Here is the latest from the digital-asset markets: In brief Polygon Labs disclosed it patched a batch of security vulnerabilities through two hard forks—Austin on its Bor client and Kyoto on Heimdall—rolled out privately and validated on testnet before mainnet activation. The fixes closed denial-of-service paths in block processing and a more severe flaw that could have forced costly, coordinated work across the entire validator set via a single crafted transaction.
Polygon’s native token POL was trading around $0. 09983 Sunday, down 2.
This shift continues to shape the digital-asset landscape, with analysts examining its near-term effects.
