      <p>In later phases, POL will enhance the Aggregated Layer, boosting the Polygon network’s functionality and security. The POL migration aims to unify liquidity and state across chains, supporting Polygon’s vision as a top blockchain network. This evolution is designed to provide robust security for Polygon as an interconnected blockchain system.</p>

<p>For current <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/polygon" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MATIC holders</a> on the Polygon PoS chain, no immediate action is required during the migration. However, those holding MATIC on Ethereum, Polygon zkEVM, and centralized exchanges. As well as stakers, delegators, and liquid staking token (LST) holders, may need to take specific steps to adapt to the upgrade.</p>

<p>The introduction of POL is a strategic move to enhance Polygon’s infrastructure, making it more resilient and scalable. As the native gas and staking token, POL will facilitate transactions and staking operations, ensuring seamless and efficient operations within the <a href="https://polygon.technology/polygon-pos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Polygon PoS chain</a>. In the Aggregated Layer, POL’s role will be pivotal in maintaining the interconnectedness and liquidity across different chains, contributing to a unified and cohesive blockchain network.</p>
