it functions as the native gas token and staking asset used to secure the network, participate in governance, and pay transaction fees across the blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4) By staking their POL tokens, holders help validate transactions and secure the network, earning rewards in return, while validators and delegators contribute to overall decentralization and ecosystem health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5) Beyond securing the network and facilitating transactions, the POL token also incentivises participation in governance and ecosystem activities, supporting long-term engagement and growth across the Polygon platform.<\/p>\n\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"lazyblock-custom-accordion-2vIzsK align wow animate__fadeInUp lend-and-get-interest-estimates-accordion wp-block-lazyblock-custom-accordion\"><div class=\"faq-section\">\r\n    <div class=\"container container--medium\">\r\n        <div class=\"custom-heading\">\r\n            <h2><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <div id=\"accordion\" class=\"accordion-section\">\r\n                            <div class=\"accordion-row\">\r\n                        <div class=\"acc-title\">\r\n                            <h6><span class=\"acc-number\">01<\/span>\r\n                            What is Polygon and how does it work?<\/h6>\r\n                        <\/div>\r\n                        <div class=\"acc-content\"><p>Polygon is a Layer-2 scaling and interoperability platform built for Ethereum that delivers faster transactions and much lower fees while leveraging Ethereum\u2019s security, and it is developed by Polygon. Originally launched as the Matic Network and rebranded to Polygon, its native token MATIC transitioned toward the newer POL token as part of an ecosystem upgrade, reflecting its growth and evolving utility. The network uses Proof-of-Stake sidechains and other scaling solutions to process transactions off the congested Ethereum mainnet and periodically settle results on Ethereum, making it popular across DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and enterprise use cases. As interest in the project continues, many users researching on Polygon look to\u00a0participate in its ecosystem and capture potential upside.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"491\" data-end=\"538\">\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3 data-start=\"401\" data-end=\"444\">\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3 data-start=\"408\" data-end=\"451\">\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"226\" data-end=\"424\">\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                                <div class=\"accordion-row\">\r\n                        <div class=\"acc-title\">\r\n                            <h6><span class=\"acc-number\">02<\/span>\r\n                            What is the minimum amount required to buy Polygon on ZebPay?<\/h6>\r\n                        <\/div>\r\n                        <div class=\"acc-content\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The minimum amount required to buy Polygon on ZebPay is INR 100.
