According to the Polkadot Weekly Report released by PolkaWorld, Gavin Wood recently released the 2024 annual summary, believing that 2023/2024 is the watershed of Polkadot, and its core goals have undergone a significant shift. From focusing on achieving the limited range of product goals in the white paper, it has shifted to optimization, stability improvement and product refinement to better meet market needs. Technically, many major advances have been proposed and implemented in 2024; ecologically, projects represented by Mythical Game are pushing Polkadot performance to the limit; in addition, Gavin also proposed JAM in 2024 to further realize his Web3 vision. In short, 2025 is worth looking forward to.
In addition, Gavin proposed Proof-of-Personhood, which will be launched in 2025 and aims to become an antidote to the threat posed by generative AI to the free world. It provides a trusted identity solution for Web3 and Web2 by algorithmizing the concept of "personality" and combining ZK technology to protect privacy.

FIFA Rivals: Web3 game in cooperation with FIFA;
PudgyParty: Web3 game in cooperation with Fat Penguin;
