What you need to know

What POL represents

POL (ex-MATIC) (POL) is available in network-specific native or token forms. POL is the Polygon ecosystem token used for Polygon PoS gas and staking functions. Legacy MATIC labels and POL contracts on other networks require explicit representation checks.

Native POL origin

POL is recorded as native on Polygon. Native status describes the ledger balance and gas behavior on that network, not every token carrying the ticker.

POL forms away from the origin

Contract forms are recorded on Ethereum, Polygon zkEVM, Arbitrum. Each form needs its own address, wallet, and network check.

POL network-by-network inventory

Ethereum (contract), Polygon zkEVM (contract), Arbitrum (contract), Polygon (native)

POL recorded token precision

The contract representations currently share one recorded decimal format, but contract identity and network still require independent verification.

Receiving POL without a network mismatch

Confirm the POL network, contract or native label, and receiving address before using a route. Do not identify POL solely by ticker; verify the asset and network representation. Native POL and token representations on other networks are not interchangeable.

Routes arriving as POL

ARB → POL, AVAX → POL, BNB → POL, BTC → POL, DAI → POL, DOGE → POL, ETH → POL, HYPE → POL, LINK → POL, OP → POL

Routes spending POL

POL → ARB, POL → AVAX, POL → BNB, POL → BTC, POL → DAI, POL → DOGE, POL → ETH, POL → HYPE, POL → LINK, POL → OP

POL privacy and wallet linking

Approvals, token transfers, wallet reuse, amounts, timing, and later consolidation can remain visible. Private Route availability and identity requirements must be checked separately.

POL (ex-MATIC) (POL) FAQs

Where is POL a native balance?

POL is recorded as native on Polygon. Other listed forms can be contract or provider-mapped representations.

Does native POL use the same ledger everywhere?

No. Native status belongs to the recorded origin network; another chain's POL-labelled token maintains separate balances and transaction history.

Which receiving networks are recorded for POL?

Ethereum, Polygon zkEVM, Arbitrum, Polygon

Can I use a live POL route now?

Sasquatch currently lists routes for POL (ex-MATIC). Exact availability still depends on the selected networks and live quote.

What is the safest POL receiving check?

Confirm the POL network, contract or native label, and receiving address before using a route. Do not identify POL solely by ticker; verify the asset and network representation.
