I want to open this forum post as a place for coordination on efforts to bring life and vibes back to the Kusama ecosystem. Facts Kusama was one of the coolest things to be created in the Polkadot ecosystem. Expect Chaos Cypherpunk / Glitch Vibes: [ex1] [ex2] [ex3] Pushing the Limits (validators,…

Polkadot will be the Web3 Cloud. Kusama should be the Web3 Storm. [image] [image] [image]

My idea and part of what I am trying to create an initial process on is having it be an entry way from Universities. When I started learning about this platform and those who use it, it was clear to me that this was an arena to experiment, like lab class. I have a process play book I am hoping to ex…

I’m very aligned with the mentioned focus topics :slight_smile: any initiative to make our birdie friend more lively is very welcomed :bird: building in the most advanced and decentralized network is what brought me in the first place to PolkadotKusama and made me stay, I hope those attributes can s…

[image] shawntabrizi: There are things Kusama can do that Polkadot cannot, both physically and spiritually. Brilliant - Thank you for the inspiration! Absolutely totally LOVE the dark/cyperpunk Privacy-focused/Privacy-Preserving/ZK-tools orientation … which should be coupled with high innova…

100% on board with this. Privacy on Kusama? perfect fit.

I don’t have much to add aside from sharing that, as an anonymous validator on Kusama, I am very much looking forward to privacy being something we pay attention to and value. Thank you for this great post @shawntabrizi .

Agreed on this point! While Polkadot is a nice, stable, predictable, enterprise-friendly space similar to RHEL or Debian LTS, Kusama should be that bold, brave, reckless canary that thrives on adrenaline. An early JAM release to put the tools in developers hands in an active network is precisely wh…

@sourabhniyogi I must agree with @erin and @Nukeme3 on this. Treating Kusama like a cloud (not hosting smart contracts directly on the “cloud layer”, but as an application on top if it) and using the latest “cloud hardware” (JAM), all is in the spirit of making this Cypherpunk platform as scalable …

Yes. I think Kusama should stay the canary. Worth pointing out that coretime on Kusama is really cheap right now and we are also cutting storage deposits for the PVF to a tenth of what it is right now . I hope that this helps in fostering interesting experiments and explorations.
