Case Study: Polygon achieves explosive app growth with Alchemy

Alchemy powers Polygon's exponential growth

Polygon needed a better developer experience as its network scaled rapidly, with more apps, transactions, and teams relying on its Ethereum scaling solution. The challenge was that developers often had to spend significant time building and maintaining blockchain backend infrastructure instead of focusing on their applications. Alchemy provided the Web3 API infrastructure and platform tools used by Polygon developers.

With Alchemy’s support, Polygon was able to improve reliability, scale more effectively, and help developers build faster on its network. Alchemy worked closely with Polygon to mitigate network-level incidents and support the ecosystem, contributing to growth from 200 apps in June 2021 to over 19,000 by April 2022, along with 1.5B total transactions and 8,000 monthly active teams. The partnership helped Polygon grow 95x since June 2021.
