According to @alice_und_bob, Polkadot's July 2025 roadmap outlines several key developments with direct trading implications. The upcoming release of Polkadot 2.0 with elastic scaling in August and the launch of Polkadot Pay, a mobile app, are positioned as major catalysts for network usage and DOT price action. Additionally, the roadmap highlights the potential for a 10x performance boost with NOMT, expected in 2026, and the unveiling of the Polkadot Hub platform in October, which aims to drive developer and user onboarding. Key trading events include the Polkadot 2.0 launch party in September, the anticipated decision on DOT ETFs in November, and a comprehensive DOT Tokenomics 2.0 update. These milestones are likely to affect DOT liquidity, volatility, and institutional interest, making DOT a coin to watch in the coming months (source: @alice_und_bob).
