Here's a simple summary of the proposed changes to Polkadot:

*   **Stop Burning DOT:** The network will stop destroying DOT tokens from fees and other activities.
*   **Save DOT in a New Pool:** Instead of being burned, that DOT will be saved in a new account called the DAP.
*   **Slash Money Goes to the Pool:** DOT taken from misbehaving validators (slashes) will also go to the DAP pool.
*   **Validators Need More Skin in the Game:** Validators must lock up at least 10,000 DOT of their own and charge at least a 10% fee.
*   **Protect Nominators:** Regular stakers (nominators) will not lose their DOT if a validator they back misbehaves.
*   **Faster Unbonding:** Nominators can get their staked DOT back much faster, within 1-2 days.
*   **Goal:** These are the first steps to build a new system for managing DOT and prepare for future upgrades.

2. The proposal also wants to clean up some bounties that are not active anymore. These bounties will be closed because they have been inactive, don't have enough money, or don't have enough information. The bounties to close are:
   - Bounty 42
   - Bounty 60
   - Bounty 61

Epico is a project that aims to make Polkadot SDK chains compatible with Ethereum wallets like MetaMask. This will allow users to interact with Polkadot-based applications using their existing Ethereum wallets without needing extra plugins or understanding new account formats. The project has received interest from several parachain teams, including Mythos and Frequency. 

The main goal of Epico is to make Polkadot-based apps more accessible to the largest wallet user base in the blockchain ecosystem, which is currently dominated by Ethereum users. By reducing the learning curve and eliminating the need for new wallets, Epico can boost the adoption of both new and existing dApps built on Polkadot SDK.

The project is seeking funding to complete the development and open-source rollout of Epico. The budget requested is $246,330 USDC, which will be used for finalizing the code, writing documentation, conducting peer reviews, and providing technical support for the first three months after open-sourcing. The project plans to open-source Epico under the Apache 2.0 license upon completion, giving the community full access to the codebase.

BlockDeep Labs, the team behind Epico, has a history of contributing to the Polkadot ecosystem, including developing the Mythos parachain, providing code reviews for 20 teams, and developing smart account abstraction and XCM Tracer.

Polkadot aims to become a top 5 blockchain by increasing real-world usage and developer adoption. They propose an on-chain fan engagement platform with Inter Miami CF (IMCF) to achieve this. The platform will include free-to-play trivia, rewards, social media incentives, and educational content for IMCF's global soccer audience. This initiative will drive wallet creation, on-chain transactions, and developer engagement. New fans will be introduced to crypto through a simple, free-to-play environment, becoming active Polkadot users. The team has a proven track record in delivering large-scale, compliant blockchain solutions. The platform's architecture is designed with U.S. and international regulations in mind, and funding will be milestone-based in stablecoins. By combining IMCF's popularity with decentralized blockchain technology, Polkadot can gain near-term adoption and long-term market leadership.

W3PI Token Index is a new type of Programmable Index Product (PIP) built on Polkadot. It combines decentralized asset exposure, legal protection for users, and upgradeable smart contract logic. W3PI will be the first decentralized non-custodial on-chain index token that tracks a dynamic basket of ecosystem tokens using programmable, transparent rules. The project includes smart contract and front-end development, setup of a Swiss GmbH, and incorporation of a Swiss Trust to own the protocol and hold user funds separately from any private entity.

The bounty is divided into three categories: Technical Development ($78,000), Operational GmbH ($56,000), and Swiss Trust ($52,000 for setup and $16,000 for endowment), totaling $202,000 USD (DOT equivalent). The curator will verify code deployments, audits, and GitHub releases, confirm legal documents, and trigger milestone payments based on proof of delivery. The governance and ownership model includes upgradeable smart contracts with ownership held by a Swiss Trust, protecting user funds from any private entity. The GmbH receives fees only from the protocol fee wallet, and all code will be open-source. Licensing will be MIT or Apache 2.0 for code, and legal documents will be available through links. The estimated completion timeline is 9-12 months.

NFTMozaic is starting a new program to help early-stage projects create NFT apps on Polkadot. They will give money to about 20 projects to make simple, user-friendly apps that people can use. The projects need to focus on getting people to use their apps, like making wallets and doing things on the blockchain. The projects should be about things like games, entertainment, or using NFTs for businesses, not just art or collectibles. The NFTMozaic Council and a special team will choose the projects and make sure they follow the rules. The projects need to show how their app will be good for users and how it can grow if it becomes popular.
