Nevertheless, despite these transactions failing to decelerate the MATIC price, the cryptocurrency is trading at $0.87, a significant increase from its previous value.
About the circulation of MATIC tokens, a recent on-chain analysis employing Santiment data reveals a significant surge in usage from November 5th to November 9th.
Throughout this time frame, the price of MATIC increased from $0.69 to $0.85. This increase in utilization, in contrast to the introduction of tokens into circulation, indicated robust market buying activity, thereby preventing a decline in the value of MATIC.
Despite a subsequent decline in circulation, the present quantity of MATIC in circulation on the Polygon network has increased to 119.96 million. In light of the ongoing accumulation and the possibility of circulation levels returning to November 9th, MATIC attaining $1 is the subject of speculation.
