Polygon: Value Layer of the Internet
Polygon is building the Value Layer of the Internet. The Internet allows anyone to create and exchange information. The Value Layer allows anyone to create, exchange, and program value.
Polygon is building the Value Layer of the Internet. The Internet allows anyone to create and exchange information. The Value Layer allows anyone to create, exchange, and program value. Enter Polygon 2.0!
Polygon 2.0 is an upgrade to the Polygon network that aims to build the Value Layer of the Internet. The Value Layer is a fundamental protocol that allows anyone to create, exchange, and program value, similar to how the Internet democratized access to information.
Polygon 2.0 is a roadmap to offer unlimited scalability and unified liquidity via ZK tech. This includes:
→ Future of Polygon PoS chain
→ Utility and evolution of the native token
→ Transition to greater community governance of the protocol and treasury
A key feature of Polygon 2.0 is
→ Scalability ←
While individual blockchains have limited throughput, Polygon 2.0 addresses this challenge by creating a network of ZK-powered L2 chains that can support an unlimited number of chains.
These ZK-powered L2 chains are unified via a cross-chain coordination protocol, providing users with a seamless experience as if they were using a single chain. This ensures unlimited scalability and unified liquidity, two core issues in a currently fragmented DeFi industry.
With the formal governance process in place, the Polygon community has a significant role to play in accepting and implementing Polygon 2.0. All members of the Polygon ecosystem are encouraged to stay informed, get familiar with Polygon 2.0, and actively participate.
