Polygon (MATIC) is a leading Layer-2 scaling solution built to make the Ethereum blockchain faster, cheaper, and more efficient. It uses advanced technology to process transactions off-chain while maintaining the same security as Ethereum. Polygon supports thousands of decentralized apps (dApps), NFTs, and DeFi projects, offering users lightning-fast transactions with minimal gas fees. The native token, MATIC, is used for staking, paying transaction fees, and participating in network governance. With strong partnerships and continuous ecosystem growth, Polygon has become one of the most popular blockchain platforms for developers. Its goal is to create a fully interoperable multi-chain system that connects different blockchains into a single, scalable Web3 network.
