Polygon expansion: Acquires Mir ETH scaling protocol for $400M
Polygon, the platform behind the MATIC token, which is currently the 14th biggest cryptocurrency in the market, has acquired Mir Protocol, a platform that uses next-generation zk-rollups to scale Ethereum. The deal has been confirmed after a Dec 9 report and has cost the Network around $400M.
Polygon expands in a big way
Polygon continues to dominate other cryptocurrency-based platforms. Dubbed as Ethereum's most used scaling solution, the acquisition of Mir Protocol will now attract millions of users of Web 3 to the platform. Mir Protocol operates using the zk scaling solution, which is considered the fastest among all the available protocols.As per the report, the deal breaks down the required $400M into two. First, Polygon has to pay 190 million of its native MATIC, which is roughly worth around $429 million at the time of writing. Furthermore, the Ethereum scaling network also had to pay $100 million in USDC.
"We are introducing a recursive proof system that is orders of magnitude faster than anything else and is practical to verify on Ethereum. This is a huge win for the entire industry," said the co-founder of Polygon Network, Mihailo Bjelic.
Scaling solutions
Reports claim that the Polygon Network is building an arsenal of scaling solutions and is looking to take over the entire market. As the majority of altcoins remain bearish, the MATIC token has shown signs of bullish growth. With the acquisition of Mir Protocol, the Network has access to zk scaling technology which easily allows multiple ETH transactions to be verified in a single proof.Mir Protocol has solved the issue with slow zk proofs via the generation of faster recursive proofs. It seems that Polygon's primary focus is on building more and more scaling solutions as recently, the Network also announced a merger with Hermez Network, which will now be called Polygon Hermez.
Furthermore, the development of Polygon Nightfall is also in place, which is a "privacy-focused rollup build in collaboration with EY."

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
