Polygon Leads Bitcoin and Ether as Crypto Market Rebounds MATIC, the native token of Polygon Network, is leading the crypto market higher on Monday as investors look to layer 2 scaling solutions amid continued stress on Ethereum's network.
Messari data shows MATIC has risen by 40% in the past 24 hours, hitting 6.5-week highs above $0.50 and is up more than 2,500% on a year-to-date basis. Top coins such as bitcoin and ether have gained 8% and 10%, respectively, in the past 24 hours.
MATIC, now ranked 49th as per market capitalization, rose 5% last week even though broader markets faced selling pressure on fears of capital gains tax hike in the U.S.

Record activity on Ethereum has led to network congestion and high transaction costs this year. As such, there has been an increase in demand for Ethereum's rival Binance Smart Chain and scaling projects such as Polygon, which provides faster and cheaper transactions on Ethereum using Layer 2 sidechains – blockchains that run alongside the Ethereum main chain.
In recent weeks, Polygon's adoption has surged, with top names from the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) announcing integration with the layer 2 scaling solution in a bid to bypass congestion and high fees on Ethereum's network.
