Polygon Labs said it has completed a SOC 2 Type 1 review for its Polygon Open Money Stack API and dashboard, covering security trust services criteria. According to ChainCatcher, independent auditor Schellman & Company, LLC found that Polygon had implemented appropriate security controls.

Type 1 reviews assess whether controls are properly designed at a specific point in time, while the ongoing Type 2 review will test how those controls operate in practice over several months. The report said complementary user entity controls are not necessary for Polygon to fulfill its service commitments.

For Robinhood Chain, the wealth-generating effect of memes and high APR can be the first spark to attract traffic and funds, but to keep this spark burning, it ultimately needs real transaction demand and sustainable ecosystem value.
