" summary

Snapshot of current state: JAM protocol at 0.9 with audit starting and an SDK plus coreVM demo running on a 6‑node JAM (video frame generator, service messaging, transaction hooks) that works with ~6–12s latency. Concrete measurements claim ZK proving is roughly 10–100x more expensive than elves, a single GPU proof costs ≈$118 for one JAM core slot and extrapolates to ~$9.5M/year per core; Polka Dot security currently costs ≈$500M/year with proposals to cut it below $100M via fiscal reforms, proof‑of‑personhood, core disabling and a native stablecoin.
