Polygon CDK is brilliant, and your video analysis is brilliant as well!🎯💯💪🏿✊🏿🔥⚡️

[@taeukham623]

Hi Jarrod! Good to see you again in youtube. We have met in Ethcon at this summer held in Seoul. Thanks for this great video, gave me an overall view of how polygon works:)

[@rof8200]

Thanks for this video. It's an excellent explainer.

[@UnBeraBull]

Appreciate this content, great explainer pitched at a good level of detail.

[@pradex4673]

Thank you so much 🙏🥂

[@allanjunli]

Thanks for sharing, it helped.

[@tomiwa1a]

Very informative video and extremely well edited. Nice work Jarrod!

[@JarrodWatts]

Thanks Tomiwa! Appreciate it!

[@arkantos14821]

Amazing Video, Great job

[@xi2784]

cannot believe.i JUSt found your channel - one of the best breakdowns ever

[@futureforward3153]

i have been so confused on the larger picture of how all the pieces are fitting together. . .now it makes sense.. they are building a bunch of chains that allows apps, companies, users to leverage blockchain stacks. interesting

[@futureforward3153]

Matic/Optimism/ZKsync/Avax . . . is like battle of the operating ecosystems ... but they all run on intel processors lol (eth)

[@corsomagenta]

You explain this much better than the founder of MATIC (Sandeep Nailwal) in his recent interview with Coin Bureau!

[@JarrodWatts]

Haha what a compliment! thank you!

[@williambreeze2659]

Thanks for the breakdown!

[@michaelthoma4423]

great work. always enjoy your X threads and now videos!

[@JarrodWatts]

Thank you very much!

[@legacy554]

Great job, Jarrod!

[@milciadesalejandrosalinasm2099]

Thanks for the info. Subscribed to your channel

[@cryptotare]

I rarely give video a "LIKE" but this one deserves "LIKE" badly🥰

[@JarrodWatts]

Thank you! Glad you found it helpful

[@SZakiabba]

Did Polygon zkEVM encounter any issues or security vulnerabilities? I would like to write a research paper on it

[@nragan1000]

I see a lot of vid talking about converting to new POL through smart contract . How ? Where ? Can you demo ? Thx

[@KnightsOffical]

Amazing explanation, as well as drawings with them :) Would love to hear price prediction for token after all updates, how optimistic are you for POL price ?

[@JarrodWatts]

Thank you! I can’t really comment on the price however 😆

[@adamh85]

So if i understand correctly you will be able to access polygon L1 sidechain while using polygon's ethereum l2 zk roll up?

[@tobiassjoholm9325]

How does this impact matic? Will POL have a separate price and market cap? You recommend selling matic and buying pol?

[@mithelen]

Matic will be converted to pol. 1:1

[@tobiassjoholm9325]

Awesome

[@Zale370]

Finally someone who speaks english!

[@dereksantossidi6850]

ZK is so expensive, my proofs cost me 500k gas
