Polygon Stops Work on 'Edge,' Used to Build Dogechain, as Focus Turns to ZKPolygon Labs, the primary developer behind the Polygon blockchain ecosystem, said it has discontinued contributions to Polygon Edge, the open-source software for building Ethereum-compatible networks that was used as the template for Dogechain – created purportedly to bring DeFi to the Dogecoin community.
Top executives at Polygon Labs have been signaling that shift toward ZK since early this year. A new Ethereum-compatible, zero-knowledge-powered network called Polygon zkEVM launched in March, and subsequently the team has been recruiting blockchain builders to use "Polygon CDK," a blueprint for new layer-2 networks that can be modeled after the original technology.
