Ankr Becomes Implementation Partner for Polygon Supernets

Cointime Official

Ankr is very excited to announce that we've partnered with Polygon Labs, the development and growth team supporting the decentralized Ethereum scaling protocol Polygon, to enhance the building experience for Web3 developers seeking to create their own application-specific blockchains with Polygon Supernets.

Powered by the modular blockchain stack Polygon Edge, Polygon Supernets is EVM-compatible, interoperable, highly performant, and customizable. It gives developers the ability to standup a custom network without the hassle of maintaining blockchain infrastructure. Additionally, Polygon Supernets help developers bootstrap validator sets quickly with professional validator partners from the Polygon PoS mainnet.

Ankr AppChains is now an infrastructure vendor and implementation partner for Polygon Supernets. Ankr offers an end-to-end engineering solution for creating application-specific blockchains, including Polygon Supernets, combining the best of security, throughput, and customizability. The AppChains product enables Web3 developers to build custom blockchains uniquely suited to their applications easily. Further improving the building experience for developers are the premium tools and services that Polygon Supernets provide.

“Polygon Labs couldn’t be more excited for Ankr to be providing world-class tooling for building dedicated blockchains. With Polygon Supernets, enterprises, gaming and entertainment projects can rapidly power up their dedicated app-specific chains that are fine-tuned for best-in-class EVM performance. Polygon Supernets is an ideal opportunity to bring together the world’s leading Web3 providers (like Ankr) to a comprehensive ecosystem that will empower any team to build their own blockchain. Polygon Supernets will help bring the next billion users to Web3.”

– Parth Pathak, General Manager of Polygon Supernets at Polygon Labs

“We are thrilled to connect Ankr’s AppChain Infrastructure with Polygon Supernets to provide developers with the highest quality building experience and streamline Web3 development. With our combined expertise and resources, we will empower developers to build high-quality dApps that will transform the UX of industries like web3 gaming, DeFi, and beyond.”

– Kev Silk, Ankr AppChains Product Manager

Both Ankr and Polygon Labs aim to make it faster, cheaper, and easier to build on Web3. To bring Web3 to the masses, it is critical to remove the complexities of blockchain development while ensuring scalability and app-specific customization. Polygon Supernets enable developers to set up a custom, high-performance blockchain network quickly.

Any smart contract or dApp written for the Ethereum-compatible networks, either in Solidity, Vyper, or other languages, can be deployed to a Polygon Supernet. With Ankr’s AppChains, developers will also have the freedom to choose the programming languages, consensus mechanisms, and development frameworks they want to use.

Web3 developers can build Polygon Supernets to run a specific application, project, or use case with a bridge to the Polygon PoS protocol, maintained by certified partners, and receiving further upgrades from the Polygon Edge open-source software stack. Polygon Supernets are compatible with each other and the Ethereum blockchain by default.

By enabling developers to build their own blockchains on Polygon Edge, Ankr will help solve two of the biggest challenges holding back Web3 adoption — slow transaction speed and high gas fees. With a custom blockchain for each dApp, there is no competition for storage or computation, and scalability can thrive.

  • Vitalik: Ethereum to Complete Major Third Iteration in Next 5 Years, Quantum Resistance and Privacy as Primary Goals

    On July 5, Vitalik Buterin announced that Ethereum researchers finalized the 'Streamlined Ethereum' roadmap during a conference in Berlin. This is not a one-time upgrade but a series of forks over the next 3 to 4 years (starting from 'I-star'), which will mark the third major era of Ethereum, almost replacing all core components. Core changes include: verification shifting from direct execution to recursive STARK; consensus introducing 1-2 rounds of finality for faster and safer transactions; multi-dimensional Gas pricing; and a complete replacement of existing solutions with quantum-resistant cryptography. The most disruptive change is the state model—current dynamic states only expand to about 2TB, while introducing new scalable states like UTXO and circular buffers, with a total scale reaching up to 100TB, suitable for ERC20/NFT/DeFi, potentially reducing transaction fees by over 10 times after the rewrite; complex applications (like Uniswap pools) will retain the old state without mandatory migration. However, the issue of who will store the 100TB state and the associated incentives has become a new focus of research. Privacy upgrades are now a primary design goal, with all new components needing to support quantum-resistant, intermediary-free privacy transactions. Formal verification will be fully implemented, and there is exploration into introducing RISC-V or leanISA as the underlying VM for the protocol, with EVM potentially becoming a feature at the compilation layer in the future. In terms of scalability metrics, Gas limits, Blob capacity, and block times will be increased multiple times over the next 5 years, with the Glasterdam fork set to significantly raise Gas limits first. In the order of forks, H-star (Hegota) will be the last 'pre-streamlined' fork, after which Ethereum will fully enter the streamlined era. Through this complex yet smooth transition, Ethereum is moving towards a quantum-resistant, massively scalable, privacy-first new network while maximizing the protection of existing applications. This cautious disruption over the next five years has officially begun.

  • Solana Achieves $4.84 Billion in Spot Trading Volume for Tokenized Stocks This Quarter

    On July 3, it was reported that Solana broke multiple records in trading, revenue, and trading volume in the second quarter of 2026. In the tokenized stock sector, Solana's spot trading volume reached $4.84 billion this quarter, capturing over 96% market share. This volume far exceeded that of all other blockchains combined, marking the fourth consecutive quarter that Solana has led this sector, solidifying its dominant position. In terms of decentralized application revenue, the total dApp revenue for this quarter was $257 million, maintaining its lead over all Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchains for the ninth consecutive quarter. Despite competitive pressure from peers, the enthusiasm of ecosystem developers and actual user demand remains strong. On-chain trading activity has surged, with daily, weekly, and monthly trading volumes all hitting new highs. The total number of non-voting transactions for the quarter approached 9.8 billion, with the overall network transaction volume rising to 59%, reaching an eleven-month high. The perpetual futures trading scale has seen a significant surge, with nominal trading volume for the quarter reaching $183 billion. GMTrade, Pacifica, and Jupiter were the main sources of trading volume, with GMTrade showing impressive growth in asset locking, cumulative trading volume, and protocol fees. The Phoenix platform also gained market recognition with its new features. Meanwhile, the Solana Foundation has proactively reduced its staking holdings, with the staking scale dropping to 4.92% of the total network staking, aiming to weaken its control over network validation and promote the decentralized and mature development of the validator ecosystem. Overall, even though the market is generally perceived to be at the bottom of a bear cycle, Solana's various innovative businesses and fundamental on-chain data are rising against the trend. If this quarter indeed marks the low point of the current market cycle, the existing performance will lay a solid foundation for long-term growth. The article also briefly mentions developments related to Solana's on-chain governance, the Grass rewards controversy, and future plans of the foundation's executives.

  • Venezuela's Largest Oil Refinery Resumes Operations

    On July 3, three sources reported that Venezuela's largest refinery, the Amuay refinery with a processing capacity of 645,000 barrels per day, has resumed operations after a power outage on Friday. It is currently processing approximately 140,000 barrels per day of crude oil, and the fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCC) has also restarted. Following two earthquakes last week that caused significant casualties, several refineries in Venezuela were affected by power outages. Additionally, sources indicated that the El Palito refinery, with a processing capacity of 146,000 barrels per day, has regained power, but staff have not yet been able to restart the production units.
