<p>Blockchain technology has improved the financial sector by powering decentralized digital platforms such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Quant, and Polygon. The technology has exponentially grown in user numbers in recent years with the launch of new and improved digital platforms that offer an antithesis to old-generation blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Old-generation networks are associated with limited scalability, outdated consensus mechanisms, high transaction costs, and the need for interoperable features. Newer projects like Quant are performing differently than others like Solana and <a href="https://coinpedia.org/press-release/bitcoin-spark-surpasses-2m-raised-in-only-a-few-months/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin Spark</a> are gaining momentum.&nbsp;</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-is-quant">What is Quant?</h2> 
<p>Quant is a blockchain-powered utility platform founded in 2018 by a computer expert and cyber security professional called Gilbert Verdian. Quant was developed to make Web3 operations faster and cheaper by applying improved technology to reduce network slowdown when systems get busy. The network was also developed to provide efficiency in cross-network transfers. The Ethereum mainnet powers the network, and its native token is QNT. Quant’s limited social presence and lack of transparent metrics systems make obtaining data from the network hard, making investors prefer Polygon and Bitcoin Spark.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="what-is-polygon">What is Polygon?</h2> 
<p>Polygon is an Ethereum sidechain or a layer-two scaling solution for the Ethereum mainnet. The sidechain provides a cheaper and faster platform compared to Ethereum. Polygon was formerly identified as the Matic network and has helped new users interact with decentralized applications without scalability concerns or congestion issues that were experienced on Ethereum before Ethereum’s major hard fork upgrade called “The Merge” that saw the network transform from a proof-of-work consensus mechanism to a proof-of-stake network validation mechanism.&nbsp;</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="why-is-bitcoin-spark-trending">Why is Bitcoin Spark trending?</h2> 
<p>Bitcoin Spark is pioneering the next generation of Bitcoin alternatives. The platform applies advanced blockchain-powered systems, including a new consensus mechanism that no other platform uses, making it a first market mover. The platform has become the most likely contender of the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/press-release/how-bitcoin-spark-outperforms-dogecoin-in-the-crypto-market/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">top Bitcoin alternatives</a> today. Unlike other Bitcoin alternatives, Bitcoin Spark is on the verge of introducing a smart contract layer to its network that will allow community developers to advance their technological explorations in deploying decentralized applications (dApps).&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Unlike Polygon, an Ethereum sidechain, Bitcoin Spark has its native network, which will launch soon after the ongoing ICO event ends. The ICO is currently in the sixth phase, where each BTCS token, Bitcoin Spark’s native digital asset, is selling for $2.75 and has a bonus giveaway of 8% of the amount spent deposited on the user’s account after the purchase. Bitcoin Spark has already been audited, and the founders have been <a href="https://www.cognitos.io/bitcoinspark-kyc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow">KYC verified</a> by two independent auditing platforms.</p>

<p>BTCS tokens exist as ERC-20 tokens powered by the Ethereum mainnet to offer potential users a chance to trade, buy, sell, and use them as they await the network’s first block. The ERC-20 tokens will act as a wrapped version of Bitcoin Spark’s main coin, which will be minted on the network post-launch. The existing BTCS tokens act as an IOU or bridgeable digital asset, making depositing and withdrawing on centralised exchanges faster upon mainnet release.</p> 
<p>The Bitcoin Spark network will integrate a proprietary bridging system for the IOU tokens, allowing users to bridge their <a href="https://coinpedia.org/press-release/wall-street-veteran-explains-why-he-bets-on-tesla-ethereum-and-bitcoin-spark/">BTCS tokens</a> to and from other networks like BNB Smart Chain, Ethereum, and Polygon. Any assets that will accumulate in the renounced contracts powered by the bridging systems will be removed from the deployed network, and the network will recognize their supply to the tokens that have been deployed. If you missed Bitcoin, buy BTCS tokens and participate in the platform’s early development.</p>
