The Polygon PoS network has activated the Madhugiri Hardfork at block 80,084,800 around 10:00 UTC, marking another major step in the chain’s aggressive scaling roadmap. The upgrade arrives months after the Bhilai milestone, which helped the network break 1,000+ transactions per second, and now pushes throughput well beyond that threshold. The next leap toward an institutional-grade, global money network is here.
