Polkadot’s latest partnership

Polkadot struck a partnership deal with auditing giant Deloitte, which in itself is a news of great importance. As per the official announcement, Deloitte chose KILT, a Polkadot’s parachain, to enhance its identity protocols. 

With this partnership, Deloitte will leverage KILT’s reusable digital identity credentials to support its Know Your Customer/Know Your Business processes.

DOT mentioned in the Twitter thread that KILT’s technology will eliminate existing inefficiencies around KYC/KYB processes that can put consumer data privacy at risk. It will also address regulatory compliance for banking and DeFi, age verification for e-commerce, private logins, and fundraising.

DOT was slow to respond 

However, things were slow to reflect on Polkadot’s price chart as its value increased marginally in the last 24 hours. According to CoinMarketCap, DOT’s price was still over 1.7% lower than last week. 

At the time of writing, it was trading at $5.77 with a market capitalization of more than $6.8 billion. Santiment’s chart revealed that DOT’s 1-day price volatility declined, which further decreased the chances of a price uptick.

The daily chart shows signs of recovery

Polkadot’s daily chart nonetheless, gave hope for a price uptrend as a few of the market indicators were in the bulls’ favor. For instance, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) registered an uptick. DOT’s Money Flow Index (MFI) also followed the same route, which looked bullish.

However, nothing can be said with certainty as the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Ribbon’s finding was bearish. As per the chart, the distance between the 20-day EMA and the 55-day EMA was increasing, indicating a bearish upper hand in the market.
