What is Polygon?
Formerly known as the Matic Network, Polygon can be best described as a decentralized framework that enables the creation of interconnected blockchain networks. The platform looks to iron out many of the throughput and high transaction fee-related issues that the Ethereum network is routinely faced with via the use of several different novel sidechain solutions.
In addition to providing users with a full-fledged scaling platform, Polygon is also designed to facilitate blockchain interoperability-related transactions via modules that are capable of providing developers with certain niche tools which they can use to devise their very own sovereign blockchains.
MATIC is the native cryptocurrency of the Polygon network and is used for a variety of purposes such as providing owners with voting rights in regard to various governance-related issues (especially those related to Polygon Improvement Proposals (PIPs), bolstering the security of the network via staking and facilitating gas fee payments.
