Sentient @SentientAGI Another reason why this project has unlimited potential is because the team members are insanely strong. It's a hexagonal warrior project with maxed-out resources, technology, and funding. Sandeep is the Co-founder of @SentientAGI and also the CEO of Polygon Foundation. When he came to Shenzhen for an offline event, I had a quick chat with him. Their team is super dedicated—every co-founder personally flies to different countries to host offline events and introduce the project. In June, Sandeep Nailwal announced: He would personally take on the role of CEO of Polygon Foundation and fully take charge of the project's direction. The reason is straightforward: Polygon needs more centralized leadership to refocus on its core strategy. Plus, he’s the largest holder of POL and has been committed to the development and success of @0xPolygon since the beginning. Initially, he hoped Polygon Foundation could operate in a fully institutionalized manner, but now he believes that structure is too slow and conservative. Polygon must return to its startup roots, becoming faster and more agile. Sandeep’s statement is essentially a reset: Polygon once aimed to become an institutional-grade Ethereum Layer 2, but the institutional pace is too slow, and the market dynamics have shifted: From the research era → to the user era. So, he decided to turn Polygon back into a bold, risk-taking startup. (Hahaha, basically they wanted to become like a state-owned enterprise, but realized it’s too inefficient and conservative. Startups are still the way to go!) So, Polygon will also undergo directional changes: 1️⃣ Focus on two main tracks: Polygon PoS + Agglayer Starting next year, zkEVM maintenance will stop. Polygon PoS will focus on stablecoin payments and RWA scenarios; Agglayer aims to create a trustless multi-chain internet, combining elements of Cosmos + LayerZero. Other side projects will be cut back to focus on the main tracks. 2️⃣ Performance upgrades: Gigagas plan to launch on testnet Polygon PoS throughput will increase to 1000+ TPS, with a future goal of <1-second finality and 5,000+ TPS. This means Polygon PoS will once again become one of the most high-performance public chains in the market. For POL stakers, this is a direct benefit as network revenue will increase. 3️⃣ Agglayer v0.3 launch 4️⃣ Continuation of the Breakout plan New projects will continue to be incubated within the Agglayer ecosystem; Each new project’s airdrop will reward POL stakers. Meanwhile, the ZK research division will be spun off into a new independent team, such as Polygon ZisK. 5️⃣ SEC has dropped its investigation into MATIC Market makers are starting to return; This brings stronger liquidity to POL. 6️⃣ Unified branding Agglayer will be fully integrated into the Polygon brand.
