DevX
- We started working on the “From FRAME runtime to Cumulus runtime” doc guide
- We started work on the XCM cookbook, a collection of examples meant to help users get their questions answered and get started
- We’re looking into a new tool for submitting XCM programs to make regular use cases simpler
- We’ve created a basic example showcasing a migration using the MBM framework
- Unsure wether to write a runtime or a smart contract? We’re providing a detailed explanation of the differences of both
Staking
- We’re reworking the delegation staking primitive changes into its own pallet. This is part of the work for enabling governance fund to be usable for governance.
- Paged payout reward changes are now live on Westend
and is now integrated with the Staking Dashboard (thanks to @ross). The changes can be followed by DApp builders to integrate it into their own DApp if they are affected. We are also working on a doc to detail the changes needed for the DApps that are integrating with staking. These changes help with the overall goal of making Staking system PoV friendly and moving it into its own system parachain. - We’re changing the disabling strategy in staking as per the new disabling strategy
- The stake-tracker is soon audit-ready and will then be rolled out

- Fungible conformance tests & fungible fixes PR ready to merge now (waiting for reviews
), this helps us catch and prevent bugs in the most critical FRAME logic - Improvements to Substrate
try-runtimefeatures, migration patterns, and our own usage of these features (#2264, #2336, #2515, #2108, #1985) - Improvements and fixes to

derive_impland fixed any issues (#2409, 2476, #2594) -derive_implis now used across the polkadot-sdk, enabling us to release features without causing a break in API (most of the time) feeless_ifsyntax was merged (#1926, #2294, #2396)- In order to make FRAME more secure and prevent block authors from cheating, we’re introducing a mechanism to enforce inherent order
- Make MQ pallet reentrancy safe was merged, this will unblock snowbridge deployment so we can finally have bridges
