The post Polygon Boss Questions Loyalty to Ethereum in Rant appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal has criticized Ethereum’s leaders for dismissing Polygon’s status as a true Ethereum layer 2 — noting contributions that Polygon has made to Ethereum while receiving little recognition for those efforts. Nailwal, who also serves as the Polygon Foundation’s CEO, said he is now “questioning his loyalty” to Ethereum — particularly the Ethereum Foundation and the community, which, according to him, hasn’t given Polygon any direct support. “In fact, the reverse,” Nailwal said in a post to X on Monday, adding that he has given his loyalty to Ethereum even though it has potentially cost him billions of dollars in Polygon’s valuation not to brand itself as a layer 1. Source: Sandeep Nailwal “The Ethereum community as a whole has been a shit show for quite some time,” Nailwal said, adding that the “Ethereum community needs to take a hard look at itself.”  His post later prompted a response from Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, who made a point to acknowledge Polygon’s achievements in the broader Ethereum community. Nailwal isn’t the only industry leader who has handed out heavy criticism to the EF, which has undergone a major leadership overhaul over the last 12 months. Nailwal cited a post from a former EF researcher Péter Szilágyi who shared an 18-month-old letter expressing his frustration with his old workplace, while Eric Conner, one of Ethereum’s earliest developers, left in January, citing concerns with Buterin’s leadership decisions. He received some support, including from Solana co-founder Raj Gokal and former Solana Foundation head of strategy Austin Federa, who both suggested that Polygon “team up” with Solana or become a layer 2 on the Ethereum-rival network.
