Patract recently sorted out several existing product lines, organized and merged developer documents, and launched PatraStore, which basically opened up the technical path of Polkadot Wasm contract development. We have also completed the integration of the first batch of 10 treasury proposals. In PolkaWorld's interview with congressmen, GavinWood once said: "I think we are still in the early stages, but some of Patract's spending proposals for development tools are quite interesting and very popular." We will start the next phase of the development plan and upgrade the official website. For details, please visit https://patract.io.
Recently, we have discussed with some parachains in the community. They all believe that the Wasm contract is a promising infrastructure technology. However, the new contract model developed by the Parity team is only initially stable, and our Wasm development tool set is not yet comprehensive. Perfect, contract standards and resource models need to be fully discussed before they can be implemented. Therefore, at present, several contract parachains in the community have supported EVM compatibility as the main goal in the early stage, including Acala, Moonbeam, Plasm, ParaState, Clover, etc. This is indeed a solution to quickly start the ecosystem.
As an infrastructure technology that will have an important impact on the Polkadot ecology, the Wasm contract needs to obtain a wider range of promotion resources. Our previous plan was to apply for the launch of the system public parachain in the name of Patract, and then promote this set of technologies. To other parachains in the community, this will cause some potential competition, and it will not be possible to unite more community forces for rapid promotion in the early stage.
Patract's goal is to accelerate the transformation of the smart contract industry to the Wasm technology stack. We decided to no longer independently launch Patract Network as a system parachain, but instead focus on becoming a technical solution provider for Wasm contracts, and work with Parity and community parachains to improve contract models, contract languages and development tools, etc., to promote the establishment of Wasm contract open platform . Patract will only maintain the Jupiter testnet and build it into a template test chain, helping the community to design and develop on-chain contract modules and Runtime support, and provide free full-stack tools and service support for DApp developers.
A very important member of the Ethereum ecosystem is Consensys. In the past five years, they have successfully created tools and services such as Metamask, Infura, Truffle, and provided enterprise Ethereum, Codefi, Quroum and other chain-level solutions, which greatly promoted the Ethereum ecosystem. Prosperity. Faced with the emerging Polkadot Wasm contract, Patract is imitating the model of Consensys to quickly make up for the missing components of the ecology.

Acala is the DeFi Hub of the PolkaDot ecosystem. Acala is preparing to launch a series of applications, including liquid DOT Staking (L-DOT), multi-asset collateralized Acala U.S. dollars (aUSD) and an AMM DEX. Acala has custom-developed Acala EVM, which is an Ethereum compatible environment with Substrate's full functionality. At the same time, Acala is also actively researching Wasm contract technology.
