When I met Sandeep in Korea at KBW this year, I thought something was unusual. He was truly committed to @0xPolygon, returning with a renewed focus and a strong determination to provide meaningful benefits to Polygon holders. Since then, the Polygon team's focus has been so clear that the mantra "Polygon is for Payments" has been ringing in my ears. Under @0xAishwary's leadership, Polygon has joined major payment platforms like Revolut, Mastercard, and Stripe. This Open Money Stack announcement is an extension of that focus, and the most crucial part is in the article below. Most of the current Coinpan content can be refuted in a single line. "So the coin is going up?" Most retailers invest to bet on the success of a specific chain or project, but the two are losing their correlation. A prime example is the recent Axelar case, where the team was acquired while the token was simply abandoned. In this context, one line in Sandeep's article caught my eye: "If Polygon Chain and Agglayer succeed, then $POL holders benefit. Full stop." Ultimately, if the Polygon Chain and Agglayer ecosystem thrive, Polygon holders will benefit. We will strengthen that connection. This may seem like a simple statement, but it's a bold one. These days, tokens often distance themselves from each other by citing governance and other issues, suggesting that token price and project performance aren't necessarily aligned. As Polygon has been a graveyard for many, many have been affected. I'm very interested to see if this challenge can truly turn Polygon around and position it as a new payment and financial company. Personally, based on what they've shown last year and early this year, I think they're working harder and more sincerely than many other teams.

Oh, looking at your recent actions, there is definitely a difference in temperature.
