MATIC partners with KlimaDAO for carbon neutrality
In a recent blog, Polygon announced its partnership with KlimaDAO. MATIC has recently published an eco-friendly Green Manifesto. It purchased $400,000 in carbon credits, which is equivalent to 104,000 tons of greenhouse gases. Thus, Polygon becomes more suitable for institutional investment. Also, on the technical side, MATIC is in oversold territory. A reasonable estimate for 2025 is around $6-8 based on a technical outlook.
Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder of Polygon, is taking the initiative to make the project network positive for the environment. Nailwal does not ignore the current environmental crisis. In addition, it announced that MATIC has committed $20 million to use Web3 and create a sustainable future.

What is a polygon? How does it differ from SHIB or other whale tokens?
Polygon is an Ethereum-banned Tier 2 scaling solution. The project focuses on scalability and reducing the complexity of on-the-fly transactions. It is also built on Proof-of-Stake checkpoints. Besides, it uses a special version of the Plasma framework. This technology enables each side chain in Polygon to process up to 65,536 transactions per block.
While Polygon currently only supports the Ethereum Blockchain, the network aims to expand to other networks soon. Thus, Polygon will become a more interoperable and decentralized tier 2 platform.
