Polygon raises POL staking rewards to 8% for two months starting Oct 1 using accumulated fees, no new tokens minted.

Starting October 1, Polygon will increase POL staking rewards to about 7.7% annualized for two months by distributing over 27 million POL from accumulated network fees, more than doubling the usual 3% baseline. This boost comes from a governance-approved proposal (PIP-92) that reallocates existing fees without minting new tokens, ensuring no inflation. The higher rewards end December 1, but a follow-up proposal (PIP-93) aims to automate fee sharing for consistent staking rewards tied to network usage. This temporary increase offers POL holders a competitive yield compared to typical DeFi lending rates, encouraging more staking activity.

Polygon's POL token trades at Rp2.092 on Pluang, down 4.39% in the last day as of Sep 29, 2026 02:53 WIB. The market cap stands at Rp22.27 trillion with a 24-hour volume of Rp4.14 trillion. Despite the recent price drop, sell orders dominate at 82%, while typical holders keep POL for about 75 days.
