Compared to most competitors, such as Arbitrum, Aptos, and Ethereum, active addresses increased 30 percent to 14.2 million in the same period.

DEX activity is also emphatic. DeFi Llama displays that DEX protocols have been used to process over 210 million in volume within 24 hours, and monthly DEX transactions were 5.72 billion on Polygon.

Technical Setup Points to Potential Reversal

The POL token dropped to where it was in November 2024, which was 0.766. September rebounded and reached a resistance at $0.2970.

First, the price exhibited a head-and-shoulders. Both 50-day and 200-day moving averages are above the present price.

A falling-wedge pattern now appears on the charts. Trendlines converging have indicated that the time to launch a bullish breakout could be quite close, which usually leads to an increase.

Momentum indicators are also showing bullish divergence. The Relative Strength Index, as well as the Percentage Price Oscillator, are both moving in an upward direction, which is against the falling price movement.

Once the price exceeds the value of 0.1520, it would indicate the reversal pattern. This is the second resistance area, and additional gains might be achieved after the technical setup is confirmed.
