Polygon zkEVM resumes operations after outage fix
Polygon Labs announced early Monday that the mainnet beta of Polygon zkEVM was back online after facing an extended outage over the weekend.
MATIC, the native token of the Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development platform, traded up after holding onto gains despite the sequencer issue that saw Polygon zkEVM mainnet beta go offline for several hours.
Per the update, which Polygon offered via X, the Polygon zkEVM core team was able to apply a fix after the Emergency Council for Polygon zkEVM activated an emergency state. Engineers have been able to resolve issues with L1 settlement of the zkEVM mainnet beta.
Notably, the network hitch only impacted the zkEVM beta. All other ecosystem components, including Polygon PoS and Polygon CDK were not impacted.
The price of MATIC was in a positive territory over the 24-hour timeframe, up 4.1% at the time of writing. This put MATIC at $1.04.

Crypto trading is on the upward trajectory and traders keen to access opportunities traditionally limited to institutional investors have looked to Telegram trading bots.

AI trading tools, including automated sniping, add to Bitbot’s outlook as a top crypto trading bot. There’s also a revenue-sharing program where BITBOT holders are guaranteed a share of bot’s daily revenue.
Bitbot powers through presale
Polygon (MATIC) traded in the green on Monday as top cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Ethereum looked to bounce to key resistance levels.
BTC and ETH were poised at $67k and $3,450 respectively, with bulls likely to eye $70k and $4k in coming weeks.
While prices could dip amid other market conditions, the overall picture is bullish in the latter stages of the year. Bitbot, which aims to dominate the Telegram bots market, could ride tailwinds in the sector to the moon.
This outlook is likely fueling Bitbot’s presale pace. Currently in stage 7, the project has raised over $1.37 million. The BITBOT price has jumped to $0.0134 and will rise until the final stage 15.
With BITBOT price programmed to increase to $0.02 in the final presale stage, the early bird could be looking at significant returns when the non-custodial bot hits the market.
