Dear community,
We would like to inform you that, after careful consideration and in light of the current market conditions, we have made the decision to withdraw the proposed partnership between Polkadot and MotoGP.
Our intention has always been to build a long-term strategic collaboration that would foster the adoption of blockchain technology within the world of MotoGP. While we firmly believe in the potential of this vision, we recognize that the present circumstances are not ideal to move forward with the proposal in a responsible and sustainable manner.
We are truly grateful for the interest shown by the community and for all the feedback received. We hope to be part of future initiatives within the Polkadot ecosystem once more favorable conditions are in place.
Thank you for your understanding.
