Those who want to set themselves up on Polkadot should consider to take some help from the YouTube video provided by the Technical educator from Web3foundation.
Polkadot tweeted: “Non-transfer proxies are accounts that allow any type of transaction except balance transfers. @krichard410, Technical Educator at @web3foundation explores what they are, how they work, and how to set one up yourself on @PolkadotJs.”
Sydney Ifergan, the crypto expert tweeted: “Polkadot (DOT) makes it possible for those who do not have the funds to lease a parachain to be able avail a loan.”
Explanation are provided for what are Parachains – the specialized shards on Polkadot. There is also a process to obtain a parachain slot.
Polkadot is the blockchain network, which scales by spreading transactions across multiple parallel blockchain shards called parachains. The specialized shards from Polkadot provides projects and their community with control over their projects and related agencies. Most of the teams, who are working on the Parachain are progressing towards their milestone and many of them have added a parachain to the Rococo testnet.
It is important to note that the parachain slots are limited and it will be auctioned off in unpermissioned candle auctions. As opposed to auctioning one parachain after another, very likely they will be auctioned off one by one. Only “one parachain auction” will happen at any point in time.
The cost of the Parachain will be based on supply and demand. Anyone leasing a parachain slot will be able to get the price decided by a meaningful estimate as to the DOT availability. If there are 100 parachain slots available 50% of DOT is available for parachain staking and 50% is the ideal rate of staking, then people will be using DOT for staking or parachain bonding and all the parachain slots will be costing the same.
It is important to note that the actual cost of the parachain slot is not similar to the size of the parachain bond. The bond will be returned at the end of the lease period. And, the actual parachain cost will be very accurately characterized as the opportunity cost from not staking the DOT.
At present, they are focusing to support up to 100 parachains. Before the end of the year, more of parachain support is expected to be added. Several teams have deployed the parachains on the Rococo testnet.
Many projects who are looking to launch a parachain are the startups and they might not be able to afford the bond (DOT) that is required for the parachain lease purchase. Also, several DOT holders will want to lend (loan) their DOT projects to those who need DOT for a bond in exchange for some consideration (money). Projects can choose to buy loans from any DOT holder.
