Prediction market platform Polymarket confirmed that a recent Polygon network disruption caused temporary issues, but these have since been resolved with full restoration of the site and related functions.

The outage stemmed from a Polygon PoS network problem affecting RPC nodes, though the blockchain continued producing blocks without full downtime.

“The Polygon blockchain was down and affected trades, data providers, deposits, withdrawals, etc,” said a member of the Polymarket team in the platform’s Discord channel.

The event drew focus on the vulnerabilities in external network dependencies, prompting speculation that Polymarket may prioritize its own custom layer 2 for better reliability.
