Great review on @0xPolygon 👇🏽 $POL will go thru the roof, once crypto catches fire again! Why? -> Because people use only what they trust. -> And what they trust, they buy. & everyone uses @0xPolygon 🔥

@sandeepnailwal @ShahofPol 🌍🙏🏽

Not sure how many are tracking this but Polygon is doing 48% of all APAC non USD stablecoin volume and 69% of LatAm. Everyone watches USDC and USDT and yeah we are number 1 in USDC active addresses across all chains and number 3 in USDT which is already huge. But for all money to move onchain, all local currency must move onchain and its starting to and its happening on Polygon. The GLOBAL payments chain 💜

Built for global money movement.

There was a time when institutional finance moved behind closed doors. Banks processed transactions through private rails. Governments settled payments through secured infrastructure. Corporations handled treasury operations without exposing sensitive financial data to the public. Privacy wasn’t optional. It was part of the infrastructure. Then came blockchain. While blockchain introduced transparency, speed and global accessibility, it also created a major challenge for institutions: ▪️ Every transaction became visible. Wallet activity could be tracked. Treasury movements became public. Payment flows were exposed in real time. ▪️ For retail users, transparency felt revolutionary. ▪️ For institutions handling billions in settlements, payroll, trade finance and cross-border payments, it created hesitation. Because institutions cannot operate critical financial infrastructure on systems where every transaction is fully exposed. That has been one of the biggest barriers preventing large-scale institutional adoption of blockchain technology. Now, @0xPolygon is changing that narrative. With the Polygon CDK Privacy Upgrade, institutions can launch custom private chains connected directly to global onchain liquidity through @Agglayer, powered by @SuccinctLabs SP1 Hypercube proving system. This is a major evolution for onchain finance. Instead of choosing between: 🔸 Privacy or liquidity 🔸 Compliance or interoperability 🔸 Security or scalability Institutions can now have all three within one modular infrastructure stack. Here’s how it works: ▪️ Institutions can deploy custom private chains using Polygon CDK. ▪️ Sensitive transaction data remains confidential through validium architecture. ▪️ Proofs are generated using SuccinctLabs’ SP1 Hypercube proving system. ▪️ Chains remain connected to Agglayer for unified liquidity and interoperability. ▪️ Assets and liquidity can move across chains without exposing sensitive internal data. ▪️ Institutions maintain privacy while still participating in the broader onchain economy. This upgrade addresses a real infrastructure problem. Traditional institutions have always required: 🔸 Confidential settlements 🔸 Private treasury operations 🔸 Secure internal transfers 🔸 Regulatory flexibility 🔸 Controlled data visibility Public blockchains were never designed with these institutional requirements in mind. That limitation slowed adoption. Polygon’s Privacy Upgrade changes the equation by making blockchain infrastructure compatible with institutional operational standards. The impact of this upgrade could be massive for global payments and financial infrastructure. Benefits this institutional-grade confidentiality can unlock: 🔸 More institutions entering onchain finance 🔸 Faster and more secure payment infrastructure 🔸 Improved cross-border settlement efficiency 🔸 Reduced operational friction for enterprises 🔸 Access to shared liquidity without sacrificing privacy 🔸 Better compliance-ready blockchain environments 🔸 Increased confidence for large-scale capital deployment 🔸 Expansion of tokenized real-world asset markets 🔸 More scalable enterprise blockchain adoption Types of institutions that may benefit from this upgrade, subject to applicable laws and regulations: 🔸 Commercial banks 🔸 Investment firms 🔸 Payment processors 🔸 Fintech companies 🔸 Central bank infrastructure experiments 🔸 Asset managers 🔸 Insurance companies 🔸 Enterprise treasury systems 🔸 Cross-border remittance providers 🔸 Supply chain finance networks 🔸 Stablecoin issuers 🔸 Trading firms 🔸 Corporate settlement networks 🔸 Tokenized asset platforms This is bigger than just another blockchain upgrade.

Happy to announce that privacy on @0xPolygon is now evolving way beyond simple wallet anonymity. One thing that's becoming very clear lately is that institutions want blockchain rails but they definitely don’t want all their transaction data sitting in public. This is why @0xPolygon just introduced a new upgraded Polygon CDK privacy setup powered by @SuccinctLabs. With the new validium configuration, transaction data stays inside infrastructure owned by the institution itself, while Ethereum only receives a proof that everything is valid. So basically, the chain stays private, but verification still happens on Ethereum. No need for every transaction detail to be exposed publicly. Another interesting feature about thus upgrade is that Institutions can choose different levels of privacy depending on what they need: > permissioned access > private transaction environments > confidential compute > encrypted token balances > even shielded wallet transactions And despite all that privacy, these chains still connect into Ethereum liquidity through @Agglayer. Feels like Polygon is building for the reality of how banks, payment companies, and large institutions actually want to operate onchain. Believe in @0xPolygon, the ticker is $POL 💜

Institutions can now run fully private blockchains with real global liquidity Polygon CDK Privacy Upgrade Transaction data stays 100% inside infrastructure you own and control. Ethereum only receives cryptographic commitment + ZK proof (via @SuccinctLabs - SP1). No raw data ever leaves. 5 privacy options: 1. Permissioned access (role-based RPC + enterprise SSO) 2. Confidential chain (new Validium mode) 3.Confidential compute (TEEs for dark pools & sealed auctions) 4. Confidential tokens (FHE) Live: Apex Group’s T-REX Ledger with Zama on ERC-3643 5. Client-side ZK (shielded transactions via @hinkal_protocol) zero migration headache Still fully connected via AggLayer to Ethereum, L2s, stablecoin liquidity, fiat ramps, wallets, and the rest of the Open Money Stack The chain is private. The economy around it is not. Banks issuing tokenized deposits, payments companies running stablecoin corridors, asset managers launching funds this is built for exactly that. Polygon CKD is private where it matters and connected where it counts.

@vadim_web3 @DefiLlama This is crazy 😭😭😭

Dear DefiLlama @DefiLlama, how can Polygon generate 4x less in chain fees than Polymarket spent on gas in a single day while operating on Polygon? I think you vibecoded an error into your methodology. You’re probably off by 10x.

👀👀🚀🚀

AggLayer is now officially chain-agnostic. And I still think most people don’t realize how important this is. @0xMiden just became the first non-EVM chain connected to AggLayer. That matters because Miden is not a typical chain: • It doesn’t use the EVM • It runs on its own VM architecture • It is built around real ZK privacy • Transactions are not publicly exposed by default But until now, there was one major tradeoff: isolation. You could have privacy but not access to shared liquidity. Now Miden is connected to AggLayer’s unified liquidity layer without giving up privacy. That’s the real breakthrough here. Private chains no longer need to stay isolated. Non-EVM chains no longer need to stay outside the system. And this is exactly what @0xPolygon is building: different chains operating like one unified network.

Privacy and connectivity are both requirements for real institutional adoption. With Polygon CDK, institutions can launch private chains without cutting themselves off from global liquidity.

This is a significant positive development for Polygon (and its $POL token ecosystem), positioning AggLayer as a leading interoperability solution beyond just EVM-compatible chains.

NEW: Polygon CDK has introduced a new privacy upgrade that lets institutions launch private chains while staying connected to global liquidity. The new validium setup, powered by Succinct, keeps raw transaction data inside institution-operated infrastructure. while Ethereum only verifies cryptographic commitments and ZK proofs. Private data. Public verification. @0xPolygon @sandeepnailwal

More institutional-grade privacy options are live with Polygon CDK. Launch a custom private chain connected to global onchain liquidity, with a new validium configuration powered by @SuccinctLabs. Private where it matters. Actually connected where it counts.

🚨LATEST: @0xPolygon has reduced its block time to 1.75 seconds in its first major upgrade since launch, aiming to significantly improve transaction speed and network efficiency.

Every institutional conversation I have end with a desire for privacy AND liquidity, not one or the other. Polygon CDK delivers both. Custom private chain, data stays in your infra, Agglayer connects you to the rest of crypto from day one.

Another big barrier to bringing institutions onchain just came down. Its a privacy upgrade for CDK, a new stack for privacy focused financial institutions to spin up their own private chain and still tap the full onchain economy through Agglayer. Privacy + liquidity in one place which is what theyve been asking for for years. @SuccinctLabs team have been collaborators of ours on open source ZK for years. Massive respect for what theyre building, lot more to do together 🙏

Polygon is one of seven organizations behind the EEA's first enterprise privacy report. Over the past few months, we helped map enterprise privacy solutions across Ethereum, assessed against a unified framework of institutional requirements. Privacy, combined with liquidity, is core to what Polygon CDK offers. You can see the evaluation in the report, publicly available at: entethalliance.github.io/wg-privacy
