OPERA integrates with Polygon $MATIC, opening 80M users to DApp ecosystem

Opera will introduce Polygon’s ecosystem to 80 million users on Android mobile, followed by the opening of Polygon’s ecosystem to other devices and platforms

Internet browser Opera, which supports Web 3.0 application support and comes with its own crypto wallet built-in, announced the upcoming integration with Polygon ($MATIC). According to plans, the integration is scheduled to become live in the first quarter of 2022. It will introduce Polygon’s ecosystem to Opera’s 80 million users on Android mobile, followed by the opening of Polygon’s ecosystem to other devices and platforms. With Polygon, Ethereum (ETH) users will be able to scale their Ethereum (ETH) network for lower gas fees and faster transaction times.

A press release stated that not all Opera users will be able to use this feature starting in the first quarter. In particular, Android users will be the first to get access to this. Opera estimated two years ago that there were around 80 million monthly active users in this pool.

In the coming months, Opera users can benefit from dApps such as Sushiswap, Curve, Aave, Balancer, and Kyber, as well as Blockchain-based NFT games and platforms such as Decentraland, Opensea, Sandbox, Somnium Space, and Decentral Games.

“With this integration, Opera’s hundreds of millions of monthly active users are now able to experience Polygon’s thriving DAPP ecosystem, as well as best-in-class Web 3.0 technology,”

Arjun Kalsy, Polygon’s vice president of growth.

As the network can only handle about 15 transactions per second, scaling solutions for Ethereum, such as Polygon, have become necessary in recent years. There are times that gas prices can become absurdly high when there is high network activity, such as when celebrities drop over 10,000 NFTs at the same time. It is even more expensive to borrow and lend in decentralized finance protocols, like peer-to-peer lending and borrowing, where loan origination is based on multiple smart contract confirmations.
