Before @0xPolygonAvail launches soon, we wanted to share an analogy to help you with an often misunderstood web3 primitive: rollups, and their evolved form, validiums.

Modular blockchains work a bit like cargo trucks picking up freight, and traveling up a steep hill.
Drivers have to inspect every transaction before they're loaded.
Once loaded, those drivers have to take every transaction to the blockchain.
[2/11]
But the more transactions are in the truck, the heavier they are.
But the heavier they are, the more gas they need. And gas is expensive!
The same drivers taking the txs up the hill are the ones that have to check and that slows down the whole network.
Web3 is ready for enterprise. The #PolygonNightfall Mainnet beta is here!
Nightfall is the most efficient blockchain solution for enterprises, enabling businesses to orchestrate private transactions for use in supply chains & other key business functions.
Letβs dive in 𧡠[1/5]
Most enterprise blockchain solutions arenβt decentralized. Theyβre private or permissioned, relying on pre-existing trust among parties.
By centralizing the blockchain, it compromises trust.
[2/5]
On the other hand, public blockchain solutions donβt always make sense for enterprises. Theyβre expensive, lack privacy, and make all transactions visible to third parties.
Staking in its current form requires users to lock their tokens for a certain period of time, due to which they lose much-needed #liquidity. Liquid staking protocols enable the issuance of liquid tokens to solve this problem.
[2/5]
Why do you need liquid tokens?
These tokens (csMATIC in the case of @ClayStack_HQ) are #yield-generating #tokens that represent the underlying stake.
So users get the dual benefit of staking rewards and also the opportunity to compound their yields on #Polygon's DeFi.
Polygon Supernets are dedicated, scalable blockchains that aim to ignite mass adoption of Polygon and Web3.
To support this ambitious product and goal, we are announcing a $100M support fund. π
2/5 Polygon Edge is a modular framework that offers a variety of dedicated (aka app-specific) chains, from sovereign EVM chains to full-blown L2s.
20+ projects are already building on Edge; we learned a lot working with these teams and now we are ready for the next chapter. π«
3/5 Enter Supernets, Polygon Edge chains on steroids!
Here's what makes them Super:
βοΈ They are dedicated;
βοΈ Can use $MATIC PoS validators out-of-the-box;
βοΈ They are interconnected;
βοΈ Can be managed/maintained by our Certified Partners;
βοΈ Support any Edge architecture.
