About Blockchains
About Somnia Testnet
Somnia Testnet (Shannon) is the fastest and most efficient EVM Layer 1 blockchain ever, capable of processing over 1M+ transactions per second with sub-second finality. It is suitable for serving millions of users and building real-time mass-consumer applications like gaming, social applications, metaverses, NFTs, and more, all fully on-chain.
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.
