Polygon's native token POL has been very active recently, completing upgrades and optimization of the burn mechanism, and now there are reports of an upcoming acquisition of Bitcoin ATM operator Coinme. What are the considerations behind this series of moves?

From a strategic perspective, acquiring Coinme can expand fiat on/off ramps, which is indeed helpful for the popularization of Web3 applications. But the question is—what signals are these intensive actions sending? Are they actively expanding the ecosystem layout, or are they quick responses under market pressure?

Honestly, POL's price trend has not been very ideal recently, with a noticeable decline. In this context, the project team accelerating the release of various positive measures may inevitably lead to some speculation. However, from an ecosystem perspective, the combination of upgrades, burns, and acquisitions is also an attempt to strengthen the token's long-term value support.

How things will develop next still requires observation. Whether these actions can truly boost market confidence depends mainly on the subsequent execution and the actual implementation of applications.

When the price drops, they start to manipulate in various ways. I'm very familiar with this trick... However, Coinme can indeed solve the pain points of deposits and withdrawals, I have to admit that.

Ha, it's another rescue package, with upgrades, destruction, and mergers all in one. I'm too familiar with this routine. When the price drops, they start pulling out big moves. Honestly, I'm just watching to see if the acquisition of Coinme can really materialize.

Basically, it's about bottom-fishing for self-rescue. When the price drops this much and you can still stay calm to pursue mergers and acquisitions, either you genuinely have a plan or you're just gambling. It's already good if the Coinme thing can come to fruition.

When the price isn't doing well, they start throwing out big moves. I'm very familiar with this tactic. The Coinme acquisition is indeed a gimmick, but can it be implemented effectively? The key depends on what happens next.

Huh? Doing the same old tricks again, burning coins and doing mergers and acquisitions when the price drops. I'm already tired of this routine. Wait until it really materializes before bragging. Nothing you say now is worth anything.

It's starting to be bullish again, but the decline in POL... well, not so sure. Polygon has been making quite a few moves recently—acquiring Coinme, implementing a burn mechanism, upgrades... It feels like all just preheating before a pump? Honestly, I can't tell if the project team truly has a strategy or if they're just gambling on the market. Let's wait and see the actual results. Anything said now is just talk.
