Both Ethereum 2.0 and Polkadot promise a security-based protocol aimed at solving long-known scaling problems for blockchain.
Factors to consider include architecture, compromise model, mechanics, storage, and management.
Architecture
Ethereum 2.0 has a main chain and a locker called the Beacon Chain, each of which is connected only to the Ethereum Wasm interface. To interact with other chains which are not of the platform’s end-to-end protocol, it uses the sidechain.
Polkadot itself is a Relay Chain that is responsible for coordinating the connected blockchain of the platform. To generalize its functionality, Relay Chain does not support smart contracts. This opportunity is up to the pilgrims. Each patch has its own consensus algorithm, token, etc. block autonomous.
Unlike Ethereum 2.0, blockchains are not limited to a single interface like Ethereum where they build their own steps for performing particular actions.
Consensus Algorithm
Ethereum 2.0 and Polkadot both use a hybrid consensus model. It has its own block production protocol and final result but has a difference in completion time and the number of approvals per position.
Epochs as created by Ethereum 2.0 at a particular point in time. Ethereum's definitive protocol, Casper FFG, calculates a set of blocks in 6 minutes (maximum 12 minutes). In contrast, Polkadot's finalization protocol, GRANDPA, finalizes several blocks depending on availability, with a finalization time of 12-60 seconds.
If Ethereum 2.0 offers a strong guarantee of reliability, each shard needs multiple validators. Polkadot overcomes this problem by allowing verifiers to distribute the breach code to all verifiers in the system. Finally, not only shard validators, anyone can reconstruct the blockchain and test its validity. This helps Polkadot provide a strong reliability guarantee with fewer validators in each scenario.
Mechanics
Ethereum 2.0 is a proof of stake that combines 32 blocks per round. These packages are also called periods. Checkers receive rewards once per period (approximately every 6.5 minutes). The Beacon Chain randomly divides the group into committees and assigns them to specific shard blocks during validation.
Polkadot uses proposal of stake (NPoS) to select validators. The main objective is to ensure fair representation. Polkadot does this through proportional representation, which ensures that applicants are assigned to approvers according to their candidacy..
Sharing
If you compare Ethereum vs. Polkadot, it emerges as a common understanding of both platforms, providing increased scalability and high throughput. Vitalik Buterin says that a share on his Twitter page will lead to average traffic of 100,000 TPS. Polkadot transactions are approximately 166,666 TPS per second.
Polkadot, each shard has an abstract state transition function. Cabinets on Polkadot can expose a common interface, and none of the defenses should rely on a single interface. Instead, each shard or shard can be individually connected to a relay chain, giving developers the flexibility to create their own rules for how each shard will change the state.
Polkadot currently offers the ability to check 20 balloons per block and plans to increase the number to 100 balloons per block. Ethereum 2.0, in turn, will support 64 cities by design.
Governance
Ethereum 2.0 governance is still unresolved. Currently, the platform uses off-chain governance procedures such as GitHub discussions and All Core Devs calls to make decisions.
Polkadot refers to chain management. There are several ways to submit a proposal - for example from the Technical Committee, the circuit board, or the public. All proposals are then put to a public referendum, the result of which is determined by a majority vote.
