My take on Polymarket launching its own L2: this is good for both Polymarket and @0xPolygon. Was against it in the first place but after reading so many reviews, I came to agree with @Polymarket. Polymarket outgrew being “just another app” on a shared L2. Running their own chain gives them tighter control over uptime, fees, and UX, which matters a lot for a real-time prediction market with massive spikes in activity. At the same time, Polygon doesn’t lose here the way people think. Polygon’s long-term strategy is infrastructure, not app dependency. Successful teams graduating to app-specific chains actually validates Polygon’s thesis: scale first, specialize later. This looks less like a breakup and more like a maturation: •Polymarket becomes an app-chain optimized for its needs •Polygon continues positioning itself as the on-ramp and aggregation layer for scaling Ethereum If anything, this is a sign the ecosystem is working.
