Polygon Founder Explains When Layer 2 Blockchains Will Explode | Sandeep Nailwal

Ethereum and other Layer 1 blockchains are not ready to scale for mass adoption. This usability problem stems from what is known as the blockchain trilemma – a problem in which a coin has to sacrifice either decentralization, scalability, or security. Layer 2s like Polygon play a pivotal role in solving this problem for good. Thanks to Polygon, Ethereum can potentially scale for the next billion users. According to Sandeep Nailwal, the founder of Polygon, it’s only a matter of time until layer 2s explode, ushering in the network of value.
