What’s on the Polygon PoS upgrade to zkEVM Validium?
Hello Hubber. Recent changes in Polygon’s ecosystem are making waves: Polygon 2.0 is coming, Polygon zkEVM is operative and, as an informed community, it’s time we discuss this chain’s structure to make sure it keeps its value for the future.
Polygon is one of blockchain's most important blockchains and will implement many changes in Polygon 2.0 upgrade.
What are the changes and what’s the real impact? There has been a little stir about, for instance, just for the proposed migration from Polygon PoS to a zkEVM Validium. Why is that? Who and what will be affected? Is it for the good of the network?
Lower fees, improved security and more speed will guarantee a nice scalability solution for Ethereum. Will that also work for Polygon?
