## Polkadot News

With the Ending Period beginning in approximately 15 hours, Interlay is in the lead in the current parachain lease auction. [https://parachains.info/auctions](https://parachains.info/auctions)

Interested in experimenting with Agile Coretime on Rococo? Santi Balaguer from Parity has posted details and instructions here: [https://twitter.com/SantiBalaguer/status/1716796073182724405](https://twitter.com/SantiBalaguer/status/1716796073182724405)

Please note that there is no need for individual users to issue crowdloan.refund extrinsics. There is generally no action needed by individual users; the crowdloaned DOT should already be in the original crowdloaning account. [Polkadot Support](https://support.polkadot.network/support/solutions/articles/65000177342-crowdloans-faq)

For more details on how this process works, please see the Polkadot Wiki: [Web3 and Polkadot - Polkadot Wiki](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/learn-crowdloans#withdraw-crowdloaned-tokens)

Referendum 211, to upgrade Polkadot to runtime v1’000’000, is now up for vote. However, no DD has yet been placed. [https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/211](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/referenda/211)

## Kusama News

With slightly under three days left in the current parachain lease auction, Zero has been in the lead the vast majority of the Ending Period. [https://parachains.info/auctions/kusama](https://parachains.info/auctions/kusama)

Referendum 297, to upgrade Kusama to runtime v1’000’000 is now up for vote. [https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/297](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/referenda/297)

Note that as it is on the Whitelisted Track, it will also need to be whitelisted by the Polkadot Technical Fellowship. For details, see [Polkadot OpenGov - Polkadot Wiki](https://wiki.polkadot.network/docs/learn-polkadot-opengov#the-polkadot-technical-fellowship)
