According to @alice_und_bob, on Aug 8, 2025, Web3 Foundation hackathon lead @DrW3RK announced a Polkadot 2.0 hackathon partnership with Devpost with three builder tracks—Parachains, Polkadot SDK, and Polkadot Tinkerers—as part of a Polkadot 2.0 Launch Party update; source: @alice_und_bob on X. Traders tracking DOT can treat this as an ecosystem event update with defined scope and venue and should note the post did not include dates, rewards, or registration details; source: @alice_und_bob on X.

According to @Polkadot, the project maintains a multi-chain Treasury, strategically allocating 15% of its capital on parachains to drive decentralized economic activity and liquidity within its network (source: @Polkadot, 2024-06). For traders, this treasury allocation signals increased on-chain activity, potential for cross-chain yield opportunities, and expanded DeFi applications, which could influence DOT token demand and price momentum as ecosystem incentives attract new projects and users.
