Polygon Foundation CEO: 2026 Will Be the Year of POL's Revival

Odaily News Sandeep, CEO of the Polygon Foundation, stated on the X platform that the fees generated by the Polygon chain are currently in an S-curve phase. Over the past 3 to 4 days, 1 million POL tokens have been burned daily as base fees. If this trend continues throughout the year, 3.5% of the total POL supply will be burned, giving POL a significant deflationary effect. Currently, 3.6 billion POL tokens have been staked, with stakers and validators collectively receiving approximately 1.5% in POL rewards. Sandeep believes 2026 will be the year of POL's revival.
