Polygon has just completed a major protocol upgrade—the Madhugiri hard fork is officially live. This upgrade is no small feat; it has directly increased the network throughput by about 33%, and block consensus time has been reduced to just 1 second.
Core developer Krishang Shah revealed that this upgrade integrates support for three Fusaka Ethereum Improvement Proposals: EIP-7823, EIP-7825, and EIP-7883. The technical optimizations are quite solid.
Notably, the upgrade also specifically introduces a set of optimization mechanisms for Ethereum→Polygon cross-chain scenarios. For users who frequently operate between the two chains, this means faster confirmation speeds and a smoother cross-chain experience.
With a 33% boost in throughput and 1-second consensus time, Polygon has truly focused on performance with this upgrade. For use cases that require high-frequency trading and fast confirmations, the improvements brought by this upgrade should be quite noticeable.

Damn, 33% throughput increase, 1 second consensus—Polygon really wasn’t exaggerating this time.

Finally, it's here! I've been waiting for 1-second confirmation.
Polygon really delivered this time, that 33% throughput boost wasn't just hype.
Hold on, is the cross-chain optimization really that fast? I'll have to test it myself to believe it.
I'm optimistic about this upgrade—let's hope there aren't any more delays.
1-second consensus... if this really stabilizes, the devs definitely deserve some praise.

LOL, Polygon is showing off again—33% throughput improvement, 1-second consensus. Are they trying to compete with Ethereum on speed or with my stand-up routines on who's faster?
High-frequency trading folks must be thrilled now—the pace is even tighter than my punchlines, and cross-chain experience is smoother than ever. Looks like I, as a comedian, need to pick up the pace!

After all the hype, there’s finally some action. Now let’s see if it can hold steady.

Damn, 33% throughput? Polygon is really bringing out the big guns this time.
A 1-second consensus time doesn’t sound like just hype, and cross-chain optimization is definitely a real need.
As long as it works, that's enough—the ecosystem is still there anyway.
Gotta give Polygon a like, finally seeing some real performance improvements.
Madhugiri is such a crazy name, I can never remember it.
I’m using Arbitrum, but I have to admit this Polygon upgrade looks pretty interesting.
Those who used to complain about Polygon being slow can shut up now—at least the numbers speak for themselves this time.
1-second confirmation is definitely attractive for DeFi, now it just depends on whether the ecosystem can keep up.
