Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta Resumes Operations After Emergency Fix
馃毃 Polygon Fix Deployed
The Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta has resumed operations after the Emergency Council activated an emergency state to allow the Polygon zkEVM Core Team to apply a necessary fix to the system. This enabled the L1 settlement of the Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta to resume. The emergency state has now been deactivated, and any further updates will be subject to a 10-day timelock before taking effect. A detailed post-mortem on the issue will be provided on the @0xPolygonFdn forum early next week. This incident only impacted the Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta and did not affect Polygon PoS, Polygon CDK, or any chain deployed using Polygon CDK.
Polygon zkEVM Mainnnet Beta faced an issue with its sequencer due to an L1 reorg. We are working on fully resolving the issue and will follow up with a detailed post-mortem. This only impacts Polygon zkEVM (which is the only rollup) and does not impact Polygon PoS, Polygon CDK,

Morpho and Gelato Launch Seamless DeFi Lending on Polygon
Morpho has partnered with Gelato to launch a new crypto-backed lending service on Polygon. The integration offers a frictionless borrowing experience with several key features: - No custody requirements - No transaction signing - Zero gas fees - No credit checks needed The service targets exchanges, wallets, custodians, and apps looking to embed lending functionality. Implementation takes hours rather than months using Gelato's Smart Wallet SDK, which eliminates common Web3 friction points like wallet extensions and seed phrases.

Agglayer v0.3 Launches with Pessimistic Proofs
Agglayer has released version 0.3, building on their successful v0.2 testnet launch. The protocol introduces **pessimistic proofs** - a groundbreaking implementation for unifying EVM chains. Key features: - First-ever pessimistic proof system for cross-chain communication - Cryptographic safety guarantees for cross-chain balances - Secure message passing between different blockchain stacks The project has progressed from devnet through testnet, reaching this significant mainnet milestone. Development can be tracked at [Agglayer GitHub](https://github.com/AggLayer).
Agglayer v0.3 Upgrade Enables Non-CDK Chain Integration
Agglayer announces v0.3 upgrade, marking a significant expansion in cross-chain compatibility. The update will enable non-CDK chains to join the network, with Polygon PoS integration planned for Q3. Key improvements: - Enhanced pessimistic proof security - New chain-specific execution proof verification - Sub-10 second interoperability target - Expanded balance verification system The upgrade represents a crucial step toward chain-agnostic infrastructure, focusing on secure and rapid cross-chain communication. This development builds on February's pessimistic proof implementation, further strengthening the protocol's security framework.
