Polygon (POL), the native cryptocurrency of the Polygon blockchain, fell 4% today as users experienced delays caused by node bugs. The outage disrupted some Remote Procedure Call (RPC) services, affecting dApps and causing daily trading volume to drop 17%. Despite these setbacks, the core blockchain remained operational, continuing to produce blocks.
Polygon confirmed that several RPC providers and validators needed to rewind to the last finalized block and resynchronize operations. Restarting affected nodes has restored normal functionality for most participants, highlighting the critical connection between node consensus and user access. The network issue follows the Heimdall v2 mainnet upgrade in July, marking the first significant disruption since the update.
UPDATE: Temporary Delay in Finality

POL Price Momentum Remains Intact
Despite today’s pullback, POL’s monthly chart shows a 13% rally, largely driven by gains after September 1. Technical analysis indicates that POL is trading within an ascending channel, forming higher highs and higher lows since July. Current projections suggest potential upside toward the $0.32–$0.33 range, representing a possible 20% gain from today’s price of $0.27.
The recent network upgrade from MATIC to POL, finalized on September 3, allows native staking directly on Ethereum, enabling users to earn validator rewards. This transition is seen as a long-term positive for the Polygon ecosystem, bolstering investor confidence despite short-term disruptions.
