# Proven scalability on Ethereum
Polygon PoS is one of the most used protocols in the world. The network has tens of thousands of dApps, more than 3 million average daily transactions, $5 billion in secured assets, and some of the top brands building on it.
Go to documentation in touch](## collaborators
* Allows projects to scale by processing more transactions
* Average \~$0.015 cost per transaction powered by Polygon’s proof-of-stake architecture
* Approximately \~10,000x lower costs per transaction than Ethereum
[Gas Calculator](#### Community support
* A highly active and engaged developer community
* 24/7 development support
* Extensive developer documentation to make building easier
Community Home#### EVM compatible
* Deploys easily from Ethereum for faster development
* Compatible with Ethereum developer tools
* Developers can scale faster and benefit from Ethereum network effects
[Bridge Matic](#### Adopted by the biggest projects
* Trusted by some of the biggest brands and studios in Web2 and Web3
* Allows developers to easily onboard users with a large pool of users on the network
* Carbon netural blockchain reduces project emissions
Ecosystem dApps## Decentralized and secure technology
Polygon’s scalable proof-of-stake (POS) architecture complements Ethereum’s decentralized security, ensuring you have the ability to create dApps that can appeal to the general public while maintaining the power of decentralization.
