Polygon Co-Founder Says Another 25 Million POL Will Be Burned as Network Targets 1 Millisecond Confirmations

Polygon co-founder Sandeep said POL, formerly known as MATIC, remains one of the market’s most overlooked projects, while outlining a fresh round of token burns and several network upgrades. According to his post, the POL community has recently accumulated onchain revenue and permanently burned 100 million POL, or about 1% of the total supply. He added that another roughly 25 million POL is still being accumulated and is also set to be burned. Sandeep also pointed to product and infrastructure progress on the network. He said Polymarket has launched perpetual contracts on Polygon, and that recent upgrades are pushing Polygon PoS toward a more advanced blockchain architecture. In his description, the network is expected to reach 1 millisecond confirmation times in the future through block streaming. He also said OMS will soon add capacity for about 1 million extra transactions per day on Polygon. The remarks were published in an Odaily newsflash and centered on token supply reduction, performance upgrades, and growing application activity on the network.

Sandeep says POL community has burned 100 million tokens, with another 25 million planned

Polygon co-founder Sandeep said in a post on X that the POL community has cumulatively and permanently burned 100 million POL from on-chain revenue, equal to about 1% of the token’s total supply. He added that roughly 25 million more POL will be burned later. In the same post, Sandeep described POL, formerly MATIC, as "the most undervalued and overlooked project." He also outlined several developments tied to the Polygon ecosystem. According to his statement, Polymarket has launched perpetual contracts on Polygon. He said Polygon PoS is moving toward a more advanced blockchain following recent upgrades and may eventually reach 1 millisecond confirmation times through block streaming. He also said OMS is close to adding around 1 million transactions of daily processing capacity to Polygon. The remarks were cited by ChainCatcher.

Robinhood Chain Leads Ethereum Ecosystem With $8.26M Weekly Revenue

According to growthepie data cited in a PANews report on Sept. 2, Robinhood Chain generated $8.26 million in revenue during the past seven days, the largest weekly figure among Ethereum-ecosystem chains. Ethereum mainnet ranked second with $2.48 million, Base Chain reached $840,040, and Polygon PoS recorded $535,760 over the same window. Robinhood Chain's revenue rose 1,653% period-over-period. The latest data also shows that the chain contributed the majority of the Ethereum ecosystem's total revenue during the week, keeping it at the top of the weekly revenue ranking. The other disclosed networks in the published portion of the ranking trailed by a wide margin; the combined total for Ethereum mainnet, Base Chain and Polygon PoS was about $3.86 million, still less than half of Robinhood Chain's weekly total. PANews published the figures in its market analysis section and noted that the content is provided for market information only and does not constitute investment advice.

Polygon weighs staking and tokenomics overhaul to route priority fees to POL stakers

Polygon is preparing a community-facing proposal to reshape staking and tokenomics on Polygon PoS, according to co-founder Sandeep Nailwal. He said the effort comes in response to community calls and follows a year in which Polygon posted 10x revenue growth, delivered 5k TPS, and reduced block time by 25%, with work continuing toward sub-one-second block times. In Nailwal’s framing, the next step is to give stakers a larger share of network economics. The proposal would introduce L1-like native staking on Polygon PoS that can run in parallel with Ethereum staking. It would also direct transaction priority fees to POL stakers, building on the already approved PIP-85 and, in Nailwal’s words, making implementation cleaner through native staking. Expected staking yield would move closer to doubling and would be backed by real network fees rather than inflation. The plan also contemplates extra incentives for staked POL, such as gas fee discounts, while keeping sPOL liquid and usable across DeFi. Polygon Labs is set to write the code and submit the proposal to the community forum for review.

Quickswap picks Orbs as default perpetuals infrastructure after governance vote

Quickswap has adopted Orbs Perpetual Hub Ultra 2.0 as the default infrastructure for all of its supported onchain perpetual trading, following a community governance vote. The proposal received backing from 81.8% of QUICK token holders, according to Odaily. The move will replace Quickswap’s previous Falkor deployment on Polygon PoS, which had been supported by Orderly. It also extends Quickswap’s Orbs-based perpetuals platform that is set to launch on Base by the end of 2025. Separately, Orbs said that more than 1.12 billion ORBS are currently staked across its decentralized Layer 3 network. The decision marks a direct infrastructure change for Quickswap’s perpetuals setup across the chains it supports.
