Which blockchain has better block speed, lower cost, higher security and better road for scaling up (network running smoothly with more and more dapps being created on it)?

I think you can not compare those 2 projects directly because they are two different things. Solana is a completely new and different blockchain then ethereum and has nothing to do with ETH at all. Polygon is a layer 2 solution which is built upon Ethereum in order to increase the transaction speed and to reduce the hefty fees of ETH. Both blockchain have transaction fees that are only fractions of a dollar at the moment so i think they are on par in that regard. Polygon can access the Ethereum virtual machine which means that Ethereum smart contracts are running on the polygon network also so here you have the full functionality of the ETH chain with lower fees.

I think both network are okay. But solana is on different caliber and has advanced way too big compared to polygon. I am not saying matic isnt good but in terms of usage, I think there are too many solanians that outweight matic. But recently, solana had a very bad downfall since theit network stopped. So there still some negative point of view on their part. But for me both network are all good for investment.

There are very few projects in Solana yet, low liquidity and fraudulent hackers have not yet explored the system.
If you want to experiment, it is better to use Ethereum Level 2 solutions or Binance Smartchain.
But you need to understand that money can be lost in case of errors in smart contracts or due to their hacking. Therefore, you need to be very careful not to contribute large sums to new projects. Smart contracts are written by people and they are not always perfect.

I've tried both for transaction fees of course Solana is better because it's cheaper than Polygon, but for speed nothing beats Polygon, both are good coins and have long-term prospects so we deserve to choose, for the portion of course I prefer 70% for Solana and 30% for polygon.

Right now, some of the biggest blockchain games are on Polygon, next to Ethereum of course (and Ronin for Axie Infinity). Solana is also destined to become a blockchain game platform as well. There's a game which has received several million in funding, Star Atlas, already selling NFTs for gameplay on the Solana blockchain -- even though the game hasn't been launched yet.

Polygon has a ticking time bomb on its exsustance, Solana is centralised and can sinoly shut down as we have seen. Rather check out Harmony ONE, it is like buying Cardano for mere cents, except Harmony ONE is like a finished Cardano and more tech and product wise.

A ticking time bomb on its existence?, can you elaborate, please.

I haven't even seen dapps like DeFi that's in polygon.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, but if really comparing Sol (layer 1) versus Polygon (Layer 2) is just lame, it's more different for the complex technical factors associated with conformance union of each series. Before Sol was noticed by the big hedge funds, Polygon was a big growth model for dapps that were suitable for both defi and nfts.

Dapp on polygon is very rich and diverse.

Just keep in mind that if you're asking this with investment in mind, their supply must be counted too. Some of them still has a lot of unlocked supply which might dilute the market and cause some sell pressure. If you decide to buy then make sure to do it after the unlock is finished and make some preparations for the next unlock period. It applies to other tokens too though, not exclusive to Polygon or Solana.

What do you say? you tell them to wait for all of them to open, you are crazy huh, you have to know how long it is open while we need a network now, we can't wait if it goes on for decades, you should make a new period for comparison.

Both have advantages and disadvantages and if you want to compare both projects, you can visit each website and read the difference.
If you want to select which project can be used for your investment, I suggest you buy Polygon as the price is still low but you can also buy Sol but the price already reaches the highest price.
I do not know many details about the project but I think Polygon or Solana can be your investment by holding for some time.
With $100, you can buy many Polygon or buying less than 1 Solana with that money so that you can decide by yourself.

Solana is superior to the whole thing you mentioned. I haven't even seen dapps like DeFi that's in polygon. However, solona first attracted attention with many communities, as well as successful events there, many tokens from the solana blockchain were successful to become investment coins.

Both of them it's good but i prefer Solana, It's offering higher TPS (50-60k) comparing to Polygon (6-7k), For the transaction time there is not really mcuh different but beside that comparing to Polygon, Solana it's little bit hard to understand for the first time while on the other side Polygon it's just better version of Ethereum so you can easily understand the concept if you are using ethereum before especially their Smart-Contract and can easily bridging throug Ethereum network too but if your priority is the features then Solana it's much better.

Solana has been getting the most buzz lately. A few months ago was the trending blockchain network. Solana has large institutional backing and this a major reason why they have been growing much faster than their competitors. I do agree that Solana is too centralized but this also enables them to have lower fees and faster speeds. DeFi users seem to prefer usability over decentralization so I expect Solana to continue to have an edge over Polygon.

I perfer solana over polygon. Defi on polygon was starting to face another trouble since people are moving their assets to the another new blockchain like solana. There are lots of new defi introduced on solana protocol on daily basis. Solana has a very cheap fees compared with polygon. The community was very active and it has its own ecosystem just like BSC although it used its own protocol with different hash unlike polygon that being compliant with ethereum and people interested to adop solana blockchain. A few days ago we have seen solana blockchain was stopping for a while due to the nodes faced a problem caused by the massive transactions in the network that needs to be confirmed at the same time. This means if people are also moving to the solana to avoid the expensive blockchain called ethereum. This is another solution to ethereum blockchain.
The adoption of solana will be massive in the future. It has various wallet like phantom which was better than metamask.

In my perspective, there is the diferrent between polygon and solana.

Solana is an L1 chain whereas Polygon is an L2 chain built on ETH L1. They have different consensus mechanisms.

Both are very fast and cheap to transact. Both are EVM compatible.

NEAR protocol has horizontal sharding and infinite TPS with 2 second finality. It's account based and easy to use (no metamask required). It even has an L2 for appchains like polkadot and it can run Ethereum DApps in it's EVM contract Aurora, which accepts ETH to pay for gas natively and has the only 100% trustless bridge in crypto. You can already trade and yield farm on NEAR protocol on Ref Finance and more DeFi is being added every day.

If you are asking which to invest I think I would go for the cheaper Polygon as they do have more tokens available in their network than in Solana. Polygon's chart also looks more perfect for investing than the chart of SOL.

I'm not very knowledgeable however of both tech details so if they say TPS of SOL is more than what Matic can do, then good for SOL but as far as I know, Polygon had been around longer than Solana.

It seems that just more people are coming into the crypto space, and they are looking for alternatives for ETH with its ridiculous gas fees. It's not that good when it comes to practicality. It has always been the problem with scalability with cryptocurrencies, and I think with the two coins you mentioned, here are some improvements toward what has worked.

So I'm in favor of SOL because of its advancement with block time. It's proof of history. It's made for scaling.

Personally I am used to working on Polygon rather than on Solana and I can say that it is a really good network with fees less than one cent and transactions even with minimum fees don’t take more than one minute, so I am totally satisfied with it. But actually, we shouldn’t compare these two platforms, as Polygon is a layer 2 solution for Ethereum and Solana is an independent blockchain.
