[Polygon Launches Madhugiri Hard Fork, Throughput Increased by 33%] According to Golden Finance, Polygon has officially activated its latest network upgrade — the Madhugiri hard fork, aimed at accelerating on-chain processing efficiency through performance optimization. This upgrade reduces block time delay from 2 seconds to 1 second, enabling faster transaction confirmation and is expected to increase overall throughput by approximately 33%. Madhugiri integrates several optimization measures previously developed for Ethereum's Fusaka upgrade, including enhancements to gas measurement methods and execution processes, allowing the network to better handle higher-intensity computational loads. Additionally, the hard fork introduces a brand-new transaction type to further optimize the cross-chain interaction structure between Polygon and Ethereum.
