Since Polygon Labs announced its multichain vision June 2023 it has made influential developments. A key development in this journey has been the introduction of the Polygon Chain Development Kit (CDK) which is designed to empower projects to launch their own Ethereum Layer 2 chains and integrate easily into the broader Polygon ecosystem. This strategic move aims to improve the utility and scalability of the Polygon network and potentially boosting its market value and user base.
On partnership, a collaboration between Cros and Polygon aims to transform the gaming industry by linking game developers, advertisers and a massive audience of 3 billion players. The partnership leverages $CROS to drive in-game advertising, utilizing Ethereum’s Layer 2 solutions to ensure quicker transactions, reduced costs and AI driven monetization strategies. This could greatly enhance player engagement and open new revenue streams for developers.

The technical indicators also offer additional insights. The MACD has just recently seen a bullish crossover and is currently above the signal line indicating increasing bullish momentum over the last four days as indicated by the daily candles closing bullish.
The Relative Strength Index stands at 52 which means that the market is neither in an overbought nor an oversold region and provides room for potential movement on either side.
The 50 day Exponential Moving Average is currently below the current market price which signals a potential support while the 100 and 200 EMAs are positioned at $0.84 and $0.85 respectively, acting as resistance levels.
If MATIC successfully breaks out and closes above the current resistance it could confirm recovery signs and begin a bullish trend reversal, pushing the price towards $0.90 recent high and approaching the $1.00 mark where there is an ascending trendline. On the other side, a rejection at this resistance level could lead to a retest of the $0.59 low or even more drop to the $0.50 horizontal support level.
