- Bifrost secured a lease for a period called 16-23 through a crowdloan.
- Their current lease for para 2030 is for a different time, called lease 15.
- There will be a pause in block production for para 2030 during this lease swap, lasting about 4-8 hours.
- The suggested solution is to clear lease 16-23 and add it to para 2030.
- This process will involve specific steps to release and then reserve funds called DOT.
- The governance track has certain time limits and costs involved, ensuring a smooth transition.
- There may be some risks with how leases are changed, but unlocking funds should happen normally.

lease_admin

Bifrost wants to clear its lease for para 3356 and add the corresponding lease period to para 2030 to avoid an interruption in block production. The suggested solution is to use the Lease Admin governance track, and the cost is a decision deposit of 5000 DOT. The potential risk is that it may affect the normal expiration and unlocking of the two crowdloans, but it is assessed that it will not.

Transfer the Lease of Bifrost Parachain 3356 to Bifrost Parachain 2030 to avoid downtime

Rising Karting Star Seeks Polkadot Partnership(withdrawn)

Hello! Cris_Pap here. I want to tell you about some changes in PolkadotJs. Now, when you ask for DOT, you need to add 10 extra zeros, not 12. 

Before, we used a thing called "treasury->spend(amount, beneficiary)" but it's gone now. Instead, we use "spendLocal(amount, beneficiary)". There's also a new thing called "spend(assetKind, amount, beneficiary, validForm)" which might be about a new payment way, but I don't know how to use it yet.

It would be great if there was a special place to learn about all these changes. If you know one, please tell me in the comments. Thanks and sorry for any trouble!

DOT LATAM DAY is a special event about Polkadot, a big computer network, in Latin America. This year, it was held online on December 15th because the main event, Polkadot LATAM DAY, was postponed to 2024. The event was planned very quickly, in less than a month, but it went well without any big problems.

There were two virtual stages with 66 guests talking about Polkadot in Spanish and Portuguese. They had 45 different talks and discussions that lasted for over 20 hours. Many people watched these talks on YouTube, with a total of 1,212 views.

A proposal has been made to sponsor Polkadot's inclusion in the "LIFT Learning" program by Fenasbac, a server from the Central Bank of Brazil. The program aims to develop interoperability and bridging solutions for the Central Bank. The sponsorship will cover the development of a product using the Polkadot SDK as a Proof of Concept (PoC) with the University of Rio de Janeiro and COPPETEC, overseen by Fenasbac and the Central Bank of Brazil. The goal is to showcase the power of the Polkadot SDK and create a prototype that can be integrated into the National Financial System. The partnership will activate the University of Rio de Janeiro and software houses like COPPETEC to participate in the Polkadot ecosystem, attracting potential developers and creating relationships for future initiatives. Long-term benefits include removing technological and regulatory obstacles for Polkadot to connect with the Brazilian CBDC, making it one of the first public blockchain ecosystems to attract potential use cases of a digitized nation.

Transistor Polkadot North America, LLC has proposed a plan to create a community workspace in New York City for Polkadot teams. The goal is to establish a physical brand presence, drive Polkadot adoption in North America, and nurture a cohesive community. The workspace will be used for:

1. Hosting multichain meetups to attract developers, entrepreneurs, and investors.
2. Developing relationships to win enterprise and startup client business.
3. Building and promoting products to advance Polkadot.

The proposal requests $2,105,000 (approximately 300K DOT) to lease and run the workspace for at least three years. The funds will cover rent, security deposit, utilities, and maintenance. The workspace will be crucial for Polkadot's adoption, as many competitors have a strong physical presence in key tech and finance hubs.

Transistor is a U.S.-based blockchain research and business development firm that aims to reintroduce Polkadot to U.S. enterprise, startup, and investor communities. The workspace will serve as Transistor's headquarters and support high-productivity work within the team.

The proposal highlights the importance of a physical workspace for building strong business relationships and competing with other crypto projects. It also emphasizes the urgency of securing a space in New York City, as commercial rent prices are expected to rise soon.
