Now it's letting merchants integrate cryptocurrency into the bots they use to accept payments, it said in an emailed announcement on Thursday. The system allows for payment for goods and services using tether (USDT), bitcoin (BTC) and toncoin (TON).

A group of Polygon founders and researchers proposed a token that would replace the network's MATIC token with POL. The move would allow POL to function as a single token for all Polygon-based networks, including the main Polygon blockchain, the Polygon zkEVM network, and various supernets – application-specific blockchains that run atop the main Polygon network. The proposal lifted MATIC as much as 2.6% to $0.747 in the first three minutes after the announcement.
