Polygon (MATIC) Soars 13% Weekly Amid Bear Market – Here’s Why

Despite the prolonged bear market still punching most of the TOP 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap in the face, Polygon (MATIC) has managed to stay in the green with 13% gains in the last 7 days. Ranked #14, Polygon (MATIC) trades at $0.840088, according to CoinGecko. Thus, Polygon (MATIC) is among the top gainers since last week, trailing only Maker (MKR) and Elrond (EGLD), which recorded 13.5% and 15.8% gains, respectively.

Furthermore, according to statistics provided by LunarCrush, Polygon’s native $MATIC project tops the popular blockchain game Decentraland (MANA) as the most mentioned on Twitter. This proves the flexibility of the company that has been rebranded in 2020.
