About Blockchains

About Concordium

Concordium is a public Layer 1 blockchain platform designed for security, privacy, and scalability. Concordium was among the first to mandate identity verification at the blockchain consensus level while integrating zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) for selective disclosure. Launched on Mainnet in 2021, it embeds encrypted identity into every transaction at the protocol level, enabling accountability while preserving user confidentiality.

Its native cryptocurrency, CCD, powers the ecosystem, facilitating transaction fees, staking, voting, node operator rewards, and serving as collateral in Concordium's DeFi landscape.

The newly appointed CEO and Executive Management team have revealed a focused strategic direction to double down on PayFi, enabling stablecoin issuers, financial institutions, and payment providers to accelerate real-world adoption. With stablecoin settlement volumes projected to reach $300 billion per day by 2025, Concordium delivers an enterprise-ready blockchain infrastructure uniquely suited for secure, programmable money solutions, as well as compliance as required by new regulatory frameworks.

About 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.
