Polygon Q4 Transaction Volatility Linked to FTX Collapse, ZK Rollup Testing: Nansen

According to Nansen, the Ethereum scaling tool Polygon saw wide swings in daily transactions and active addresses during the fourth quarter as users scrambled to move funds during the epic meltdown of Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX crypto exchange. The tremendous addition of daily addresses was also partly due to Polygon’s zero-knowledge EVM public testnet launch. "The Hash" panel discusses the report and the outlook for Polygon.
