Pioneering the Future of Web3 with QuickNode and Polygon Labs
Empowering builders and developers by improving blockchain infrastructure, enhancing scalability, and enabling mass adoption.
There's a familiar narrative in the web3 space that the lack of accessibility, scalability, and interoperability are the prevailing roadblocks to mass adoption. And while these issues might exist, it's important to look at how far we've come in such a short time — and how bright the future is. The blockchain ecosystem is in a state of constant evolution and dynamic progress. Beginning with Bitcoin as the first foray into decentralized digital currency, the landscape has experienced one iteration after another. Ethereum marked a significant development, introducing programmable smart contracts and the foundation for decentralized applications (dApps). With Ethereum, we saw what is possible when out-of-the-box thinkers meet cutting-edge technology — a trustless, equitable, and decentralized internet. The evolution continues with Layer-2 solutions. QuickNode and Polygon Labs are on a mission to clear the perceived roadblocks and push the entire blockchain ecosystem forward.
Possibilities
Powerful infrastructure Give developers tools like QuickNode’s globally-balanced infrastructure and Polygon Labs’ infinite scalability
Ease of development Provide developers with APIs, tools, insights, and resources that allow them to build memorable projects
Composability and interoperability QuickNode and Polygon zkEVM are a perfect example of a compatible, developer-friendly experience
Educate builders Provide the resources, guides, and documentation for anyone to get started, right out of the box
Blockchain Challenges
01.
Scalability issues Rising network congestion and slow transaction speeds, coupled with high gas fees, deter users and developers from fully embracing blockchain technology.
02.
Accessibility barriers The complexity of blockchain technology and the lack of user-friendly tools and resources hinder widespread adoption and accessibility for users and developers alike.
03.
Fragmented infrastructure Inefficient and insecure systems, along with incompatibility between different platforms and networks, contribute to a fragmented infrastructure landscape.
INTRODUCING
Since its founding in 2017, QuickNode has emerged as the go-to solution for businesses and innovators requiring best-in-class blockchain development tools for speed, reliability, and security. Handling over seven billion blockchain requests daily, QuickNode boasts a 2.5X faster response time than competitors and 99.99% uptime across 20+ chains and 35+ networks. With a user-friendly interface and a robust multi-chain developer tool suite, QuickNode has become the preferred choice for top Web3 businesses and global brands. Polygon is often appropriately associated with ease of use and scalability. The original Polygon PoS chain is known for low transaction fees and high functionality. It has also been linked to many flagpole Web2 brands that have transitioned into Web3 — like Starbucks, Reddit, and Nike. Polygon Labs made huge strides to connect with the web3 gaming community through strategic collaboration and developer resources. Polygon zkEVM is a breakthrough Ethereum scaling solution that focuses on seamless integration and enhanced performance for users and developers by leveraging zero-knowledge proofs for increased throughput and security. It's clear that Polygon is a broader blockchain ecosystem that is tailored toward scalability and user experience.
