Axelar and Polygon Supernets Team Up to Provide Cross-Chain Interoperability
Blockchain Interoperability Network Axelar said Wednesday it will deliver cross-chain communications for Polygonrs Supernets.
Polygonrs Supernets are customizable networks without any operational costs. This gives developers the ability to build their projects quickly on the supernets without any barriers to entry. Supernets ultimately aim to scale blockchains that are used for decentralized applications (dapps) such as gaming, decentralized finance (DeFi), and other entertainment projects.

Axelar, which was created by the founding members behind the Algorand blockchain, is a network that gives users tools to connect their digital assets and dapps across multiple blockchains to unlock cross-chain communication. The companyrs partnership with Polygonrs supernets will thus offer interoperability with other blockchains.
Polygonrs supernets are fairly new, with Polygon saying it would invest $100 million in them back in April. Avalanche also committed $290 million in March to develop its own version called lsubnets.r

The Axelar/Polygon partnership lenables complex operations n for example, cross-chain borrow-lend, using NFTs as collateral,r said Parth Pathak, general manager of supernets at Polygon, in a statement to CoinDesk, referring to non-fungible tokens.
The goal for interoperability projects like Axelar is to lallow developers to build anywhere they want and still be connected to everyone else,r Axelar co-founder Sergey Gorbunov told CoinDesk. lSo that's really the opportunity that werre creating for the supernets and just the broader ecosystem.r
