Questions:

• What is the average time between blocks on Polygon?
• What was the maximum and minimum recorded time between two blocks?
• How many transactions are done in a block on average?
• How do these numbers compare to L1 such as Flow or Solana, or other L2 such as Arbitrum or Optimism?

What is Polygon used for?

MATIC is the native cryptocurrency of the Polygon network and is used to help drive development across the network and can be used for staking and paying for transaction fees. Users can earn MATIC tokens by providing computational resources and services to the Polygon network.

Is Polygon better than Ethereum?

Architecture, Consensus, scalability, and transaction speeds are the main criteria based on which the blockchain platforms will be differentiated. While the Ethereum platform is more about the features and security, Solana and Polygon are more about affordable rates, faster speeds, and scalability.
