MATIC, the native cryptocurrency of Polygon, has experienced a rise in value to $0.89 due to a it’s recent 62% increase in market capitalization. The presence of whales in the Polygon network has been linked to its latest comeback. Polygon capacity in the layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum has continued to improve the effectiveness and scalability of the Ethereum network, hence improving its popularity in the cryptocurrency community.

Large cryptocurrency investors, known as “whales,” have been actively interacting with MATIC, which has increased the market capitalization of the platform. Whales’ increased involvement reflects the rising understanding of Polygon’s significance within the larger blockchain ecosystem.

According to the two companies, the partnership aims to create an interesting web3 gaming experience using Web3 technologies – with Polygon working as its digital assets of choice. News has it that MATIC has been selected to power the Immutable zkEVM project. Immutable zkEVM has been described as the first gaming platform to usher in zero-knowledge (zk) scaling projects in the ETH community.

MARIC Breaks Bounds, Immutable, And MATIC Forms Partnership

MATIC has been making efforts to increase above the $0.80 price mark since July. Data extracted from Santiment confirms this activity. The report has it that some anonymous wallets with 100 thousand – 10 million units of MATIC at some point accumulated an extra 42.88 million units. It also revealed that this has been happening since the 24th of October.

The record shows that the 161 transactions worth over $100,000 each were recorded in 24 hours, thus, the biggest transaction recorded since July. However, a Web3 gaming company, Immutable, has announced its partnership with Ubisoft. Immutable X will work with the StarkWare technology and is currently part of Polygon’s multiple ZK-based scaling projects.

The idea has solidified Polygon’s position as an important part of blockchain and video game development. As of press time, MATIC is trading at $0.82, with a strong propensity to surge higher. This happened after it slowed down at $0.65 for a while before sliding into the $0.70 position – taking refuge in a safe zone like the BTC and ETH.
