Sandeep Nailwal正式擔任Polygon Foundation的首席執行官職位，更新路線圖

新首席執行官將鞏固控制和重新定位團隊朝著Agglayer - Polygon的新跨鏈流動性協議

Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nailwal has officially assumed the role of CEO of the Polygon Foundation, consolidating control and pivoting the organization toward its new cross-chain liquidity protocol, AggLayer.

Polygon聯合創始人Sandeep Nailwal已正式擔任Polygon基金會首席執行官的角色，鞏固控制並將組織樞轉朝著其新的跨鏈流動性協議Agglayer旋轉。

The move, announced Monday, is part of a broader strategic reset for the blockchain network, which is also winding down its zkEVM experiment and shifting focus toward real-world financial assets (RWAs).

週一宣布的此舉是區塊鍊網絡更廣泛的戰略重置的一部分，該網絡還將其ZKEVM實驗結束，並將重點轉移到現實世界中的金融資產（RWAS）上。

"This renewed control marks the beginning of a strategic push for Polygon to reclaim its position at the forefront of Web3," the team stated in a press release.

該團隊在新聞稿中說：“這種更新的控制標誌著多邊形在Web3的最前沿地位的戰略推動力的開始。”

As chief executive, Nailwal will oversee long-term planning, guide key ecosystem initiatives, and ensure that the foundation — which umbrellas key entities like Polygon Labs — delivers "exponential growth, increased focus and greater value to POL stakers."

作為首席執行官，Nailwal將監督長期計劃，指導關鍵的生態系統計劃，並確保基金會（Polygon Labs）的基金會（Polygon Labs）提供了“指數級增長，增加的重點和對Pol Stakers的價值更高”。

In its early days, Polygon’s proof-of-stake sidechain marketed itself as a low-cost, fast alternative to Ethereum, providing users with access to decentralized apps without the burden of high gas fees. It quickly rose to prominence as a go-to Ethereum scaling solution.

在早期，Polygon的Stake Sidechain證明是作為以太坊的低成本，快速替代品的銷售，為用戶提供了訪問分散的應用程序而沒有高汽油費用的負擔。作為首選以太坊縮放解決方案，它迅速引起了人們的關注。

But activity has since cooled. Total value locked (TVL) across Polygon networks has fallen to around $1 billion, down nearly 90% from its June 2021 peak of $9.79 billion, according to DefiLlama.

但是活動已經冷卻了。根據Defillama的數據，多邊形網絡的總價值鎖定（TVL）已跌至10億美元，比2021年6月的峰值下降了近90％。

Polygon has also ceded ground to a new wave of Ethereum scaling networks — namely "layer-2 rollups" like Optimism and Arbitrum — which offer similar user experiences but with tighter Ethereum compatibility and more sophisticated security systems.

Polygon還將地面割讓到新一波的以太坊縮放網絡（即樂觀和仲裁之類的“第2層匯總”），它們提供了類似的用戶體驗，但具有更緊密的以太坊兼容性和更複雜的安全系統。

Polygon's own rollup, zkEVM, ranks just 27th by TVL among layer-2s, according to L2Beat, trailing well behind its newer competitors.

根據L2Beat的說法，Polygon自己的匯總ZKEVM僅在第2層中排名第27位，落後於新的競爭對手。

Now, the zkEVM experiment is being phased out. Polygon said it will sunset the zkEVM Mainnet Beta in 2026, citing developer friction, architectural limitations, and sluggish adoption. "To ensure a smooth transition, the sequencer will remain live for the next twelve months and the network will continue to be fully operational," the team noted.

現在，ZKEVM實驗正在逐步淘汰。 Polygon表示，它將在2026年日落ZKEVM Mainnet Beta，並以開發人員的摩擦，建築限制和採用緩慢的方式來日落。該團隊指出：“為了確保順利過渡，音序器將在接下來的十二個月中保持生命，並且網絡將繼續完全運行。”

The decision also comes with a key personnel shift: Jordi Baylina, Polygon's zero-knowledge research lead, will be leaving the foundation to spin out his own project, ZisK.

該決定還帶來了關鍵的人員轉變：Polygon的零知識研究負責人Jordi Baylina將離開基金會啟動自己的項目Zisk。

"We wish Jordi all the best in his endeavors and look forward to seeing what ZisK achieves in the years to come," the team stated.

該團隊說：“我們希望喬迪在他的努力中一切順利，並期待看到Zisk在未來幾年中取得的成就。”

As part of its strategic pivot, Polygon will be doubling down on its flagship PoS sidechain, now targeting RWA integration. The foundation hinted at an "ambitious roadmap" with milestones to transform the chain into a "gigagas" network capable of processing 100,000 transactions per second and securing trillions in tokenized assets.

作為其戰略樞紐的一部分，多邊形將使其旗艦POS Sidechain縮減，現在針對RWA集成。該基金會暗示了一個“雄心勃勃的路線圖”，其里程碑將鏈條轉變為“ Gigagas”網絡，該網絡能夠處理每秒100,000筆交易，並確保了幾萬億美元的標記資產。

The move follows a period of heightened scrutiny from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which has been investigating several crypto projects, including those that tokenize real-world assets.

此舉是在美國證券交易委員會（SEC）進行了一段時間的審查之後，該委員會一直在調查多個加密項目，包括那些將現實世界中資產的項目進行調查。

In a post on X, Nailwal said Ethereum's "existential crisis" had pushed Polygon to revisit its core identity — returning to a bolder, more nimble, and more decisive "zero-to-one" mentality.

Nailwal在X上的一篇文章中說，以太坊的“生存危機”促使多邊形重新審視其核心身份 - 返回更大膽，更靈活，更具果斷性的“零對一”的心態。

His stated goal: "to deliver greater value to POL stakers and bring increased clarity to the broader market." POL, previously called MATIC, is Polygon's native token. The asset can be "staked" with Polygon's PoS network to help secure it in exchange for rewards.

他陳述的目標是：“為Pol Stakers帶來更大的價值，並提高更廣闊的市場。” POL先前稱為Matic，是多邊形的本地令牌。資產可以用Polygon的POS網絡“固定”，以幫助獲得它以換取獎勵。

The timing of the revamp, Nailwal suggested, could work in POL's favor.

Nailwal建議，改裝的時機可以對POL有利。

"The SEC has dropped its investigations and lawsuits related to MATIC as a security, which should have never existed given the nature of MATIC (and now POL), and we are excited to see several large market makers coming back to the table in recent days to make markets in POL that strengthens the liquidity of POL on exchanges globally."

“ SEC已經放棄了與Matic作為安全性有關的調查和訴訟，鑑於Matic（現在是POL）的性質，這絕對不應該存在，我們很高興看到最近幾天的幾個大型做市商回到餐桌上，以使POL的市場在全球範圍內增強POL的流動性。”
