About Portfolio
Polkadot (DOT) is the native token of the Polkadot network, a scalable and modular Layer 1 blockchain built to support interoperability between multiple specialized chains. The protocol enables secure communication and data exchange across independent blockchains through its unique relay chain and parachain architecture.
Governance & Token Utility
The DOT token is used for governance, staking, and bonding. Token holders can participate in on-chain decision-making, secure the network by nominating validators through the Nominated Proof of Stake model, and bond DOT to support new parachain slots and network expansion.
