According to Polygon's Q1 2024 report from Messari, Polygon gaming activity surged in the first quarter of 2024, with daily gaming active addresses up 1,615% to 207,000 and daily gaming transactions up 469% to 734,000. Polygon's stablecoin market cap increased to $1.5 billion, up 19% year-over-year. USDT consolidated its position as the leading stablecoin, with a market cap up 29% year-over-year to $792 million, accounting for 53% of the total stablecoin market cap. Polygon Labs launched AggLayer, which aims to unify the liquidity and state of any chain connected to AggLayer. AggLayer aggregates proofs of chain state to ensure cryptographic security and unified liquidity for cross-chain transactions. Polygon Labs announced the development of a Type 1 ZKEVM prover. Type 1 provers are equivalent to Ethereum, enabling any existing EVM chain to become a ZK chain and to use existing EVM clients directly. Astar launched the Astar zkEVM on mainnet, built using the Polygon Chain Development Kit and connected to the AggLayer. Astar is one of many Polygon CDK chains in development, including Immutable, Manta, OKX, Hypr Network, Moonveil, FlipKart, OEV Network, Libre, Arianee, and others.
