Polymer just hit 1 billion dollars of crosschain volume within 3 months of going live with Prove API.
Here’s a look at our journey so far…and what to expect from us next. 🧵👇
Modern money will be on-chain and agentic
Polymer is excited to integrate x402, the emerging standard for on-chain micropayments, with the Prove API
Opening doors to novel agentic user and developer flows on-chain 🔀

Four years ago, Polymer began to solve the scalability challenges developers face when building across chains. These problems have evolved, and so have we.
We’ve explored different paths, learned from every iteration, and today, we have the tools to do it right and pave a new path for interoperability. This is an inflection point of who we are and where we’re going.
Our new logo and website are a return to first principles, a tribute to why we came here in the first place: to solve real problems, build openly, and empower growth without limits.
To fortify the foundations, we must evolve—together. Let’s keep building a world where apps can scale freely and meaningfully.
The future has more rollups and we need an interop solution tailored for them.
Ethereum is becoming app-centric, not chain-centric. Apps are outgrowing single rollups & need to scale across 100s of rollups to compete with Web2 performance.
Current interop solutions are holding us back.
The Problem -
• Today’s interoperability relies on cross-chain messaging, a solution designed for L1-to-L1 communication.
• It’s slow (~2+ minutes per message), costly (gas fees on multiple chains), and restrictive (developers must modify contracts).
• This approach wasn’t built for rollups, where speed, scalability, and user experience are critical.
The Polymer Breakthrough (Prove API) -
Instead of sending messages, Polymer leverages state-proving to deliver real-time, scalable interoperability across rollups:
• Speed: ~6 seconds.
• Developer flexibility: No rigid APIs or contract modifications.
• Routing: A simple “one-to-all” model eliminates the need for manual connections between rollups.
• Cost: Lower gas consumption with a single call; no contract bloat.
• Extensibility: Seamlessly integrate new rollups in minutes with uniform security.
With Polymer, apps can focus on growth and performance, not managing complex interop. It’s time to leave outdated message passing behind and embrace the next-gen interop Ethereum apps need.

Interop security is about more than just a validity guarantee.
Wrote a long ethresearch post that maps the 5 security properties of a chain/rollup per @sreeramkannan to 3 high level security properties of cross rollup interop.
Validity guarantees are the only security property currently being discussed and innovated upon.
Local ordering guarantees map to liveness, censorship resistance and local reorg resistance.
Global ordering guarantees map to data availability and global reorg resistance.
The post explores each of these security properties in the context of the different interop models in the industry today.

@fekunze@IBCProtocol@cosmos > L1 <> L1 was the only form of interop in 2020/ early 2021 but not anymore
Respectfully, I'd hesitate to call what existed in 2020/2021 as "interop" since it was so centralized.
That's why I appreciate @Polymer_Labs implementing interop that aligns with the true vision of L1s

Hi team. I wrote an essay about my journey opening up to my dad, who has terminal cancer. Would be super appreciative of any feedback/advice (on the essay or life itself). Hope you like.
