experts, former regulators, tax specialists and policy thinkers. All with one goal in mind…giving crypto policy in the UK the serious shake-up it needs 🇬🇧 🔥
We aim to counter FUD through accessible campaigns that move the needle on policy, challenge outdated narratives and open doors for Web3 talent and opportunities.
The UK has the potential to be a global leader in innovation, tokenisation and digital assets, and we’re here to help make that a reality.
Just spoke about this recently on Regulatory Rewind 👀
xitter.cf/paritytech/status/1907…
We’re launching the Superteam UK Policy Advisory Board (PAB).
Policymakers are making big decisions on crypto. But are they doing it with the people actually building it?
Our goal with pro-crypto work in the UK is to bring the best minds together. Founders, legal experts, former regulators, tax specialists, and policy thinkers.
The PAB will help shape our campaigns and push for better regulation, with one thing in mind: growth.
We can't do this alone, and we'll go further with Superteam UK’s PAB.
More soon.
