SkyLockr will soon be built on the Polygon blockchain, an energy efficient proof-of-stake network. SkyLockr chose Polygon because of its energy efficient design as well as its unique ability to self-amend, allowing it to undergo regular upgrades that keep it at the cutting edge of innovation.

Artists, too, have chosen Polygon and SkyLockr because they care deeply about their environmental footprint. Because of its proof-of-stake design, minting an NFT on Polygon uses less energy than other proof-of-work blockchains. For example, 3 SkyLockr NFTs creates a carbon footprint equivalent to the weight of a snowflake vs. the equivalent of 1000 lbs in carbon emissions on competing proof-of-work platforms.

Polygon also offers some of the lowest transaction (gas) fees for NFTs. SkyLockr further reduced these low costs to $0 to create an equitable community, without economic barriers, where artists and collectors of all backgrounds have a safe and creative place to mint, share, buy and sell works.
