What is Polygon?
About the coin
Polygon, formerly known as Matic Network, is a pioneering platform designed to enhance Ethereum's scalability and infrastructure development. It provides a structured and user-friendly environment for developers to create various blockchain applications. The platform's core component, Polygon SDK, is a modular and flexible framework that supports the construction of multiple types of applications.
Main features
Polygon enables the creation of Optimistic Rollup chains, ZK Rollup chains, standalone chains, and other necessary infrastructure for developers. It effectively transforms Ethereum into a comprehensive multi-chain system, often referred to as the Internet of Blockchains. This system is comparable to other multi-chain systems like Polkadot, Cosmos, and Avalanche, but with the added benefits of Ethereum's security, vibrant ecosystem, and openness.
How it works
The existing ecosystem built on the Plasma-POS chain remains unchanged with the introduction of Polygon. New features are being developed around the proven technology to meet the diverse needs of the developer community. Polygon is committed to advancing its core technology to scale to a larger ecosystem. The $MATIC token continues to play a crucial role in securing the system and enabling governance. Additionally, there is a transition plan where MATIC will evolve into POL, expanding its role in the AggLayer.
