Polkadot (DOT)

💥 DOT is now listed among the tradable assets on @gotymebank Bank, one of the Philippines’ licensed digital banks. GoTyme is a joint venture between the Gokongwei Group — one of the country’s largest conglomerates — and South Africa’s Tyme Group, and already serves over 2 million users.

BITW now manages $1.25B, and with DOT at 0.14% of the index, so the fund currently holds only about $1.75M of DOT. But the real story isn’t the current position, it’s the future inflows. With BITW now trading on NYSE Arca, if it sees a typical 2–10× AUM expansion, every $100M of new capital flowing in will automatically trigger about $140K of DOT purchases. Index funds don’t follow narratives or emotions. If investors buy the fund, the fund must buy DOT. And the fact that DOT passed Bitwise’s strict screens — liquidity, security, compliance — means it is now officially on the list of institution‑ready assets. This is slow, steady, structural demand — the kind that compounds quietly over years. 🤔As more institutional‑grade DOT products emerge, maybe the community should build a public dashboard to track institutional holdings and inflows across all DOT‑related vehicles. I think It’s time to make this data visible.

👀 Why is it that while $DOT keeps printing new lows, @Polkadot is quietly showing up in institutional products? I can only come to one conclusion. Price matters — of course it does. Everyone wants DOT to go to $100. But maybe institutions are looking at something else. They’re looking at resilience, not hype. Decentralization, not shortcuts. Security, not growth-at-all-costs. Whether this is actually Web3 infrastructure that can scale to real users, not just another narrative. These were the things that barely mattered in past cycles. Now they’re slowly being noticed. Recognized. And, most importantly, capital is starting to acknowledge them. I do hope this translates into price. But what matters more to me is this: The values we’ve been stubbornly holding onto for years are finally being validated. This industry isn’t only scams, memes, and airdrops — and @Polkadot proves that.🏄‍♀️

Creative tooling in Web3 has been quiet for a while — and honestly, it needed a shake-up. That’s why this new @mubertapp x @Polkadot launch caught my eye. It’s one of the first attempts to merge AI-generated music, on-chain identity, and creator rewards into a single, real product… not just another concept deck. If they pull this off, it could open a new chapter for how creators actually use blockchain — without the usual friction. Worth keeping an eye on. The waitlist is live → https://t.co/OSNkpu21nj
