PoS: True Power
We have consciously built the PoS chain to support arbitrary state transitions, which are EVM-enabled. Unlike most other sidechains, there is no change in the circulating supply of your token when it crosses the bridge.
Speed
Time efficient bridging, deposit and withdrawals
Taking the maximum throughput for Ethereum pegged at 15tx/s and making it exponentially faster (upto 65,000 tx/s)
Non-custodial architecture
Experience the power of Ethereum with the speed of Polygon
Flexibility
Easy and fast integration with other Polygon products you use and love like Hermez REST API
One checkpoint and that is all, your assets are across
Owned and driven by the community
Easy-to-use wallet on web and mobile
Scalablility
EVM compatible
Compatible with major ERC standards
Secured by permissionless validators and checkpoints submitted to Ethereum
Low entry and exit fees so you can build bigger and faster
Built for flexibility and faster withdrawals
Off-chain scaling solutions can unlock their full potential by offloading data availability to Avail. Standalone chains can bootstrap validator security by using Avail for data availability.
What makes PoS unique?
Quick Bridging
