With bullish sentiments looming over the crypto industry’s imminent bull market, crypto token, Polygon, is generating significant buzz. Could it be the dark horse of 2024?

For the second day in a row, Polygon proof-of-stake (POS) has had a higher trading volume than Ethereum.

Could Polygon be the Dark Horse in the Next Bull Market?

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), co-founder of Polygon Sandeep Nailwal declares that Polygon POS reached higher trading volume than Ethereum, by approximately $93,000.

At the time of publication, Polygon ( MATIC ) price stands at $0.82.

This follows news that Fox Corporation has partnered with Polygon to verify the accuracy of news content.

According to a statement from Polygon, the program is called Verify. Publishers can register their content in order to “prove origination.”

The data will be stored on the Polygon blockchain. This will allow customers to decipher what is accurate sources, from what is not, using the tool.

Meanwhile, prominent crypto influencer Lark Davis pointed out to his 1.1 million followers that “Polygon POS has surpassed Solana in terms of daily active addresses.”

Polygon’s Price Coverage in Recent Times

BeInCrypto has been reporting on MATIC’s price movements regularly in recent times.

On January 9, it was reported that Polygon’s MATIC price bounced after the team announced a new upgrade on transaction fee calculations.

Despite the bounce, MATIC still trades inside a bearish pattern. This has gone on for nearly 60 days.

Furthermore, it was reported that the  MATIC price experienced a decline below a long-term descending resistance trend line since December 2021, when it was trading at its all-time high of $2.90.

This rapid descent led to a low of $0.32 in June.

Overnight US stock market crash: A reflexivity storm triggered by a $100 billion “early exit”

A wave of $100 billion in mechanical selling pressure triggered a "head start" on Wall Street, but these early moves by smart money instead accelerated the sell-off: the Nasdaq fell 6.4% in a single day, semiconductors plunged 12%, and the “best of the year” AI and energy barbell trades collapsed within 48 hours. Even more dangerously, lagging selling pressure is still on its way. This reflexive storm demonstrates that when everyone knows the same script and acts on it simultaneously, the script itself stops working.

S&P evaporates 2.8 trillion in a single day, BTIG warns: This is not the bottom, the real sell-off has just begun

BTIG Chief Technical Strategist Krinsky warns that yesterday's sharp decline in the US stock market is not the bottom, but just the beginning. Nearly 70% of S&P 500 components are still trading above their 200-day moving average, and elevated breadth indicators suggest that the sell-off is far from over. If "defensive sectors" such as healthcare and consumer staples start to fall as well, the real "generals and soldiers falling together" will occur, and the S&P may head straight for 7000 points.
