Messari has released the Polkadot Q3 2024 status report, which shows that Parity has launched the Agile Coretime system, replacing the original parallel chain leasing system with a blockchain space sales model, achieving on-demand allocation of network resources. Mythical Games quickly became one of the top three trading projects in the ecosystem after landing on Polkadot in the third quarter, with its NFL Rivals game generating 11 million transactions, accounting for 15% of the total quarterly trading volume. Despite a 53% month on month decrease in Polkadot DAO treasury spending to $28 million, OpenGov activity remained active, with the number of referendums in July 2024 reaching a historic high of 171. In the third quarter, external calls to Polkadot rollup increased by 69% month on month, reaching a daily average of 763000 transactions, mainly contributed by rollups such as Frequency, Litentry, and Mythos. In addition, the number of active validators has increased to 400, and it is expected to reach 500 in the fourth quarter, causing Polkadot's Satoshi coefficient to rise to 112 in the third quarter.
