# Overview

Polygon is one of the most used protocols globally. It has tens of thousands of dApps, more than 3 million daily transactions, $5 billion in secured assets, and several well-known brands built on it. Costs are also very low, with an average of $0.015 cost per transaction on Polygon’s pos (proof-of-stake) blockchain.&#x20;

Polygon wallets help users store, send, delegate, and transact with Matic, Polygon’s native cryptocurrency. You can also sell and view NFT transactions using your digital wallet, as well as engage with a huge variety of dApps, including games, NFT marketplaces, DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations), tools, utilities, and so much more.

### Key Takeaways for Creators and Collectors

\
When it comes to a Polygon wallet, there isn’t a native blockchain wallet, but there are plenty of other great options with their own unique points and functionality. Your wallet should let you:

* **Manage and stake Matic** and other relevant native tokens
* **Store your NFTs for viewing**
* **24/7 access to your funds for transactions** and cashing out whenever you want
* **Access a growing number of web3 dApps** via your wallet
* **Compatibility with a hardware wallet**, such as a Ledger, which is the most secure way to keep digital assets safe

*"What’s the best wallet for me?"*&#x20;

Check out our carefully-selected Polygon wallets to find the one that works best for your needs.
