MATIC is exchanging hands at $2.68 as of writing, a 36% increase from its seven-day low of $1.97. The popular altcoin’s recent collaborations, along with its push to improve its scaling solutions in the form of zero-knowledge (ZK) rollups which bundle and verify hundreds of transactions off-chain, have some analysts predicting that MATIC will rally in 2022. Polygon’s announcement comes on the heels of them creating a $200 million fund with social giant Reddit in order to bring social media and games over to the blockchain.

Polygon has stepped in with a broad range of scaling options and some of the industry’s lowest transaction rates.” “Opera’s non-custodial crypto wallet already supports the Ethereum Web3 API, making interacting with these DApps seamless to the user.Īdoption of Web3 crypto wallets has been handicapped by high gas fees on the Ethereum layer-1. However, MATIC believes their partnership with Opera can solve this problem. Opera, which has had its own built-in crypto wallet since 2018, already supports Ethereum’s Web3 application programming interface but suffers from high gas transaction fees, according to Polygon. Some marquee DApps coming to the Opera browser include automated market maker SushiSwap, stablecoin-focused decentralized exchange Curve, and borrowing and lending protocol Aave, as well as popular land-based blockchain games The Sandbox and Decentraland, and non-fungible token (NFT) marketplaces such as OpenSea. The integration will enable Opera’s users’ in-browser access to over 3,000 dApps on the Polygon network.”

Opera will integrate the Polygon blockchain in their Web3-ready browser and its built-in crypto wallet on Android in the first quarter of 2022. That said, volatility is far from unusual to the crypto world and many developers have learned that riding its ebbs and flows is just part of the experience.“Polygon is coming to the Opera browser in a partnership that can potentially onboard millions of users into Polygon’s ecosystem of decentralized apps. Bencic says this funding will help the company expand its global footprint and build out engineering and business hires in other geographies.Ĭlimbing cryptocurrency prices have historically aligned pretty closely with developer uptake in the blockchain world so there is some concern that bitcoin and Ethereum’s downward-trending price corrections will lead to less stability in the pipeline of new developers embracing blockchain. Tenderly itself is a small company with its team of 14 based in Serbia.

To date, the majority of Tenderly’s customers have been relatively small startup efforts aiming to tap into the exciting world of blockchain-based computing with a particular focus on decentralized finance. ”īencic hopes the company’s product can help developers get their products out more quickly without compromising on usability. “We wanted to make it as easy as possible to observe and extract information from Ethereum and the adjacent networks. It also announced partnerships with Polygon and others. “Tenderly, from its inception, has been a solution to one of our own problems,” Bencic tells TechCrunch. A key feature is the built-in non-custodial wallet that will support blockchains including Ethereum, Bitcoin, Celo and Nervos from the get-go. While the company’s Visual Debugger is already used by “tens of thousands” of Ethereum developers, Tenderly hopes to continue building out its toolset to help more developers build on Ethereum networks without dealing with the headaches and irregularities that they’ve had to. The startup’s aim to date has been ensuring fledgling blockchain developers aren’t left finding out about contract errors when users discover issues and complain, instead allowing users to discover these bugs proactively. The Belgrade startup already raised a $3.3 million seed round earlier this year led by Point Nine Capital.

The latest crypto startup to court the attention of venture capitalists is Tenderly, which builds a developer platform for Ethereum devs to monitor and test the smart contracts that power their decentralized apps. Blockchain infrastructure startups are heating up as industry fervor brings more developers and users to a space that still feels extremely young despite a heavy institutional embrace of the crypto space in 2021.
