When your blockchain leads the race? When the big giants pick you for oneof their use case. For example, Microsoft has been Ethereum promoter for some time through their Azure cloud and now the Polygon blockchain gets the Google Cloud.
It seems like these days big giants are picking their favorites to build the infrastructure on. And this would be a chance for reaching more users and in fact get more use cases built around your blockchain.
So today let's talk about the news of Google Cloud partnering with Polygon Labs. How it is going to impact the blockchain and the cloud users in general.

Before we can discuss the google cloud being the validator. We have to look at the process of validator. And how come they tend to be helpful for the blockchain. So let's take a look at how Polygon benefits from this participation.
Validators on the blockchain validate the transaction. Which means they follow the proof of stake consensus. And they also allow the users to stake the token on the chain. They also operate like a node and secure the chain too.
So Google Cloud joining this infrastructure makes it easier for future node operators to buy the infrastructure through Google Cloud. And it would be easier to deploy the node. Which kind of is one of the way works well for the both sides.
There is always a catch. No matter who and why. Google being the evil of them all. They want the future validators to use their infrastructure. Who knows they may even tempt the existing one to open another node on their cloud. And that could be one of the ways they are playing.
Google Cloud, Azure, Aws and many other cloud players are finding the value in the blockchain world. Because infrastructure required to run the tech is their bread and butter. So they jumping into this is a business opportunity for them.
As you can see from this tweet the official connection between the Google Cloud and the Polygon Labs.
Do you know HIve has it's own node deployer too. Privex is the company whose staff members also happen to be on the Hive. I dont know them personally but they are around. And they are going to help anyone who wants to be a node operator set things up so that you don't have to spend money more than required.
Like Google Cloud we need some of such providers which can help with the validator and the staked node. A lot of such 3rd party players can make a good impact on the chain. If we get such promoters and validators on Hive, we would end up getting more mainstream.
Polygon is going vertical, horizontal and as much as possible in all the possible direction. That growth has a cost and they are doing everything they can to have a use case, adoption and the consumers around their chain, which shows the growth in upcoming future.
