Polkadot (DOT), a decentralized cryptocurrency, saw a gain in today’s bearish session. Generally, it is difficult to defy the market trends but Polkadot price gains prove otherwise. The red crypto market is considered a market pull-back since the domain gained substantially in recent days. The crypto saw an increase in value after Web3 Foundation, the organization accountable for granting projects on the Polkadot blockchain, passed 400 projects. It had earlier received hundreds of such projects out of which it granted a go-ahead for approximately 40% of those applications.
The Web3 Foundation recently revealed that it had received 1,054 project applications out of which it passed 415. The potential of each project varies considerably and encompasses the entire web3 ecosystem.

They are celebrating their achievements and expect their team to work on:
“A wide range of decentralized use cases, including digital identity and privacy, IoT, games, data storage, and finance.”
