Polygon has made a breakthrough in the US Web3 payment space. This development includes a regulated payment framework spanning 48 US states, a two-way conversion channel between fiat and crypto assets, and access to a network of over 50,000 fiat-crypto merchants. In terms of market size, this blockchain payment infrastructure rollout in the US unlocks enormous ecosystem opportunities — not only in terms of merchant coverage but more importantly in establishing compliant payment channels, which could reshape the role of cryptocurrencies in traditional commerce.
