Building the Future of Web3 Apps on Polkadot: An Application-Centric View of Web3

Описание: We talk about multi-chain madness, scaling to possibly 100s of millions of transactions per day, and a mistake crypto app developers KEEP making 😭
Also: 🧠 Why bad UX on Polkadot is no surprise 👀

In this episode, we speak with Joe Petrowski, Runtime Lead at the Web3 Foundation, where we dive into the advantages and challenges of building on Polkadot. Joe shares his thoughts on the benefits of Polkadot's multi-chain architecture and the hurdles developers face when integrating various chains. Throughout our discussion, Joe highlights the importance of improving developer tooling and user experience to make building on Polkadot easier and more efficient.

Additionally, we discuss Plaza, a visionary new plan introduced by Rob Habermeier, co-founder of Polkadot. Plaza aims to consolidate the functionality of Polkadot into a single, highly-scalable system chain, acting as a hub for users, developers, liquidity, and applications. Unlike the current fragmented system where different chains handle different functionalities (like wallets, apps, and user coordination), Plaza seeks to bring everything under one roof, vastly simplifying the user experience and cutting costs.

What’s particularly exciting is how Plaza will leverage Polkadot’s scaling capabilities to handle thousands of transactions per second today and potentially hundreds of millions of transactions per day in the future. This means better performance for developers and users alike, all without compromising on decentralization. How is decentralization not compromised? Engineering advances like NOMT, Optimistic Concurrency Control, and ZK Merkle Proving will allow Plaza to perform efficiently with normal machines, ensuring accessibility for full nodes without requiring supercomputers.
