BUIDL dApps on Polygon via Spoon Now

Launch via Spoon
#1

Spoon offers direct smart contract access to popular dApps and supports multiple chains, including Ethereum, Polygon, BSC, Avalanche, Fantom, ETF, ETHW, Arbitrum, etc.

As Polygon announced that its zkEVM Public Testnet went live on the 11th of October 2022, which enables cross-compatibility with existing smart contracts, developer tools, and wallets built on Ethereum and Polygon, Spoon can further help developers interact with these smart contracts more easily and quickly to launch their dApp demos for testing.

Polygon Explained

Ethereum was the first programmable chain, and we can actually thank Ethereum for the Polygon network. After all, it was the increased adoption of Ethereum that caused network congestion and astronomical transaction fees. Hence, during the recent crypto bull run, it was economically challenging to develop dapps. As such, a scalable solution was suddenly in high demand. One of the reputable solutions was Matic, which rebranded to Polygon in February 2021.

Polygon is a decentralized Ethereum scaling platform. Thus, it is a potential solution to the congestion issue that the Ethereum network faces. In other words, Polygon serves as a more economically sustainable development platform. It helps ensure that devs can create dapps without spending a fortune on gas fees. Moreover, it’s important to note that it does so without compromising the security of the Ethereum blockchain. Accordingly, it makes a lot of sense to connect your dapp to Polygon.

Furthermore, Polygons’ tagline – “bringing the world to Ethereum” – tells you they aren’t competing with Ethereum. Rather, they are working with the leading development blockchain to help create a sound Web3 infrastructure. Because of this relation to Ethereum, there are many similarities between the two networks. For one, Polygon uses the same token standards (ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155). Also, the native token of Polygon (MATIC) is an ERC-20 token. Regarding MATIC, Polygon users utilize this network’s native currency to govern the chain. Of course, it also serves as a payment for the relatively low transaction fees.

Nonetheless, until the Ethereum merge, Polygon and Ethereum used different consensus mechanisms. However, both chains are now powered by a more scalable alternative – proof-of-stake (PoS).

At the time of writing, Polygon has more than 37,000 dApps, 130 million users with over 3 million daily transactions. Apart from that, Polygon has completed over 3.4 billion transactions since its inception.

Polygon achieved its incredible achievement of crossing 150 million unique addresses.

Why Do We Build dApps on Polygon?

The core component of Polygon consists of Polygon SDK. This Polygon SDK is a very flexible and modular framework that helps build different types of applications.

Polygon allows the developer to create ZK-Rollup chains, stand-alone chains, Optimistic Rollup chains, and other required infrastructures.

With the help of a full-fledged multi-chain system, Polygon aids the transformation of Ethereum as the ‘Internet of Blockchains.’ In addition, the users enjoy the benefits of Ethereum’s openness, security, and vibrant ecosystem.

Here are just a just some of the ways Polygon supports every stage of development for more than 3,000 dApps already building on Polygon:

  1. Infrastructure Support. Polygon has been a go-to scaling solution for developers. It has taken that a step further by partnering with more tooling projects. Now you can make use of decentralized cloud storage on Akash Network, RPC providers and special developer packages on Tenderly, Gelato, Certora, and many others.

  2. Access to PolyBuilders. Tap into an internal group of Polygon developers, Discord partners etc to discover synergies and get assistance in cross collaboration with other teams.

  3. Technical Assistance. Ask inhouse developers for advice, trouble-shooting and best-practices on dedicated Telegram channels.

  4. Analytics Support. Make the most of Dune Analytics dashboards to better understand your users. Polygon community has already created a lot of its own dashboards and Dune Analytics extended their support by launching a bounty program for all Polygon projects. Read more here.

  5. VCs & LPs. Leverage one-of-a-kind venture capital support and incubation, Polygon’s investor network, liquidity providers, and market-maker partners.

  6. Marketing Support. Give your message a greater reach in all regions with Polygon’s official media partners channels, AMAs, Twitter Spaces, and more. You can also accessPolygon’s global expertise network that includes ventures, universities etc. In addition, the wider Polygon community via Polygon Ecosystem DAO recently partnered with Crea8r DAO. Projects can now benefit from top content creators too. Read more here.

  7. Security Audits. Get discounts on security audits from top partner firms in the industry, Showing users your commitment to security doesn’t have to break the bank, and the Polygon ecosystem is here to support.

1.QuickSwap

QuickSwap is one of the most popular Decentralized Exchanges (DEX) built on Polygon. The main feature used by Quickswap is the ERC-20 token bridge. This bridge helps to bridge the tokens over the Polygon network.

The QuickSwap platform also forms liquidity pools using an Automated Market Maker (AMM). The availability of various liquidity pairs enables quicker transactions among the users.

Apart from that, the gas fees charged during the transactions are minimum. Furthermore, the providers of liquidity tokens get rewarded with the native QUICK tokens. In addition to these rewards, the users can also benefit from the dual mining feature.

2.Arc8 by GAMEE

Arc8 is a Play-to-Earn mobile gaming platform where arcade gaming meets crypto. Get to the top, crush your opponents and win GMEE tokens in multiple video games. Your success is only in your hands. Arc8 by GAMEE brings the blockchain experience to millions of gamers.

3.Sunflower Land

Plant crops, chop trees, mine rocks, craft items and collect exotic resources as you build your empire and own the Sunflower Land Token.

From the gold you mine, to the sunflower seeds you plant, everything is an identifiable resource on the Polygon Blockchain.

Over 150 unique tokens to collect and craft!

  • As supply increases for a resource, the price lessens: This means early farmers earn higher rewards for their crops.

  • Move your collectibles and resources freely between friends and on exchanges.

  • An increasing number of items each week > 150+ resources and NFTs

  • Craft limited edition collectibles and NFTs with in-game boosts

Sunflower Land was built by a team of passionate people who love building community driven projects

Built by over 20+ engineers and 30+ designers across the globe. We believe the MetaVerse should be built by the community. The aim of Sunflower Land is to build a ‘plug and play’ MetaVerse. Game designers, artists and developers can launch their own tokens, NFTs and build out the rest of Sunflower Land.

4.Aavegotchi

Aavegotchis are rare crypto-collectibles living on the Ethereum blockchain, backed by the ERC721 standard used in popular blockchain games such as Cryptokitties, Axie Infinity, and Cryptovoxels. Rumor has it that Aavegotchis are actually the ghosts of liquidated yield farmers determined to return and bring honor to their familia.

Aavegotchi introduces many innovations into the blockchain gaming sphere, including DeFi token collateral stakes, dynamic rarity, rarity farming, DAO-governed game mechanics, and an open metaverse with smart contract interoperability and in-world town hall style voting.

Just like the original Tamagotchi introduced the world to digital pets, Aavegotchi introduces the world to playable NFTs, backed by digital value.

5.Meshswap

Meshswap is a unique autonomous finance protocol that provides various revenue generation opportunities such as Swap, Lend, Leverage farm, and Stake on a Polygon network that is not possible in traditional finance. Meshswap has a structure that combines the AMM (Automated Market Maker) DEX business model prevalent in the DeFi ecosystem with the uniqueness of Multichain Economy and autonomous MESH inflation distribution by MESH stakers. This structure enables a virtuous cycle in which the MESH community’s active engagement is the growth of MESH value, the growth of the entire protocol, and higher yields for ecosystem participants.
