POL Token Details

The most significant events in Polygon's price history: the Ethereum scaling narrative of 2021 drove the initial surge; the LUNA/UST collapse in May 2022 triggered the crypto bear market; the FTX bankruptcy in November 2022 accelerated the downturn; the Bitcoin ETF approval in January 2024 sparked the 2024 rally; and aggressive Fed rate hikes and macro uncertainty drove the 2025–2026 decline. Each event provides context for understanding future price movements.
