$POL is down around 5% today after the prank announcement they pulled up with post-abstract L2 shutdown.
The timing really did them no favors š
āNot a shutdown announcementā probably sounded funny when they posted it, but after Abstract just announced its shutdown, the joke landed very differently.
Polygon says it was mocking the constant āPolygon is deadā comments, but when people are already watching their bags bleed, making a joke about another shutdown is bound to rub some people the wrong way.
People now take āweāre not shutting downā seriouslyā¦ while a large percentage of holders were not happy with the prank, a small percentage of holders probably didnāt read the content and assumed it was indeed a shutdown and sold their bagsā¦ what a day!
