Polygon — Step Hero’s blockchain of choice

4 min readJul 26, 2021

At the beginning of the Step Hero project, our development team faced the most crucial decision for a blockchain project — on which network will we build? After much consideration, we have decided to choose Polygon network (along with BSC) as a strategic technology partner for Step Hero.

And that was, without a doubt, one of our wisest decisions so far.

We are pleased to announce the strategic technology partnership between Step Hero & Polygon.

What’s more? Step Hero is the first NFT Fantasy-themed RPG on Polygon network, and we’re proud of it.

Partnership highlights

Step Hero is programmed based on Polygon’s protocol and architecture, utilizing Polygon technology to power our product features.
Step Hero is participating in Polygon’s ecosystem, leveraging its infrastructure, utilities, and user base.
Polygon will support Step Hero in promoting our brand to users inside and outside the network.
Building on Polygon, Step Hero contributes to the ecosystem’s growth by adding utilities to it, expanding its user base, and bringing in revenue.

Why do we build on Polygon network?

Technologically, Polygon network’s architecture and cutting-edge features align with our ideal product vision. Programming game products, especially blockchain NFT games, requires a sound technology foundation to ensure that the game’s graphics and logic are transmitted with the best speed and performance. Polygon’s security, openness, and power is especially suitable for NFT gaming products. It allows us to deliver a novelistic gaming experience to our players.

Besides the technical aspect, we also choose Polygon thanks to its fully developed ecosystem and strong growth potential in the future. The Polygon ecosystem currently consists of over 350 Dapps with almost 1 million user wallets, and the numbers are still growing. A significant advantage of the ecosystem is the super cheap gas fees compared to other major networks like Ethereum or Binance Smart Chain. Future users of Step Hero will enjoy the Polygon ecosystem’s complete facilities, fast transaction speeds, and low transaction fees.

As the first NFT Fantasy-themed PRG Project on Polygon, Step Hero is proud to be one of the pioneers to make the Polygon network a great success soon.

Polygon solves pain points associated with Blockchains, like high gas fees and slow speeds, without sacrificing security. This multi-chain system is akin to other ones such as Polkadot, Cosmos, Avalanche, etc., but with at least three significant upsides:
