Genesis Shards partners with Polygon for scaling solutions
Genesis Shards has partnered with Polygon (formerly Matic) to increase the scalability of Gen Tickets (NFTs) on the Genesis platform through Polygon’s L2 solution!
With a surge of DeFi protocols being built on Ethereum, transaction times and fees have been skyrocketing. Polygon is widely being recognized as one of the leading players in the ongoing fight for Ethereum scalability — with its plasma-based approach to scaling, Polygon aims at relieving the pressure on the Ethereum blockchain in this rapidly evolving DeFi tech landscape.
Polygon provides solutions for DeFi as well as Web2/Web3 apps to enable the speed and cost-effectiveness needed to create high-quality, accessible user experiences.
Genesis Shards is bringing about the inception of a whole new pre-IDO marketplace by utilizing its NFT swap architecture to introduce liquidity to pre-IDO tokens via ‘Gen Ticket’ NFTs. We would explore Polygon’s L2 solution to increase the scalability of Gen Tickets on our platform. The strategic and long-term partnership would usher in a new era of a scalability-first approach to NFT Defi options.
Through this partnership, the Genesis Shards architecture would consider scaling via the Polygon bridge as it connects to Ethereum. This will consequently result in a low fee environment and reduce block time confirmation.
We are committed to offering the very best in DeFi to our community, and this includes the lowest possible transaction fees possible. Through faster transactions and lower fees — the user experience will improve considerably, enabling smoother, low-friction trades for Gen Tickets.
For Polygon, projects within their ecosystem will be able to establish partnerships with synergistic projects in the Genesis ecosystem. Apart from this, projects will also be able to access the Genesis Partner network consisting of access, ecosystem, and mentor partners.
Additionally, projects building on Polygon will get access to pre-IDO liquidity powered by Genesis Shards.
