SK Telecom’s NFT marketplace TopPort will also begin supporting the Polygon blockchain as the two companies look to “discover promising Web3 startups and support incubation.”
Polygon operates a proof-of-stake sidechain network that parallels Ethereum and hosts notable crypto apps such as Uniswap and Aave. The blockchain is considered one of the most popular among web3 gaming startups.
