Wakweli announces a strategic partnership with polygon

Wakweli, the web3 infrastructure protocol that issues certificates of authenticity for non-fungible tokens, has announced a strategic partnership with the Polygon blockchain platform.

In a press release shared with Coinjournal, Wakweli said the partnership enables all digital assets on Polygon to become compatible with the certification system that has been developed by its team. 

Every NFT project holder on the chain will also be able to request authenticity certificates for each of their assets, the team added. 

In addition to this, advanced use-case scenarios will also be available for developers via the Wakweli platform and API. Wakweli said it would provide the necessary support for developers and project holders. 

While commenting on this latest cryptocurrency news, Antoine Sarraute, Co-Founder of Wakweli, said;

“Since 2021, when ETH fees skyrocketed, Polygon established itself as the go-to chain to mint assets and has performed extremely well ever since – it is now the home of incredible NFT projects. We built Wakweli to create a safer web3 space across all chains, and today we are thrilled to collaborate with Polygon. This will enable Wakweli’s certification power to all Polygon users and unlock a definitive way to fight scam attempts, creating more trust in this thriving ecosystem.”
