Polygon’s MATIC Crypto Shoots 20%, Polygon Joins Disney’s Accelerator Program

MATIC, the native cryptocurrency of the Polygon blockchain has given a solid breakout in the last 24 hours. The MATIC price has shot up by 18% moving up all the way to $0.64. With this move, Polygon’s MATIC has also extended its weekly gains to 24%.

While the broader crypto market has been trading under pressure over the last month, MATIC has been showing strength. It has boosted investors’ wealth by nearly 50% over the last month. However, on-chain data provide Santiment has asked investors to maintain caution at this point from building any fresh positions. Santiment predicts a cooldown in the near term. The data provider wrote:

#PolygonNetwork has enjoyed a nice +20% price day as #crypto enjoyed a mild pump after #CPI data. Be cautious of the fact that average traders are +28% on $MATIC in the past 30 days, which is the highest level since October. A cooldown may be required.
