In 2021, Polygon powered key Web3 projects in its ecosystem. Uniswap and Aave launched in the Polygon ecosystem. With the rising utility and on-chain activity, native token MATIC’s price exploded. 

Quickswap, one of the largest decentralized exchanges on the Polygon network witnessed a spike in active users, exceeding SushiSwap. This implies further adoption of MATIC by traders and investors.
