Polygon zkEVM TVL continues to rise

An analysis of the Total Value Locked (TVL) on the Polygon zkEVM has indicated a noticeable increase. At the time of this report, the TVL was over $73 million. This marked an impressive growth of more than 11%, as per data sourced from L2 Beats.

It is important to note that the TVL accounted for less than 1% of the overall market share of Layer 2.

In contrast, the TVL on the mainnet has not exhibited a similar upward trend. AMBCrypto’s examination of TVL data from DefiLlama indicated that it had remained relatively stable. As of the latest available data, the TVL on the mainnet was around $780 million.

An auto-MATIC trend

Even as the conversion to POL was in progress, MATIC remained actively traded at the time of publication. AMBCrypto’s analysis of the daily timeframe chart revealed that MATIC had seen a notable upward price movement over the past few days.

At the time of this update, it was trading at around $0.6, reflecting a modest profit of less than 1%.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) line was on the verge of crossing above 70, indicating potential overbought conditions. Additionally, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) was trending above the zero line.
