The Polygon POL $0.25 24h volatility: 1.4% Market cap: $2.64 B Vol. 24h: $106.17 M network is securing a significant position in the rapidly growing tokenization space, now holding over $1.13 billion in total value locked (TVL) from Real World Assets (RWAs). This development comes as the network continues to evolve, recently deploying its major “Rio” upgrade on the Amoy testnet to enhance future scaling capabilities. This information comes from a new joint report on the state of the RWA market published on Sept. 17 by blockchain analytics firm Dune and data platform RWA.xyz. The focus on RWAs is intensifying across the industry, coinciding with events like the ongoing Real-World Asset Summit in New York. Sandeep Nailwal, CEO of the Polygon Foundation, highlighted the findings via a post on X, noting that the TVL is spread across 269 assets and 2,900 holders on the Polygon PoS chain.

The post Team Launches AI Tools to Boost KYC and Mainnet Migration for Investors appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Pi Network team has announced the implementation of upgrades to simplify verification and increase the pace of its Mainnet migration. This comes before the token unlock happening this December. Pi Network Integrates AI Tools to Boost KYC Process In a recent blog post, the Pi team said it has improved its KYC process with the same AI technology as Fast Track KYC. This will cut the number of applications waiting for human review by 50%. As a result, more Pioneers will be able to reach Mainnet eligibility sooner. Fast Track KYC was first introduced in September to help new and non-users set up a Mainnet wallet. This was in an effort to reduce the long wait times caused by the previous rule. The old rule required completing 30 mining sessions before qualifying for verification. Fast Track cannot enable migration on its own. However, it is now fully part of the Standard KYC process which allows access to Mainnet. This comes at a time when the network is set for another unlock in December. About 190 million tokens will unlock worth approximately $43 million at current estimates.  These updates will help more Pioneers finish their migration faster especially when there are fewer validators available. This integration allows Pi’s validation resources to serve as a platform utility. In the future, applications that need identity verification or human-verified participation can use this system. Team Releases Validator Rewards Update The Pi Network team provided an update about validator rewards. They expect to distribute the first rewards by the end of Q1 2026. This delay happened because they needed to analyze a large amount of data collected since 2021. Currently, 17.5 million users have completed the KYC process, and 15.7 million users have moved to the Mainnet. However, there are around 3 million users…

The post Taiko Makes Chainlink Data Streams Its Official Oracle appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes Taiko has officially integrated Chainlink Data Streams for its Layer 2 network. The integration provides developers with high-speed market data to build advanced DeFi applications. The move aims to improve security and attract institutional adoption by using Chainlink’s established infrastructure. Taiko, an Ethereum-based ETH $4 514 24h volatility: 0.4% Market cap: $545.57 B Vol. 24h: $28.23 B Layer 2 rollup, has announced the integration of Chainlink LINK $23.26 24h volatility: 1.7% Market cap: $15.75 B Vol. 24h: $787.15 M Data Streams. The development comes as the underlying Ethereum network continues to see significant on-chain activity, including large sales from ETH whales. The partnership establishes Chainlink as the official oracle infrastructure for the network. It is designed to provide developers on the Taiko platform with reliable and high-speed market data, essential for building a wide range of decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, from complex derivatives platforms to more niche projects involving unique token governance models. According to the project’s official announcement on Sept. 17, the integration enables the creation of more advanced on-chain products that require high-quality, tamper-proof data to function securely. Taiko operates as a “based rollup,” which means it leverages Ethereum validators for transaction sequencing for strong decentralization. Boosting DeFi and Institutional Interest Oracles are fundamental services in the blockchain industry. They act as secure bridges that feed external, off-chain information to on-chain smart contracts. DeFi protocols, in particular, rely on oracles for accurate, real-time price feeds. Taiko leadership stated that using Chainlink’s infrastructure aligns with its goals. The team hopes the partnership will help attract institutional crypto investment and support the development of real-world applications, a goal that aligns with Chainlink’s broader mission to bring global data on-chain. Integrating real-world economic information is part of a broader industry trend. Just last week, Chainlink partnered with the Sei…
