#密码资产动态追踪 POL has performed remarkably recently — a 14%-19% increase over the past 24 hours, with the current price stable around $0.176. The 24-hour trading volume surged to $487 million, a 167% increase compared to the previous day. As an important asset in the Layer2 ecosystem, this rally has indeed attracted market attention.
Where does the driving force come from? First, the Polygon ecosystem has been very active. The official launch of Open Money Stack supports seamless stablecoin payments, and after integrating traditional payment channels like Stripe and Revolut, cross-border transaction efficiency has significantly improved — opening up considerable imagination space for the payment ecosystem.
Secondly, the deflationary mechanism is gaining strength. Over 3 million POL tokens were burned in a single day, setting a new record high, directly easing selling pressure. Network fees and on-chain activity are also rising in tandem, indicating genuine demand is being realized. More notably, Polygon’s CEO hinted on social platforms that a major announcement will be made on January 13, further fueling market expectations.
Capital flows are also quite interesting. USDT, as the main settlement currency, maintains a stable supply, and a large amount of capital is using USDT to allocate POL, both avoiding short-term market volatility risks and seizing rebound opportunities. From the low point of $0.098 in early 2026, POL has already increased by 78%, and a new narrative in the Layer2 track is unfolding.
The digital asset market in 2026 is in a new cycle, and how far Polygon’s scaling route can go is still under observation. For participants involved in such ecosystem tokens, both fundamentals and technicals need to be continuously monitored.
