Exploring Polkadot 2.0’s Agile Coretime through a visual concept

I created this banner using ChatGPT to visually explain how Polkadot 2.0 changes the way its decentralized compute resources can be allocated to Rollup chains.

 

The central idea I wanted the visual to communicate:

One Core → shared computational resource → multiple Rollup chains

 

In Polkadot 1, a project that secured a dedicated Core through the parachain auction had access to the computational resources of that Core for its lease period.

 

This meant that when the project did not require the Core’s full computational capacity, some of that resource could remain underutilised.

 

Polkadot 2.0’s Agile Coretime introduces a more flexible way of accessing these resources.

The visual represents this by showing:

Rollup Chain A → 40% of the Core’s resource

Rollup Chain B → 35% of the Core’s resource

Remaining capacity → available for other usage

 

The purpose of the visual is not to represent an exact protocol allocation, but to make the underlying resource-allocation concept easier to understand:

 

Projects can acquire Coretime according to their requirements, share or split Coretime, sell unused Coretime, and acquire additional Coretime when they need to scale.

 

I created this visual as part of my article exploring Polkadot 2.0’s Agile Coretime framework and how it aims to make Polkadot’s computational resources more efficiently accessible to Rollup projects.
