Polygon
is a Layer 2 scaling solution that achieves scale by utilizing sidechains for off-chain computation and a decentralized network of Proof-of-Stake (PoS) validators.
Polygon strives to solve the scalability and usability issues while not compromising on decentralization and leveraging the existing developer community and ecosystem. Polygon is an off-/sidechain scaling solution for existing platforms to provide scalability and superior user experience to DApps and user functionalities.
It is a scaling solution for public blockchains. Polygon PoS supports all the existing Ethereum tooling along with faster and cheaper transactions.
Wallet:
best part with Polygon is that you don“t need another wallet or another address if you have an Ethereum address in your Metamask.
