Polygon Solutions to Ethereum Scaling Challenges: An Overview
Ethereum's scaling problem is a long-standing issue, with its steady evolution ensuring safety and decentralization. Polygon 2.0 aims to address this by enhancing Ethereum's scalability. Polygon 2.0 consists of Polygon PoS, Polygon zkEVM, and Polygon CDK, designed to be interoperable for swift cross-chain transactions. These chains, which mirror the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), enable developers to develop applications challenging to achieve on account-based systems like Ethereum. Polygon Labs plans to transform Polygon PoS into a zkEVM validium, mirroring Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) capabilities.
