Polygon Reaches 100M Gas Limit and 2,380+ TPS to Support Polymarket Demand
Polygon Reaches 100M Gas Limit and 2,380+ TPS to Support Polymarket Demand
🚀 Polygon hits 100M gas
Polygon has increased its gas limit to 100 million with throughput reaching 2,380+ transactions per second (TPS). The network states this represents 10% of its "gigagas" speed target.
Key milestones:
- Gas limit progression: 65M → 80M → 90M → 100M over recent weeks
- TPS increased from 1,900+ to 2,380+
- Network capacity expanded by 38% in a matter of weeks
- Three upgrades completed with zero downtime
The scaling efforts are driven by Polymarket's 5-minute prediction markets, which require high throughput. Polygon has positioned itself as the primary network capable of handling this demand while maintaining payment-grade performance.
JUST IN: Gas limit is now 100 MILLION and TPS pushing 2,380+ Only Polygon can handle the load of @Polymarket 5min markets 10% of gigagas speed has officially been achieved.
We lied. Gas limit isn't 80M. It's now at 90M, and throughput is pushing 2,100+ TPS. That’s ~38% more network capacity in a matter of weeks. Polygon is scaling in real time to meet more demand, delivering payment-grade performance.

ALL TIME HIGH DEMAND. As Polygon surges to #1 in stablecoin volume, we've increased network capacity over the past two weeks to support demand. • gas limit increase from 65M to 80M (23%+) • throughput increase to 1,900+ TPS • three upgrades + zero downtime We're prepared to
Polygon Emerges as Leading Infrastructure for Autonomous Agent Development
Polygon is positioning itself as the primary blockchain infrastructure for autonomous agents, leveraging two key technical advantages: - **Fast, low-cost settlement** enables efficient transaction processing - **ERC-8004 standard** provides portable, verifiable reputation systems for agents This combination has attracted developers building autonomous workflows, particularly for applications on Polymarket. The platform has already established itself as the leading chain for x402 payments, with agents actively managing real-money transactions in production environments. The infrastructure supports self-sustaining agents that can operate independently, tapping into various opportunities across the ecosystem.
🎬 Oscars Betting
Polymarket has crossed $15M in trading volume on a single Oscars category, marking its evolution from prediction market to cultural infrastructure. The platform runs on Polygon's blockchain, which handles the technical demands as Polymarket scales. Founded by Shayne Coplan in 2020, the platform hit its first $100M trading month in June 2024. Polygon PoS secures the platform's scalability and will soon connect to the AggLayer to unify liquidity across the ecosystem.
