Announcing Replacement Transaction Support For Polygon

Written by Blocknative | December 16, 2021

Today we are excited to launch support for replacement transactions — speed ups & cancels — for the Polygon Network. This enhances our initial real-time Polygon support and is immediately available to every ecosystem participant. 

Replacement Transactions on Polygon 

If you are unfamiliar with replacement transactions, here is a quick overview to help you get oriented with speed ups and cancels. 

Speed Up

A replacement transaction was detected with the same tovalue and input parameters as the transaction being replaced. 

Cancel

A replacement transaction was detected in the mempool with different tovalue or input parameters compared to the transaction being replaced. 

How to Access Replacement Transactions on Polygon 

With the Mempool API & SDK and Notify, you can now support replacement transactions inside of your polygon dapp or trading bot. For developers, this helps you to provide end-users with visibility into their real-time transaction status.  For traders, this helps you to track and act on replacement transactions in real-time for addresses that matter to you. 

In the event of a replacement transaction, Blocknative will provide you with the replaceHash so you can seamlessly follow the full end-to-end transaction lifecycle. 

And with Mempool Explorer, you can watch Quickswap on Polygon for speed ups and cancels.
