Polygonscan data showed recent Polygon blocks being produced in 1.75 seconds as the network expands infrastructure tied to stablecoin payments and institutional settlement tools.
Polygon’s average block time has been reduced to 1.75 seconds, with Polygonscan data showing recent blocks being produced at that pace. The network previously said the shorter block interval lowers average block generation time by 250 milliseconds, theoretically lifts throughput by about 14%, and enables more than 3,200 transactions per second. The latest update also links the performance change to Polygon’s broader push to expand infrastructure around stablecoin payments and institutional settlement tools.
