Polygon vs. Ethereum: Which One is Leading the NFT Charts?<\/span><\/h2>\n

The popular network Polygon recorded a whopping 1.5 million NFT sales<\/a> on OpenSea in January, recent Dune Dashboard reports<\/a> show. By comparison, Ethereum sold about 1,1 million NFTs on the same marketplace. Surprisingly, it\u2019s the second month Polygon has outperformed Ethereum.<\/p>\n

Back in December 2022, Ethereum reported 1 million NFT sales on OpenSea while Polygon sales exceeded 1,3 million. While both networks are on the rise, Polygon is undoubtedly off to a better start in 2023.<\/p>\n

For example, the network started promising partnerships with giant companies such as Reddit, Meta, Adobe, and more. Many users turned to this alternative in 2022 as Ethereum gas prices soared \u2013 one of the biggest problems in the NFT market.<\/p>\n

Is Ethereum Truly Going Down?<\/span><\/h2>\n

At the moment of writing, Polygon has 224,719 active NFT traders, while Ethereum boasts 319,641 users. What\u2019s more, Ethereum\u2019s traders were valued at $446 million while the Polygon sales barely exceeded $15.4 million in January.<\/p>\n

In other words, Ethereum network isn\u2019t going anywhere soon, remaining in a leading position overall. Even so, Polygon has come a long way since 2017 when it was founded (under the name \u2018Matic\u2019). The Layer 2 scaling solution is carbon neutral, compatible with Ethereum, and cheap in terms of gas fees \u2013 three key aspects that continue to grow its popularity among NFT traders.<\/p>\n
