This article discusses details on how to interact with smart contracts on Ethereum using Truffle and Infura. We will use a simple smart contract such as a storage contract to deploy and then interact or test the smart contract. To set up Infura, you can refer to my previous article here Setting up Infura account.It […]

What Is Polygon? Previously Matic Network, Polygon functions as a framework designed to connect blockchain networks (i.e. interoperability). Polygon seeks to build upon Ethereum’s limitations (poor user experience, throughput, lack of governance). Their solution is a sidechain. Developers can tailor their needs and launch preset blockchain networks. This means that the creation of sovereign blockchains
