Polygon Labs has announced the launch of the Polygon zkEVM Launchpad, a phased rollout consisting of three stages. Stage 1, which lasted over 10 months, focused on testing security and uptime, crucial for the Mainnet Beta.

Following its success, Stage 2 is now underway, expected to last two months, with a focus on launching new dApps and providing educational resources. Once Stage 2 concludes, Stage 3 will commence, marking full activation pending successful results from the prior stages.

This final stage will involve significant upgrades to enhance network productivity and throughput, accompanied by the deployment of dApps and promotional campaigns. Additionally, users have the opportunity to earn an OG Polygon Badge by registering within 48 hours of the announcement, alongside other benefits such as portfolio management and staking rewards.

The community's positive response is evident, reflected in the increasing value of MATIC, which is expected to see further growth with the ongoing launchpad rollout.
