Polymarket officially announces a major upgrade, reconstructing the matching engine and launching a native stablecoin
The on-chain prediction market platform Polymarket announced that it will conduct "the largest infrastructure upgrade since its launch" in the next 2-3 weeks, including a complete reconstruction of the trading engine and the launch of the native stablecoin Polymarket USD.
This upgrade will introduce a brand new CTF Exchange V2 smart contract system, optimizing matching logic and order structure, improving matching efficiency, and reducing gas costs. At the same time, the platform will upgrade the Central Limit Order Book (CLOB), adopting a hybrid model of off-chain order matching + on-chain settlement.
At the asset level, Polymarket will launch the native stablecoin Polymarket USD, pegged 1:1 to USDC, to replace the previous cross-chain version USDC.e on Polygon, enhancing asset security and consistency. In addition, the platform will support the EIP-1271 standard, allowing multi-signature wallets (such as Safe) to participate directly in trading, further expanding use cases for institutions and advanced users.
Polymarket stated that the existing order book will be cleared during the upgrade, and the specific maintenance time will be announced one week in advance. This upgrade comes amid intensified competition in the prediction market, as the platform accelerates performance and user experience improvements.
