Polygon’s transition from MATIC to POL on September 4th, 2024, marks a significant shift in the network’s structure. This aims to establish POL as the essential fuel<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/polygons-agglayer-introduces-bridgeandcall-for-seamless-cross-chain-transactions/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> driving Polygon’s expansion</a> as an aggregated network of blockchains. It also aims to improve the security, size, and efficiency of the network so that Polygon can keep growing in the blockchain environment.

 The upgrade from MATIC to POL on Sept. 4th marks a new era for Polygon, 
 with POL as the self-sustaining fuel that powers Polygon’s growth and development as an aggregated network of blockchains.

The Pol token is at the heart of Polygon’s ability to protect its network’s integrity and security. A significant part of POL emissions is used to incentivize validators, which are essential to the network’s functioning. In addition,&nbsp; These rewards act as an ongoing motivation for the validators to stay active and involved in network security. 
Through the POL, Polygon’s validators are incentivized to contribute to the network’s growth while ensuring its security. This model not only improves the network’s confidence but also helps it scale as the number of transactions increases with the adoption of Polygon.&nbsp;

In addition to protecting the network, POL is used to<a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/polygon-soars-amid-ethereum-etf-boom-with-new-crypto-scaling-solutions-find-best-altcoins-to-buy-in-2024/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> fund development,</a> research, and ecosystem initiatives through the Community Treasury. This treasury is critical for fostering innovation within the Polygon ecosystem.&nbsp; 
Some of the POL emissions are channeled to this fund, which enhances its sustainability and ability to adapt to new challenges. In this way, Polygon guarantees that it continues to be a leading company in the field of blockchain, a context in which innovations can be freely applied.&nbsp; 
The Community Grants Program, which is in its first year, is an example of this commitment to development and change. The program is expected to allocate 100 million POL per year and dispense 1 billion POL in a decade to the projects that support the Polygon and Ethereum ecosystems. Additionally, this initiative aims to enable developers and projects that can bolster the Polygon network and thus foster a healthy community.&nbsp; 
<h3 id="strong-analyst-predicts-substantial-price-increase-for-matic-token-strong">Analyst Predicts Substantial Price Increase for MATIC Token</h3> 
Crypto analyst Cryptorphic recently shared a bold forecast for MATIC on X, predicting a potential <a href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/polygon-matic-sees-significant-growth-in-q2-daily-active-addresses-up-47-6/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">600%-plus surge</a> in the token’s value. His forecast comes after MATIC rebounded from a key support area that he has drawn on the chart as part of a bullish triangle. As per Cryptorphic, this pattern, if sustained, could mean a lot of upside for the token, with a target price of $2.923.

Cryptorphic emphasized the role of the support level from $0. 316 to $0. 387, which was tested by MATIC after a crucial 30% plunge. He further stressed that sustaining this support is important for the token’s future, stating that a breakdown of this level may lead to more losses.&nbsp; 
Another analyst, Javon Marks, was<a href="https://x.com/JavonTM1/status/1821672390369407196" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> also optimistic</a> about the future of MATIC and concurred with Cryptorrhic’s view. Marks predicted that the token could possibly rise and touch a new all-time high of above $3, which will be a rise of more than 558%. He referred to Polygon’s past performance, which saw the token surge by 29,000% in the last cycle, as an example of what the token could do again. At press time, MATIC is trading at $0.418, reflecting a 0.12% increase over the past 24 hours.
