The document provides an overview of Polygon, a scaling solution for Ethereum. Some key points: - Polygon has over 1000 DApps deployed and 500+ in development, making it the most adopted scaling solution after Ethereum. - It discusses the importance of composability in the DeFi ecosystem, allowing protocols to build on top of each other. - Polygon is focused on building technologies like zero-knowledge proofs and rollups to scale Ethereum and enable privacy in DeFi.

4. What is DeFi Composability
WHAT IS DEFI COMPOSABILITY?
An elegant property which lets one build protocols on top of each other, meshing together to give a different or even a better
product. The functionality of one protocol can be utilized in another protocol, even liquidity as well.

•
•
Promotes high utilization of capital
Makes capital sticky, as lots of useful avenues
Faster go-to market
More opportunities for developers
Composability encourages more users, liquidity, dapps
WHY COMPOSABILITY IS IMPORTANT?

DeFi lego pieces can be organized across 5 layers .
Layer N may reuse functionality or capital of layer (N-1).
Layers also denote the flow of capital which would be
from layer 0 to layer 3 .
Capital risk and reward also increases as we move up
the layers.
DeFi Ecosystem Breakdown

6. Layer 1 - Low risk defi protocols for a stable yield .
Generally money markets,stableswaps.
Layer 0 - User entry ,capital entry point.
Layer 2 - Medium risk defi protocols providing
higher yields .
Layer 3 - More complex defi protocols requiring
quality human capital to generate superior risk
adjusted returns.
Layer 4 - User facing analytics platforms like
Portfolio tracking,on chain analytics . Yield
positions trackers.
Exploring DeFi Ecosystem Layers

7. High performance Infra
Developing ZK Rollup technology and light clients to help
build next generation blockchain scalability
Ease of Entry into Blockchain
Integrations with large number of wallets and CEX's so that
users and assets can easily access on-chain DeFi vehicles

Decentralisation & Community
Set up the DeFi DAO to allow for greater community say in
ecosystem building and enable decentralised decisions
DeFi Tooling - Audits, Liquidity, ZK
Building technologies to help build a large DeFi ecosystem
with Audits, Liquidity flow and Privacy (Zero Knowledge)

8. Hermez Acquisition - ZK RollUps
Zero Knowledge Proof - Ethereum Scaling Solution
•
•
ZK-Rollups use ZK proofs to confirm veracity of o -chain transactions
Since the transactions are mathematically checked - they are valid beyond doubt
Why we acquired Hermez Network for $250M
•
•
•
•
ZK Rollups are the holygrail of Ethereum scalability - combine high throughput & security
Hermez is focussed on developing zK-EVM technology - native smart contract inside a ZK-Rollup
All Etheruem/EVM code will be reusable and Dapps can be deployed with extreme scalability
Hermez is also the only fully decentralised ZK Rollup implementation
Enabling the ZK Future
• Polygon has further committed $1 Billion from its treasury to building/acquiring ZK-based solutions
