Polygon Proof of Stake (POS) is one of the top scaling solutions in web3, giving developers the speed, security and low-costs needed to launch web3 projects globally. Polygon employs a high-throughput blockchain while maintaining asset security through a robust Plasma bridging framework and decentralized PoS (proof-of-stake) validators.
