JAM: A New Execution Layer for @Polkadot

@Polkadot is getting a serious upgrade.

The JAM upgrade introduces a general-purpose VM directly at the base layer.
It’s modular, parallel, and built for scale.

Here’s why it matters:

Runs Wasm + EVM code

Supports multiple execution environments at once

Ties directly into Agile Coretime for flexible scaling

Most chains bolt on VMs after the fact.
@Polkadot is making the VM part of its core no fragmentation, no hacks.

JAM doesn’t just bring smart contracts to the base layer.
It turns Polkadot into a universal platform for next-gen apps.

Execution, scalability, and interoperability all baked in.

This isn’t just another feature.
It’s the foundation for Polkadot XXX.
