About Blockchains

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 POL. 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.

About Tron

Tron is a blockchain platform focused on decentralized entertainment and content distribution. It offers high throughput, supports dApps, and uses the TRX token for transactions and governance. Tron aims to disrupt traditional entertainment industries by providing a platform for content creators to distribute and monetize their content directly to consumers.
