Polygon’s ’Gigagas’ Roadmap Targets 100K TPS as Mutuum Finance (MUTM) Rides DeFi Scaling Wave

Published: 2025-06-17 18:39:11 |

Polygon has unveiled its ambitious ’Gigagas’ roadmap, aiming to achieve 100,000 transactions per second (TPS) and secure a leading role as a universal layer for global payments and real-world asset tokenization. The first milestone, arriving in early July, promises to boost Polygon’s TPS to 1,000 with 5-second finality, building on the recent token upgrade to POL. These scaling improvements make Polygon more attractive for institutional adoption. Amid Polygon’s upgrades, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is emerging as a significant DeFi protocol. Mutuum offers a decentralized, non-custodial lending platform featuring dynamic interest rates influenced by pool utilization, overcollateralization safeguards, reserve factors, robust vetting for new assets, and bug bounty programs to ensure security. The project has already raised over $10.7 million in its ongoing presale, selling tokens at $0.03 during phase 5 (a 200% rise from phase 1). Analysts suggest MUTM could surge over 2,400% post-listing, with a beta platform launch planned for the token listing day. Both Polygon’s scaling roadmap and Mutuum’s advancements signal greater opportunities for DeFi adoption, improved liquidity, and more robust protocol security. These developments are likely to attract both retail investors and institutions, increasing activity and competition in the DeFi market.

Bullish

Polygon’s scaling roadmap—promising instant finality and higher TPS—historically leads to increased interest and adoption, as seen with similar L2 scaling news (e.g., Arbitrum or Optimism upgrades). The rapid fundraising for Mutuum Finance (MUTM) indicates strong investor confidence, and analyst price forecasts for the token further boost market sentiment. Coupled with security measures and planned product launches, this is likely to drive both speculative and fundamental interest in DeFi tokens linked to Polygon and MUTM, suggesting a bullish near- and long-term impact on both ecosystems.
