Polygon co-founder Mihailo Bjelic steps down from foundation board

Polygon co-founder Mihailo Bjelic has announced his departure from the board of the Polygon Foundation and plans to phase out his role at Polygon Labs. In a post on X, Bjelic cited diverging visions as the reason behind his decision. “As projects evolve and mature, it is natural for visions to evolve, and sometimes diverge,” he wrote. “With this in mind, I can no longer contribute to Polygon to the best of my abilities.” Despite stepping back, Bjelic expressed continued confidence in the project's leadership and pledged his ongoing support from the sidelines.
