The relationship between Polygon and Polymarket is quite intriguing—it's hard to tell who is supporting whom anymore.

Looking at recent data makes it clear. Polygon's block validator daily revenue broke through $380,000 yesterday, a 46-fold increase compared to a month ago. This growth rate is simply outrageous.

The driving force behind this is Polymarket's explosive trading volume. This prediction market platform has experienced a surge in traffic recently, directly boosting the transaction fee revenue of the entire chain. As a result, Polygon has successfully taken the title of "most profitable" among top L2 chains, and the cash flow effects on the chain are immediately evident.

This kind of positive interaction is quite interesting—a useful application sustains the chain's revenue, and the chain's development, in turn, attracts more applications.

ngl, 46x in a month screams unsustainable... we've seen this movie before. polymarket's volume spike is real but let's not pretend this isn't just mev extraction theatre wearing a different mask. curious how long polygon's sequencer revenue holds when the market inevitably corrects. the "virtuous cycle" narrative is cute until it isn't

Polymarket really saved Polygon this time, with $380,000 per day, which is truly crazy... However, such dependence is a bit high. What if Polymarket declines?

46 times? That's a bit scary. Polymarket directly propelled Polygon to new heights.

46x? That's outrageous, really outrageous, but the key is how long Polymarket can hold up in this wave.

Bro, 46x? This growth rate is really unmatched. Polygon has definitely benefited from the Polymarket dividend.

46x? No way, is this real? Is Polygon about to turn things around?

honestly if you look at the data, this feels like classic ponzi dynamics wrapped in "network effects" language... 46x in a month? that's either unsustainable or we're missing something sketchy tbh
