Payments happen on Polygon
Don’t call it a flippening yet
But Polygon just opened November ahead of Solana in USDC wallet activity.
Real money might finally be changing chains.
> October data:
- Solana: 3.92M active USDC wallets
- Polygon: 3.01M
- Base: 2.39M
- Ethereum: 1.44M
> November 1 snapshot:
- Polygon: 294K
- Solana: 278K
- Base: 217K
- Ethereum: 93K
It’s just the first 24 hours but it’s the first time Polygon has started a month ahead of Solana in stablecoin users.
Maybe this is the beginning of a new kind of flippening:
- Payments <> Performance.
- Real users <> traders.
- Governments <> fintech <> memecoins & volume.
Polygon’s been onboarding India’s local governments, fintech rails, and Circle’s payment partners.
If that momentum continues, the "DeFi chain vs payment chain" narrative gets very real.
