Polygon’s PIP-92 governance proposal will raise annualized gross rewards for POL stakers to roughly 7.7% from about 3% starting October 1. The increase will last two months and is funded by approximately 27.33 million POL in priority fees already collected under PIP-85, rather than newly issued tokens. The proposal raises the PoS network’s CHECKPOINT_REWARD from roughly 25,213 POL to 64,500 POL, while validator commissions, proposer bonuses and other standard staking rules remain in place. With about 3.45 billion POL staked, the distribution produces the estimated rate, although individual returns will vary. Polygon also burned roughly 100 million POL on September 24, reducing total supply by about 1%. Rewards are scheduled to return to baseline on December 1, while follow-up proposal PIP-93 seeks to automate future fee distributions without requiring a new governance vote each time.
