The community’s first exploration of new frontiers (i.e., networks) for the Aave Protocol was V2 market launch on Polygon. A scalable sidechain of Ethereum that allows for fast and low fee transactions with a nascent ecosystem of applications including community favourite Aavegotchi, decentralised exchange Quickswap as well as Chainlink oracles.
Nearly a hundred validators secure Polygon's Proof-of-Stake algorithm with back ups occurring every 30 minutes on the Ethereum blockchain.
Following huge success of V2 markets, V3 of the Aave Protocol has been deployed on Polygon.
