Additionally, there is growing optimism surrounding global events related to the blockchain in the coming weeks.

Polkadot is also gearing up for exciting events in the near future. The project will be at Consensus 2024 from May 29 to May 31, with a presence at booth 1209 to showcase the brand, ecosystem projects, and offer merchandise to attendees.
Following that, Polkadot Decoded is scheduled for July 11 to 12 in Brussels, Belgium, featuring over 100 speakers and 100 blockchain projects. Noteworthy news includes the inclusion of Polkadot ecosystem project DePIN in Mastercard’s Start Path program.
Amidst these favorable announcements, Polkadot appears well-positioned to capitalize on the upcoming crypto bull run. The question on everyone’s mind is how high DOT’s price will rise and whether it can surpass its previous ATH. Currently, according to CoinMarketCap, DOT is priced at $7.
