Polkadot is still holding strong at rank 12 , and now has 20+ percent increase so my question is how much are you expecting  DOT to reach ?

Just prepare your pockets well and be patient
but please understand that its existence does not serve you, take advantage of your own opportunities.

Polkadot has risen around 172% since October 2023 while btc has risen around 127% at the same time. So what are you talking about?

Even meme tokens bring more value to crypto.

And since biggest security issue in crypto for a while has been cross-chain bridge vulnerabilities, why would people want to invest to a coin, that's basically build around that subject?

Polkadot 2.0 is something the community is waiting for. It is not unnatural for some top project to move slowly at the beginning. All these projects will catch up later on, and I have also heard that Dot is going to be deflationary in the future. That means no more inflation, which will give it more potential upward momentum. Like dot matic is also not moving that much but it will eventually with its rebranding and new AGG layer update. Its just the start of the market and i think all the major coin like dot, matic, link will go up eventually.
