It's notable that Matic is one of the most pumped coins in every market pump. Alongside with the news, we should consider some facts:
1- Although we are in a bear market, Matic is now the 5th Blockchain protocol in TVL (Total Value Locked).
2- Matic is one of the best assets with regards to development activities in the past two years.
The project development seems to be going on. That proves the team are serious, unlike a lot of projects with high market caps that stopped or slowed down the development of their products.
These metrics tells us there's more to MATIC "than meets the eye". I'm pretty sure this coin will "explode" in price after the next bull market. It might rise all the way to the top 5 ranks in market cap someday. If Solana went to around $200 per coin (even though it's an extremely-centralized and flawed chain), then Polygon (MATIC) could easily hit $20 per coin. Early holders of the coin like myself would become filthy rich if that happens. The cryptocurrency is still trading within the $1 range, so why not take the opportunity to grow your stack of coins for the future?
Depending on how popular MATIC gets, it's possible it could displace Solana as the leading chain for NFTs. Only then, it will compete with BNB as the third-biggest smart contract platform in the world. It won't compete with ETH directly, especially when Polygon relies on the ETH blockchain for security (sort of like a sidechain). With blazing-fast speeds and low gas fees, MATIC has everything it needs to reach mass adoption worldwide. Who knows how far will the cryptocurrency go? Just my thoughts
