Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution Polygon is set to become an officially recognized and regulated payments platform in the United States following its acquisitions of Coinme and Sequence.

According to an announcement on X, the move empowers Polygon with regulated money movement in 48 of the 50 U.S. states, fiat on- and off-ramps, and 50,000 fiat-to-crypto locations nationwide.
