ChatGPT predicts Polygon (MATIC) price for start of 2024

Polygon has been having an interesting year throughout 2023, especially after June and the reveal of the “Polygon 2.0” plan. The rollout of the upgrade also saw significant changes and developments, including the rollout of the new POL token, which is meant to eventually entirely replace MATIC.

This year, Polygon also saw a major uptick when it comes to non-fungible token (NFT) traffic, particularly due to the DraftKings’ Reignmaker NFT collection. Along with the expansion of its ecosystem, Polygon also saw a significant enlargement of its user base, with it even overtaking Ethereum (ETH).

Despite these developments, MATIC has so far failed to fully take off in the most recent crypto market bull run that saw many other cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum, and Solana (SOL), reach heights not seen since the first half of 2022.

With the expansions and struggles in mind, and given that the new year is just around the corner, Finbold decided to consult the artificial intelligence (AI) of OpenAI’s flagship platform – ChatGPT – and find out where MATIC might find itself at the very start of 2024.

ChatGPT predicts the price of Polygon on January 1

When estimating a likely price range for MATIC on New Year’s Day, ChatGPT proved slightly bullish, stating that the cryptocurrency may find itself somewhere between $0.80 and $1.20. When pressed to give a more precise range, the AI opted for between $0.95 and $1.10.

ChatGPT explained that it is mildly bullish due to a combination of factors, including Polygon’s technological developments and greater adoption in the NFT and DeFi sectors. When challenged on this conclusion due to the recent mostly downward trend, the AI pushed back, saying that the developments throughout 2023 offer ample room for recovery.

The platform, however, also agreed to build a stronger bull and a stronger bear case. The bullish scenario assumes that the wider crypto market soon enters another strong rally and that Polygon’s upgrades spark renewed enthusiasm for MATIC. Under these circumstances, ChatGPT states that the range between $1.50 and $2 would be likely.

On the other hand, the bearish scenario assumes an unexpected and adverse regulatory development from the crypto market or a discovery of a critical technical flaw with Polygon and its upgrade efforts. Under these circumstances, the AI sees MATIC falling to between $0.50 and $0.70.

ChatGPT was generally positive toward POL’s potential when asked but refused to make a price range prediction. According to the AI, POL’s success will depend on the overall state of the Polygon ecosystem, and there is simply not enough data to offer anything other than an estimate that would be even more speculative than the educated guesses ChatGPT is able to provide.

MATIC price analysis

While there is still room for surprises in the final 10 days of 2023, MATIC’s performance so far has been rather mixed. The cryptocurrency is slightly in the green in the last 24 hours – 0.77% – and its price is $0.79 at the time of publication.

Looking at the entire year, it appears that most of the excitement and developments pertaining to Polygon have been on the technical side. It experienced a significant rally in the spring before riding a major downtrend and has benefited somewhat from the recent bull run.

Still, MATIC is down 1.04% in the last 52 weeks, 6.70% in the last month, and has also declined in the last 7 days by 7.33%.
