Polygon is a popular cryptocurrency because it lets people make faster and cheaper transactions on the Ethereum network. Ethereum can experience high gas fees and Polygon solves this with layer-2 scaling. However, its greatest attribute is its interoperability. Interoperability is an important feature in the crypto world and Polygon makes it easier on the Ethereum network. While other networks like Polkadot, Cosmos and Avalanche achieve the same goal, they aren't interoperable with the Ethereum blockchain. Polygon is aiming to be Ethereum's internet of blockchains, connecting EVM compatible networks together in a scalable multi-chain Ethereum ecosystem.
