About Blockchains
What is BlockDAG?
BlockDAG is a Layer 1 proof of work consensus mechanism that evolves the crypto sphere with a cutting-edge Directed Acyclic Graph structure building on the foundations of Bitcoin & Kaspa
What is Polygon?
Polygon, formerly Matic Network, is a blockchain platform designed to establish a multi-chain system compatible with Ethereum. It employs a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism similar to Ethereum for on-chain transactions, with its native token being MATIC. Functioning as a "layer two" or "sidechain" scaling solution alongside Ethereum, Polygon facilitates quicker transactions and lower fees. Its inception aimed to tackle Ethereum's major challenges, including high fees, subpar user experience, and limited transaction throughput, aspiring to create an "Ethereum's internet of blockchains" or a multi-chain ecosystem of Ethereum-compatible blockchains.
