Kick Out the DOTs and Pump Up the JAM
Colorful Notion has initiated a Polkadot Wish for Change proposal to rename the DOT token to JAM by the end of 2026. It argues that DOT will always be too closely linked to securing parachains, and that the rebranding to JAM will help reframe the network’s evolution as a trustless supercomputing protocol.
ParachainThey Could’ve Called it Solkadot
The JamZig team has successfully executed Solana smart contracts in its Zig implementation of JAM. This successful proof-of-concept leads the way for the Polana Network project, which aims enhance Solana compatible development possibilities with the parallel processing power of JAM.
Kit Out the JAMs
Gavin Wood has announced the initial launch of Parity’s JAM SDK, written in Rust. While still in an early stage of development, it is functional for the development of JAM services and authorizers. It currently consists of three components: JAM Types and PVM Common is the basic API of the SDK which provides the necessary tools for creating Services and Authorizers. JAM Bootstrap Service and Null Authorizer consists of two basic PVM modules to help set up a basic configuration suitable for JAM Genesis. JAM PVM Builder is a tool to compile and package services or authorizers into executable PVM binaries for JAM.

What is JAM? The FUTURE OF POLKADOT
In this video and thread I show what JAM is, its theory, the news it will bring to the Polkadot ecosystem, advantages and benefits for users and developers, comparisons with other blockchains such as solana and ethereum, problems of those blockchains that are not presented in JAM and how JAM seeks to help those blockchains solve these problems through the incredible interoperability of this technology and much more.
