The co-founder of Polygon, Sandeep Nailwal, believes that reducing complexity is the key to mass scaling of blockchain technology. In a recent interview, Nailwal emphasized that blockchain should be made more accessible and user-friendly for people who are not tech-savvy. By simplifying the user experience and improving functionality, blockchain technologies could achieve widespread adoption and become more mainstream. He also pointed out that the current high gas fees and sluggish transaction speeds are major hurdles that need to be addressed in order to achieve mass scalability.
Polygon, formerly known as Matic Network, aims to solve these issues and increase blockchain scalability by providing a framework for building and connecting Ethereum-compatible blockchain networks. This ‘internet of blockchains’ allows for a future where different blockchains can interact seamlessly with each other. Nailwal’s belief in reducing friction is clearly reflected in Polygon’s approach. The company is focused on improving the user experience by reducing complexity and high fees associated with the blockchain, in an effort to bring this revolutionary technology to the masses.
