If you hold MATIC on Ethereum, you can seamlessly migrate to POL using the Polygon Portal at 1:1 rate
POL is designed to be hyper productive. This means it's more efficient and can support a wider range of applications. Plus, there's potential for future expansions, like governance and other utility functions.
🔸 Why did $MATIC become $POL?
* Efficiency: Faster transactions, lower fees.
