Polkadot is a multi-chain interoperability platform that connects specialized blockchains (parachains) to a secure shared Relay Chain. It uses Nominated Proof-of-Stake with BABE block production and GRANDPA finality to achieve ~6-second block times and cross-chain messaging at over 1,000 TPS network-wide. DOT, its native token, powers staking, governance, and parachain slot auctions, while on-chain referendum mechanisms enable rapid, transparent protocol evolution across a decentralized community.
