Polygon Labs has initially developed a growing suite of protocols for developers to gain easy access to major scaling solutions, including layer 2s (zero-knowledge rollups and optimistic rollups), sidechains, hybrid chains, app-specific chains, enterprise chains, and data availability protocols.

Scaling solutions that Polygon Labs initially developed have seen widespread adoption with tens of thousands of decentralized apps, unique addresses exceeding 207M, over TK million smart contracts and TK total transactions processed since inception. T

he network is home for some of the biggest Web3 projects and well-known enterprises. Polygon Labs is carbon neutral with the goal of leading Web3 in becoming carbon negative.
