The migration seem to be just the change in name. I don't find any difference prior to being MATIC or now POL. They do provide some technical jargon but the real experience is not much different. The fees are are similar or more than other L2s and there's not much new things happening on the network. It's also a matter of hype but also of the technology involved that increases the speed and decreases the price. The hype war is being led by TON while technologically newer L2 like zksync, manta, Injective EVM seem to impress me.

Apparently, Polygon 2.0 (which changed from MATIC to POL) turned into a new kind of ZK-based chain (as in Zero Knowledge Proofs). Totally revolutionary, imo. If I'm right, that means Polygon will get higher scalability benefits with added privacy. Sort of what zksync does. I agree that all of the hype is on TON these days. But it won't last for long. Especially when Telegram's founder and CEO agreed to provide IP addresses and other personal information to the authorities upon request. The end of an era for privacy on Telegram, I'm afraid. If that's going to be the case with the instant messaging platform, what can you tell me about it's own Blockchain network (TON)? It'll probably do the same in the long run.

Polygon has better privacy and direct compatibility with the EVM. That's its main selling point. Someday people will notice its true benefits and drive market prices all the way to the moon. One can only imagine how high POL will go. Just buy, "hodl", and forget about the rest. Wink

Sounds good, just like what I would do with any other coin with the potential Grin

Though I am curious to read into it, I do think they have papers of sorts to read and dig your mind into.
TON is there to stay, in my opinion, though, after the mini-apps, the hype will die down around it.
