Polkadot is built as a Relay Chain. This means that it has made a tradeoff in its architecture and it is not a complete blockchain on its own. Polkadot does not have Smart Contract Capability. It only provides security and governance to the Parachains which will link with it. These Parachains will become the Layer One blockchains.
I've been following the Polkadot ecosystem for a long time.
There are projects that I find very successful. But there is also a lack of it. Smart contracts, as you mentioned. They'll figure it out. It is absolutely fantastic.
I don't think it will be the best project, but I think it is guaranteed that it will be in the first 3. I hope they will succeed smoothly.
These primer articles are the various chains are excellent. It is always so hard to keep up with the developments everywhere and this really helps to give a very good idea of what is going on. Thanks for the article.
Scalability, interoperability and decentralization is top 3 significant features for networks to have. So it brings lots of value to Astar as it does first two and also accomplishing decentralization by building smart contracts.
As the world getting digitalized and becoming more familiar with the blockchains, blockchain technology also evolves day by day. Smart contrats load huge values to projects and networks since they are conducting the transactions by themselves. In this sense, Astar will step up in the Polkadot ecosystem. Thank you for introducing it!
Of course I know about Polkadot, but this article reminded me that there are many things I don't know. It would not be right for me to express an opinion on a subject for which I am not well-equipped. So I have a lot to research and learn. Thanks for this useful article and information!
I used to hear the name of polkadot every day, but recently it lost its old popularity, maybe it can go back to the old days with this project.

Have a nice day.
Ethereum virtual machine wow!
Thanks for the update Ruma.

Didn't know about this project, looks promising. It's making my FOMO grow. Looking forward to the second part of the article. Thanks
