Polygon has unveiled its Polygon 2.0 architecture, heralding its potential to become the Value Layer of the Internet. This new framework boasts unlimited scalability and cohesive liquidity.

Comprising four distinct layers—Staking, Interop, Execution, and Proving—each layer serves a unique purpose, synergizing to streamline ecosystem operations.

The Staking Layer harnesses Polygon's MATIC to decentralize Polygon chains, offering out-of-the-box solutions and fostering a decentralized validator pool.

Validators reap rewards in Polygon tokens and transaction fees, tailored to the chains they validate, with a focus on use cases and community engagement.

The Interop Layer facilitates seamless cross-chain messaging within the ecosystem, simplifying transactions and enabling interoperability via the LxLy protocol.

The Execution Layer orchestrates block production across Polygon chains, encompassing various components like P2P, Database, and Consensus, akin to other blockchain networks.

The Proving Layer, comprising the Common Prover, State Machine Constructor, and State Machine, ensures efficient verification, proof generation, and secure communication across chains.
