📈 A Polarized Market Landscape

· Token prices under pressure: As of March 2026, POL is trading in the approximate $0.09 - $0.11 range, down more than 60% over the past year, with a clear pullback from historical highs.
· Strong fundamental growth: The number of active addresses on-chain has increased by 425% year over year, and annual payment transaction volume has grown by 399%, indicating strong real demand for actual network usage.

🚀 Three Major Core Development Momentum

1. Strong deflationary mechanisms and economic model upgrades: The EIP-1559 upgrade has already burned over 12.5 million POL; the new proposal PIP-85 is seeking to reform fee distribution to enhance token value capture.
2. Focusing on payments and RWA (real-world assets): A blockbuster $250 million acquisition of Coinme connects “cash on-chain” channels; it has been adopted by industry giants such as BlackRock ($500 million) and Mastercard, and has been selected for the Nasdaq stock tokenization pilot.
3. A leap in performance on an index level: Introducing AggLayer to achieve thousands-level TPS (target 100,000); improving liquidity of staked assets through dPOL and other methods.
