Get on-the-spot demonstrations, as well as tech and roadmap updates from the builders pushing the boundaries of Web3.
Low cost, high security
Polkadot provides predictable transaction fees and low-cost maintenance, while remaining among the most secure ecosystems in the industry thanks to its robust shared security model.
The fastest way to build
With Substrate - Polkadot’s blockchain framework - you’ll get unmatched time-to-market. Leverage the power of pre-built modules and focus on developing your own custom business logic.
Plug into a thriving ecosystem
Polkadot’s tightly-knit, fully interoperable ecosystem lets you harness the power of other blockchains and dApps. Get instant access to an abundance of Web3 integrations across chains.
Multichain smart contract deployment
Escape the confines of single-chain smart contracts. Choose from multiple smart contract platforms, write code in several supported languages, and leverage custom functionality across numerous chains.
Secure cross-chain communication
Polkadot enables completely secure communication between blockchains, including the dApps built on top of them. Harness the power of secure multichain integrations to develop new Web3 use cases.
Innovate with forkless upgrades
Upgrade your blockchain as easily as you would conventional software. Polkadot provides forkless upgrades out of the box, so you can continually improve your tech and keep up with the pace of innovation.
Polkadot founder Robert Habermeier will be on the Consensus main stage on April 28th at 12:40 PM CDT. Rob will join the founders of other leading blockchain protocols for a panel discussion on the challenges of developing in crypto winter, scaling the technology to accommodate more users and transactions, and solving real-world problems.
