Deutsche Telekom announces support for Polygon blockchain infrastructure | VanillaPlus

Deutsche Telekoma German telecommunications company, is a validator on Polygonone Ethereum layer-2 scaling platform, expands the activities in blockchain technology and signal support for the network ecosystem.

Following Q, Flow, Celo, Chainlinkand Ethereum, Deutsche Telekom’s subsidiary, Deutsche Telekom MMS, extends its validation nodes to Polygon, providing staking and validation services for the proof-of-stake (PoS) network and Polygon’s Supernets solutions.

“The Polygon ecosystem is very developer friendly and resource efficient. It is based on the highest security standards of the Ethereum ecosystem, says Dirk Röder, Head of Blockchain Solutions Center at Deutsche Telekom. “The collaboration with Polygon is an important step for Deutsche Telekom MMS to fully exploit the potential of blockchain technology and enable applications suitable for mass distribution. Deutsche Telekom MMS also supports Polygon staking, contributing to the security and decentralization of the blockchain.”

“We are pleased to have Deutsche Telekom, one of the world’s leading telecommunications providers, become a validator on the Polygon network,” said Michael Blank, CEO of Polygon Labs. “This collaboration will pave the way for more businesses to embrace blockchain technology through Polygon and empower consumers by unlocking the ownership and autonomy that web3 technology offers.”

Validators play a key role in the operation and security of blockchains

Developed by Polygon Labs, Polygon’s development and growth team, the Polygon ecosystem offers a growing suite of protocols for developers to easily access large-scale solutions, including zero-knowledge digests, pagechains, app-specific chains, and data availability protocols. As a validator, Deutsche Telekom MMS will help secure Polygon’s PoS sidechain and Supernet’s app chains, contributing to their security, governance and decentralization by running a full node, producing blocks, validating and participating in consensus, and checkpointing Ethereum’s main network. .

Today, Polygon’s PoS chain already hosts tens of thousands of decentralized applications, more than three million daily transactions, and [$1.2 billion (€1.12 billion)] in total value locked. Polygon Supernets allow developers to create high-performance, customizable app chains with flexible deployment options so projects can focus on their business model and user strategies. Supernett allows projects to define their own throughput, gas currency, gas limit requirements and much more.

Both solutions work in conjunction with the Ethereum blockchain, which allows them to process transactions economically and securely. Changes are then replicated on the Ethereum mainnet.
