"From here, we see only two options: do nothing and allow the current denomination to stand, or conduct a final, binding vote on Polkadot itself.

Designed as part of a broad vision for a web that returns control to individuals over internet monopolies, Polkadot enables blockchain networks to scale, specialize, work together, self-govern, and easily upgrade. https://hubs.ly/H0qxFTS0 | https://hubs.ly/H0qxFTS0

"With a traditional blockchain, if you want to upgrade it you must hard fork. @ParityTech's Substrate has solved this problem with a very unique trick." Watch @bitfalls walk through root calls and how admin functions on @substrate_io chains work. https://hubs.ly/H0qxFR10 | https://hubs.ly/H0qxFR10

If you have voted with conviction for Referendum 52, you can lower it any time until the end of the vote (Friday May 15 at 1pm CEST), as it’s non-binding and will result in your KSM being locked.
