Sandeep, CEO of the Polygon Foundation, posted on the X platform stating that the fees generated by the Polygon chain are currently in the S-curve phase. In the past 3 to 4 days, 1 million POL per day has been burned 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 have been staked, with stakers and validators collectively receiving about 1.5% POL rewards. Sandeep believes that 2026 will be the year of POL's revival.
