Polygon

What crypto means by it

A network that runs alongside Ethereum to make transfers fast and cheap. Widely used for stablecoin payments because moving money on it costs a fraction of a cent.

What you already know this as

A low-value payment rail, used precisely because putting small payments through the main settlement system would cost more than the payments are worth.

In Kite: One of the networks you can top up from, with either USDC or USDT.
