Support for Ethereum: the statedgoal is to expand the possibilities developed on the Ethereum blockchain. In addition, to ensure the interoperability and scalability of the blockchain, which is currently saturated. Polygon is called the "Commit chain" of the Ethereum network, in other words, a blockchain that runs parallel to the main network. Faced with congestion on the main Ethereum network, the solutions provided by Polygon as a "second layer" reduce fees and increase the number of possible transactions.
Features:
Polygon's native token is MATIC. It is an ERC-20 standard token. It is used to pay transaction fees and power various protocol products. It works with Proof-of-Stake. This protocol allows transactions to be processed much faster than the parent network, Ethereum, and drastically reduces transaction fees. However, Polygon is completely dependent on Ethereum, in the sense that this second layer called "Polygon" supports the parent Ethereum layer. If, one day, Ethereum were to be fundamentally disrupted, there is a good chance that Polygon would be too.
