transaction speed and high network latency, blockchain gaming lags

behind traditional PC and console gaming systems. The developers

and gamers will be able to build and play games more effectively with

polygon’s commit chain scaling technology and the Ethereum network

working together. Polygon’s ability to help grow the blockchain

gaming industry could not come at a better time as a non-fungible

token (NFTs) and NFT marketplaces are driving the popularity of the

blockchain and crypto industry at large—

with many gamers buying,

selling, and trading different types of in-game NFTs. Top gaming and

NFT dApps such as Aavegotchi, Neon District, Z ed Run, and Cometh

have scaled their user experiences with a polygon.

Other use cases: Polygon is also built for many other use cases, like

helping realize the fast settlement times needed to allow

decentralized exchanges (DEXs) to offer users faster and cheaper

trading. Protocols like Curve and mStable have also ensured low cost

and low slippage stable coin swaps. Additionally, polygon’s plasma

scaling solution is able to expedite cross-chain atomic swaps of

tokenized and non-tokenized assets. Most dApps need a way to sign

transactions without submitting private keys due to user privacy

concerns. Because of its scalability enhancements, polygon helps

enable an open identity framework for dApp design and use.

Mining and its steps

In mining, the selection criteria being the highest fees paid, the miners

select the transactions to be included in their block from the pending

transaction pool.

The required computational work is intensively done on account of the set

Ethereum network protocol’s difficulty for generating a block. The

difficulty level is proportional to the amount of computational power used

to mine Ethereum and serves to secure the network from attacks and tune

the speed at which the blocks and block rewards are generated.

The system of generating hashing power from the computer hardware is

PoW, which is a competitive activity undertaken by miners to write

transactions to a new block that subsequently is added to the blockchain. A

payout of a few ethers is given to the miner for each block mined on the

Ethereum.
