How to stake $POL and secure the @0xpolygon ecosystem! 🔥 Polygon is evolving fast. With Agglayer, gigagas performance, and hyperproductive token design, staking $POL is now central to securing the future of multichain Ethereum. Here’s how to stake $POL and why it matters: 🟣 Step 1: Understand $POL ’s Role POL is a hyperproductive token designed to: • Secure Polygon and @Agglayer through staking • Align incentives between validators, users, and builders • Qualify stakers for rewards and ecosystem airdrops By staking POL, you help validate checkpoints, power modular Ethereum scaling, and become eligible for programs like Agglayer’s Breakout Airdrops. 🟣 Step 2: What You Need to Get Started Before staking, make sure you have: • POL on Ethereum Mainnet • ETH in your wallet for gas fees • An EVM-compatible wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Rabby) • Access to the Polygon Staking Hub Note: POL staking happens on Ethereum due to Polygon’s dual-client design. 🟣 Step 3: Bridge POL to Ethereum (if needed) If your $POL is on the Polygon PoS chain: • Go to Polygon Portal • Connect your wallet • Select POL, and bridge it to Ethereum ⚠ Bridging may take time and will require ETH for gas. Once complete, your POL will be ready for staking. 🟣 Step 4: Connect to the Polygon Staking Hub Head to • Connect your wallet • Browse over 100 active validators • To research validator performance: Step 5: Delegate Your POL Choose a validator • Click “Delegate” • Enter how much POL to stake • Confirm the transaction There’s no minimum amount. Rewards begin accruing right away and are visible under My Account. 🟣 Step 6: Track Rewards and Airdrops ✅ Staking Rewards: Earn a share of validator earnings over time. ✅ Airdrop Eligibility: Get access to exclusive ecosystem rewards like: • Katana – DeFi chain backed by Polygon & GSR • Miden and Privado – expected to follow soon Rewards are automatically recognized via your staked POL. So why stake your $POL now? @0xpolygon 2025 roadmap is massive: • Agglayer unifies L2s under a shared UX • 100k TPS and instant finality via gigagas upgrades • POL staking anchors the modular scaling vision Staking is how you participate in securing this infrastructure, and how you earn while doing it. Polygon is entering its most pivotal phase yet. And @sandeepnailwal and the team is just getting started! Study @0xPolygon DYOR

An EASY WIN just dropped on @foresightnow 🤔 Will Katana exceed Berachain's DeFi TVL by end of August? - Comparing the stats on @DefiLlama, there's just a $60M gap between @katana vs Berachain - Katana is building deep liquidity via high yields in core apps, while Bera has a unique governance structure that feeds the proof of liquidity flywheel My Prediction: YES - Berachain TVL down 90% from $3.3B ATH - Berachain earning mechanics are complex - Earning on Katana is as simple as depositing into the native app managed by Yearn - Katana is a new chain that's still onboarding new defi partners who will add to TVL + set up fresh LPs on Sushi - Katana has high yields on stablecoins well above 40% APY - Katana has the highest yields on bluechips like BTC, ETH, SOL, POL - Katana has native liquidity support from LBTC, JitoSOL, weETH & @turtledotxyz - Every transaction adds to Chain-owned Liquidity as 100% of net sequencer fees go to CoL - KAT token could launch at $1B FDV - need I go on? 🫵 Do you think Katana can close the DeFi TVL gap?
