Polygon

Polygon usage is going through the roof.

During a period of ATH usage, the network generated 13,600,000+ $POL in fees (up 7.2X) and burned 12,500,000+ POL (up 10X).

Following this period of ATH usage and heightened gas prices, the Dandeli hardfork has successfully stabilized gas costs on Polygon. At this juncture of Polygon’s growth we want to ensure the network remains as economical as possible to invite more and more users into the ecosystem.

What’s new: More capacity per block. More predictable fees when demand gets heavy.
• ~30% increase in network peak capacity
• gas target change to 65% from 50%

Throughput can now scale higher when demand is present, currently reaching 20mgas/s.

In the future, we will be working on making both gas limit and gas target dynamic so they can adjust to maintain gas fees at healthy levels making it suitable for the users while also making sure that the chain earns sufficient fees.

The Gigagas roadmap is in full swing for Polygon and primed to bring all money onchain.

We’ll be monitoring base gas closely over the coming days and fine-tuning parameters as needed. Upgrade at Block 81424000.

2026 is the year $POL powers global money movement

save it.

Polygon is building The Open Money Stack 🧱

Moving money onchain is not just about speed.
It is about making money work seamlessly, everywhere.

$POL vision is to move all money onchain by building an open, integrated money stack.

Blockchain rails, wallet infrastructure, crosschain interoperability, and stablecoin orchestration are designed to work together as one system.

This is a full-stack approach to how money moves and settles globally.

Payments fade into the background when infrastructure is reliable and interoperable.

#Polygon

Telcoin Digital Asset Bank is now the first Digital Asset Depository Institution in the U.S., following the launch of its eUSD stablecoin on Polygon.

This marks the first time a dollar-backed stablecoin has been issued directly by a bank on a public blockchain.

Powered by $POL, the default rails for global onchain payments.

By making blockchain payments invisible to the end user, integrated with everyday traditional payment experiences, and delivering superior speed and cost efficiency, we're seeing the future of finance unfold.

2025 was a banner year for payments enabled by $POL , with November surpassing over $1.27B in monthly volume from payments apps.

“User adoption — that’s the only metric that matters. Tech milestones are great for the crypto audience, but our priority is always users.”


$POL founder @Sandeep | CEO, Polygon Foundation on why we focus on payments, abstracting away complexities to make blockchain invisible, and why we care about users more than anything.
