On Friday, Polygon Labs announced via X that Circle’s CCTP V2 has launched on the Polygon blockchain. Key benefits for developers and users:
-
Fast Transfer: crosschain USDC settlement in seconds
-
Hooks: smart contract integrations for post-transfer actions
-
Capital Efficient: 1:1 burn-and-mint, no liquidity pools or fillers
-
Secured by Circle: no additional trust assumptions
Polygon PoS is now securely connected to a network of CCTP V2-supported blockchains, including: Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Codex, Ethereum, Linea, Optimism Mainnet, Solana, Sonic Labs, Unichain, and World Chain.
Polygon (previously Matic Network) is the first well-structured, easy-to-use platform for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development. Its core component is Polygon SDK, a modular, flexible framework that supports building multiple types of applications. POL is up 3.2% in the last 24 hours and trades at $0.1824.
