‘Quietly rebuilding momentum’ – Scaramucci backs Polkadot despite low network activity
Anthony Scaramucci, founder of SkyBridge, has turned bullish on Polkadot, citing key catalysts that are "quietly rebuilding momentum" for the blockchain. These include recent regulatory clarity from the SEC, which classified DOT as a digital commodity, and a major tokenomics update that hard-capped the supply at 2.1 billion tokens and cut annual emissions by 53%. The launch of the 21Shares Spot DOT ETF was also noted, though it has seen minimal inflows since debuting.
Despite these developments, Polkadot's network activity has declined significantly over the past two years, with weekly active addresses dropping from 16,000 to 5,000. The tokenomics changes briefly boosted trader sentiment, leading to an 18% price rally, but positive momentum faded at the $1.65 resistance level. If macroeconomic uncertainty continues, DOT could retreat to $1.23.
While Scaramucci highlights bullish factors, Polkadot's adoption remains weak, and it is unclear how quickly recent upgrades will reignite growth and lift the token's value.
