Incognito Has Deployed a Bridge to Polygon and Turned On Privacy Mode for Users

Incognito chain integrates with Polygon (full-stack Ethereum scaling solution) to bring a new privacy solution for MATIC hodlers.

Based on the statistics on DeFiLlama, Polygon is currently the 8th biggest chain in terms of Total Value Locked (TVL). With various technologies involved, Polygon is one of the best ways to make Ethereum cheaper and faster while remain high-security standards.

On the other side, Incognito is a privacy hub for all existing crypto assets and decentralized applications. Based on the premise that Polygon users don’t want alternative cryptocurrencies with extra privacy, what they really want is the privacy versions of existing Polygon tokens. That’s the point where Incognito jumps on the boat.

Thanks to the bridge built from the Incognito blockchain to Polygon, Polygon users now can transfer and trade MATIC and all Polygon tokens without having to reveal their identities. All information regarding sender, recipient, amount transferred, and type of assets in every transaction will be hidden from prying eyes. In addition, users even have the ability to interact anonymously with their favorite Polygon dApp in the Incognito network, starting with Uniswap and Curve. They believe that this is a huge step toward the mass adoption of the DeFi revolution.

One of the most mind-blowing features that Incognito offers to Polygon users is the highest level of composability which enables users to interact with any dApps from any blockchain using only Polygon assets. This bridge aggregation will be implemented by applying a new mechanism called Unified Privacy Token. This new feature is expected to be the game-changer that offers the most convenient and beneficial way of using cryptocurrency by utilizing and combining all the best advantages of different blockchains.

Roadmap

In February 2022, Incognito released the bridge from the Incognito blockchain to the Polygon network to offer a privacy layer to MATIC and all Polygon assets (transfer and swap assets anonymously)

2 weeks later, Incognito integrated with Uniswap v.3 and Curve to offer a privacy layer to 2 of the most popular dApps on Polygon.

Around May – June 2022, besides Uniswap and Curve, Incognito also plans to integrate with QuickSwap which is currently the Polygon decentralized application with the highest TVL.

Finally, Unified Privacy Tokens feature is estimated to be launched in May and make the whole blockchain network a unified net.
