Polygon Foundation CEO: Geopolitical tensions highlight the vulnerabilities of traditional cross-border payments

Cointime reported that on March 30, Polygon Foundation CEO Sandeep Nailwal tweeted that traditional settlement methods still require intermediaries and channels. Once tensions arise, these links can become blocked, causing billions of funds to stagnate. In contrast, stablecoins operating on public chains can complete settlements within seconds, regardless of the situation. Polygon has completed 532 million transactions this month alone, with no downtime during this period. On-chain payments are unaffected by intergovernmental situations; they can operate normally.
