However, Polygon network often experiences a reduced network speed when the activity over the network increases. Firstly, as mentioned above the hard fork intends to reduce gas fee surges which happens when the network experiences increased activity on the chain.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Next is the address chain reorganization which takes place when a validator node receives information which creates a new version of blockchain. Even though this new version is temporary, it creates difficulty in verifying the success of a transaction<\/p>\n<p>To solve the reorgs issue Polygon aims to bring down the time it takes to finalize a block in order to verify successful transactions. For this the network uses sprint length which reduces block to 64 to 16 where a block producer can create block in just 32 seconds when compared to earlier 128 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, all the nod operators on the Polygon network will have to upgrade their nodes before January 17. However, Polygon\u2019s MATIC holders are not required to make any move.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h4>Was this writing helpful?<\/h4>\n<h5> <span data-toggle=\"modal\" data-target=\"#myModal\">No<\/span> <span onclick=\"likeFunction()\">Yes<\/span><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinpedia.org\/author\/elena\/\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-del=\"avatar\" alt=\"Photo of Elena R\" src=\"https:\/\/image.coinpedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/13135806\/4-300x300.jpg\" height=\"180\" width=\"180\"> <\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/coinpedia.org\/author\/elena\/\">Elena R<\/a><\/h3>\n<p> Elena is an expert in technical analysis and risk management in cryptocurrency market.
