Proposal on Advancing gKSM and aKSM Integration

Core Argument

As Polkadot's sole canary network token, KSM carries the mission of bold exploration and innovation for the Polkadot ecosystem. With JAM's upcoming launch, the Kusama network will become Polkadot's optimal scaling solution, and its value deserves broad market recognition.

Supporting Arguments

1. Polkadot's Strong Commitment to Kusama

Polkadot officially gifted 10 million DOT tokens to Kusama, a move that fully demonstrates the importance Polkadot places on the Kusama network. From a value anchoring perspective, Kusama's valuation floor should reach at least 10 million DOT.

2. Current TVL Remains Undervalued

The total TVL of DOT locked on the Hydration protocol currently falls far below the 10 million DOT gifted to Kusama by Polkadot. This indicates that KSM's value has yet to be fully realized, leaving significant room for valuation appreciation.

3. Pivotal Role in the JAM Era

Following JAM's launch, the Kusama network will play a critical role as Polkadot's best scaling solution. This represents not only an inevitable technical choice but also a key strategic layout for ecosystem development.

Action Plan

Based on the analysis above, it is necessary to prioritize the integration of gKSM (similar to gDOT) and aKSM (similar to aDOT).

This will directly deliver the following benefits:

• Boost Hydration's TVL: Attract more liquidity into the Hydration ecosystem by introducing mainstream wrapped assets
• Strengthen Market Confidence: Demonstrate the project team's long-term commitment to the Kusama ecosystem, forming a dual-coin (DOT/KSM) ecosystem loop
• Unlock Network Value: Enable KSM's intrinsic value to gain fuller market recognition
