The Enjin Room, Ep. 6: Polkadot Parachain Pioneers

Polkadot is paving the way for Web3, enabling scalability and communication between specialized blockchains in a secure, trust-free environment.

In this episode of The Enjin Room podcast, Enjin COO Caleb Applegate spoke with leaders of the first batch of projects to secure a parachain slot on the Polkadot network.

Episode Overview

"The essence of Polkadot is this: You can create a specialized blockchain. You can make that blockchain really good at a specific thing. You can make it focus in and specialize at a given task.

At the same time, you can connect these specialized blockchains together. It’s this connection part that’s the special part. You get this situation where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
