A wise man once said, “Before you save the world, make sure your own house is in order.”
Following a chat with CNBC at this year’s World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting, Mihailo Bjelic, the co-founder of Polygon, tweeted that every entity from banks, enterprises, media companies, and non-governmental organizations is aware of Polygon and is looking to work with it.
