Back in September 2024, Polygon was like, “POL is MATIC but with a PhD in utility!” 🧑🎓 It wasn’t just a name change-it was a whole vibe shift. POL could do more than just staking and gas fees; it was like the token version of a Swiss Army knife. But while Polygon was busy flexing its tech muscles, the community was like, “Where’s my MATIC? I miss my MATIC!”
But alas, the cold hand of reason intervenes. Analysts, those sober-minded sentinels of reality, declare the notion as naught but a fantastical dream. “Delusional,” proclaims Zach Humphries, a man who, though he holds XRP dear, refuses to be swayed by the whims of the crowd. For XRP to reach such a pinnacle, it would require a market cap of $6 trillion-a sum so vast, it dwarfs the entire crypto market as it stands today. And with but 35 days remaining in the year, the task is not merely daunting; it is, in the words of our sage, “impossible.” 🧮💔

Ho-Oh, a powerful Fire/Flying-type Legendary Pokémon, holds the distinction of being the first Pokémon from Generation 2 to be unveiled. Fans got their initial glimpse of Ho-Oh in August 1996 through the Japanese magazine CoroCoro, but it wasn’t until the release of Pokémon Gold in 1999 that the legendary bird officially debuted, even appearing on the Game Boy Color game’s cover.
The development of Metroid Prime 4 has been a long and challenging journey, and it’s a prime example of a game that successfully navigated a difficult development process – something that’s becoming more common in the gaming industry. After a major change in development studios and a complete restart, Metroid Prime 4 is finally releasing soon, showcasing its ambitious new vision.
Recently, Destiny 2 has faced criticism, especially after the release of ‘The Edge of Fate,’ which didn’t meet player expectations. This has led to a decrease in the game’s player base, and now the upcoming ‘Renegades’ expansion needs to revitalize it. In a recent interview with Game Rant, Destiny 2‘s creative director Ben Wommack and assistant game director Robbie Stevens discussed the criticism and shared details about what players can anticipate from the *Star Warsthemed ‘Renegades’ when it launches.
After players experienced the new Renegades content in Destiny 2, Bungie shared its plans for improving the game this December. Although a detailed content roadmap won’t be available until 2026, Bungie made it clear they’re listening to player feedback and committed to making Destiny 2 even better.
Bungie hesitated to call Lawless Frontier an ‘extraction’ activity because escaping with rewards isn’t its main focus, though it shares similarities with that style of gameplay. Game Rant recently got an early look at Lawless Frontier during a preview event for the upcoming Destiny 2: Renegades expansion. It’s a tough new challenge that will require teamwork, but if the reward system is anything to go by, it could be a great way for players to earn loot in Destiny 2.
Bungie intentionally kept the feel of Destiny consistent in this new experience, even though it takes a lot of inspiration from Star Wars. It’s actually quite striking how similar the two universes are, particularly the themes of good versus evil. However, players looking for a completely new direction for Destiny might be surprised. This release showcases Bungie’s strengths: a captivating story with memorable characters, and the excellent shooting mechanics the game is known for.
Putting mistakes aside, let’s focus on what this character actually does. The game’s official description says he’s very powerful magically and can gain significant benefits by studying enemies during battle. It’s not entirely clear how this works in practice, but there’s a scene where he scans a group of troublesome enemies, and they become noticeably easier to defeat afterward.
