- DOT – Future performance thoughts? Wanted to see if anyone is invested in DOT and what are your thoughts going forward. I am an investor in DOT and follow Polkadots and Web3 social media channels to keep up to date with their activities. It's encouraging to see their developer activity is one of the highest after Ethereum and I quite like the way they go about their business without aggressive marketing and hype. This includes the DOT community who aren't out to shill the coin. I'm looking forward to seeing how Polkadot develops going forward as I see a bright future hopefully. Do you see Polkadot being a marketing leader in their field?

- Pro tip for anyone staking with ledger that can’t see rewards (or anyone else who stakes really too) Download Novawallet and add your address in read only mode to easily track your staking rewards. No need to import your private key or anything, you can just add your stash and controller addresses as read only and it lets you easily track your rewards visually day to day without having to use forum categoryscan or ledger software.

- Staked to Pool I am moving from staking to a pool as the dot I have staked is dipping below the minimum. Question I have is do I have to unbond for 28 days to move across. I tried last night and couldn’t see any unavailable dot in the pool when I clear the nominations so wanted to check if this is the correct way? Or am I missing something

- ledger staking shows “inactive” ? I bonded and tried to stake my DOT with Ledger and its been a few days and they all show "inactive", after that I went on Subscan and checked some other Nom's and picked some new ones that were showing "active" and when I picked them in the Ledger they once again show all "inactive" ​ is there a trick to this?

- Talisman stake problem Using talisman to stake on pools. My accounts are not visible on the staking page so i cant stake on pools. On portfolio page my accounts are visible. So i decided to manually stake on the talisman pool 1 through polka.js. But again in the talisman app it doesnt show the staked amount. It still shows my correct balance though. Any thoughts?

- Narrative for future growth ? Hi all. I am looking for a platform to find an answer to a question making me think for a while. I am a quiet big believer of the ecosystem as you may see from my adress however there is one thing that concerns me a bit lately. Polkadots value proposition is really amazing and a lot of good influencers and YouTubers are criticizing polkadot due to the fact that it really has almost no use case. So currently people are holding Dot for two reasons mainly. 1. Staking and 2. Parachain auctions. However there are no other use case or burn mechanism such as Etherum or some other L1’s . So I would really like to ask what is the narrative behind the demand growth of Polkadot in the future? Parachains are utilizing their own tokens polkadot is not needed for a transaction on Astar or Moonbeam. In the current market conditions when 2 year will be over for the first 5 parachain around a hundred million polkadot will become free which would possibly create a huge sell pressure. So I want to ask if the team has a plan for the polkadot to create a use case and demand in the future? You may not ask my question but I would appreciate if you could at least guide me on where to find the answer.

- How do I withdraw? Hello all, So I've tried using the Polkadot JS wallet but the whole process of validators and nominators and the clunky UI is too much for me. I've been trying to withdraw after I stopped validating and waited 30 days for it to 'unbond' but now I see the little padlock symbol, so it appears as though its still locked up? How do I cancel all validating and unbond, and then withdraw to my personal wallet?

- Ledger rebagging help I've been staking through Ledger for a few months, well above the minimum, and it had been working great. However, starting about a week ago I stopped receiving rewards. After checking everything else, it seems like the issue is needing to rebag (side note - annoying that this this is needed, but that's for a different time). Tried to do this through Polkadot.js. It looks like there are two options - "Move up ###" and "Rebag #". However, when I try to do either one I get the dreaded "Call nesting not supported". Is there any way around this? I know that this message is because Ledger had limited functionality, but is it really not possible to rebag through Ledger?

- Pool staking So, when I decide to bond my DOT in the certain pool, bonded amount gets transferred from my address to pools stash address. Does that mean I no longer have access to my DOT and I am essentially transferring my ownership to the DOT which I bonded? What happens if a owner of the pool, for example decentraDOT goes out of business?

- Looking to ditch MetaMask for your ETH needs? We’d love to have you try Enkrypt! Popping in to say MyEtherWallet has never tracked user data since 2015. The same is true with our new multichain wallet Enkrypt (Polkadot, Ethereum and more)! We've been open source since day 1. So if you are looking to test drive a new wallet to ditch the sneaky fox Metamask, we would also love to have you! https://www.enkrypt.com/

- If you’re using Metamask, now might be a good time to switch… Having to use multiple wallets in the Polkadot ecosystem is pretty annoying, even more so when you find out Infura, Metamask's RPC provider are logging IP and wallet addresses of users. At Talisman we're using Automata's 1RPC, a secure and private RPC provider for Ethereum that prioritises user privacy and respects **your** data. If you're using apps on Ethereum, Moonbeam, Astar and other EVM networks it's a good time to break up with Metamask and look for a new bestie. Just sayin'

- Talisman wallet – is it possible to import a ethereum account with a private key? There are the following options to import an account in Talisman wallet: 1. New Account: *Create a new account* 2. Import via Recovery Phrase: *Your Polkadot or Ethereum account* 3. Import via JSON file: *Import your Polkadot.js account* 4. Import from Ledger: *Connect your Ledger wallet* But can I also import an Ethereum account with a private key? For moonbeam balance for example

- Self custody while staking GM! After reading 'bout a million posts, I still haven't figured it out. Maybe it's me, but please do help me :) I would like to stake my DOT but keep custody of my tokens. I haven't got a ledger, not going to buy one. My HW wallet does not support staking from it (Safepal S1). "Fake" staking on Kraken, Binance etc is out of the question. 'Been burned by Celsius, watched everyone's darling, FTX go down, so NO. When using Talisman or the .js extension I would still hold the keys to my DOT. This is great. Still, what could be the potential risks? Let's skip stuff like me losing my keys. I also know about unlocking tokens, that's fine. I don't know. What could possibly happen? What if the team behind Talisman just walks away and closes shop? Can we get our coins out? Can they be hacked? Is there 2FA that protects me long enough to get my funds out? These kind of things. Let's go a bit on the paranoid side and just think/talk about risk, so we can better evaluate it. What about let's say Fearless? Other wallets? Edit: The answer might well be "Talisman is safe, now shove off", but I do need some convincing :) Thank you!

Hope polkadot gain more traction because of decentralisation only protocol that taking true web3 vision with tons of great projects within this ecosystem.
