Polygon Plans 33% Transaction Capacity Boost for Stablecoin Demand
Polygon Labs is preparing a significant network upgrade to increase transaction throughput by 33% ahead of anticipated stablecoin growth. The Q4 2025 enhancement will raise the block gas limit from 45 million to 60 million, enabling 1,428 transactions per block versus the current 1,071.
"We refuse to wait until congestion becomes critical," said Adam Dossa, Polygon's engineering lead. The team is concurrently testing state growth solutions on its Amoy testnet, including experimental statements verification technology.
This preemptive scaling comes as Polygon's stablecoin transactions surge 40% monthly in 2025. The network positions itself as a payments-focused chain with competitive finality speeds and block inclusion guarantees.
