Polkadot Version 1.1.0: What’s New?
The release of Polkadots’ Version 1.1.0 is accompanied by significant changes and updates that are aimed at improving the overall performance and functionality of the network.

In previous versions of the Proof-of-Stake network, the development was distributed across three separate repositories known as substrate, polkadot, and cumulus. Each of these repositories had its own focus and responsibilities within the ecosystem.
With the release of Version 1.1.0, these three repositories have been merged into a single, unified monorepo polkadot-sdk. This consolidation streamlines the development process, making it easier for developers to manage and contribute to the codebase. It also simplifies the deployment and maintenance of the Polkadot network.
This move towards a monorepo can provide several advantages, including better code organization, improved collaboration among developers, and easier management of dependencies.
Another crucial aspect of the Version 1.1.0 release is its compatibility with specific versions of the Rust programming language compiler (rustc). Ensuring compatibility with the right Rust compiler version is essential for maintaining the stability and reliability of the Polkadot software.
Staking Milestone
Meanwhile, Polkadot gave an exciting announcement at the prestigious TOKEN2049 event, held annually in Singapore that its Staking Dashboard has surpassed an impressive 1 million page visits.
This achievement underscores the growing interest and engagement within the Polkadot community and demonstrates the platform’s importance in the Web3 ecosystem.
The Staking Dashboard, a critical tool for the protocol’s users, gives vital insights and information about the network’s staking activities. Staking is a critical component of Polkadot’s security and governance, allowing token holders to actively engage in network security while earning incentives. The dashboard’s popularity among users demonstrates the growing awareness and participation in staking inside the network.
