Polkadot has been making major gains since the news of the parachains auction was announced. During the past 24 hours, the token has gained by around 16%. Due to increased demand, the token also reached an all-time high of $53 during the past 24 hours.
Recently, the network announced that a proposal was passed to allow registration and offer crowd loans to developers. The network uses the DOT native token, which, as aforementioned, is making new highs.
Polkadot Proposal Passes
In a posting on Twitter, the DOT developers stated that the proposal had passed. A platform for the Polkadot team also posted details showing that with the upcoming upgrade, developers could register parachains, and if their projects were approved by the Polkadot Council, they would get crowd loan funding.
The date for the parachains launch has been set at November 11, 2021. The first stage of the parachains auction will go for five weeks, where one auction will happen weekly. In June, the parachains were deployed on the Kusama network. 11 parachains have already been auctioned on the canary network.
