Polygon is a network that makes Ethereum-style apps faster and cheaper, best known for its Polygon PoS chain, which is popular for payments. Its coin is POL, which replaced the older MATIC token one-for-one starting in September 2024. POL pays fees on Polygon and is staked by validators. Full Polygon fact sheet →
What moves the Polygon price
No one sets the Polygon price. It's the last price at which buyers and sellers traded on exchanges, averaged across many markets. It moves with demand from investors and traders, news and regulation, interest rates and the wider stock market, big holders buying or selling, and leverage being wiped out in fast drops. Short-term moves are close to impossible to predict. See why crypto prices fall and how to read a crypto chart.
What the numbers mean
- Price is the latest traded price in US dollars, averaged across exchanges. The price on your exchange can differ a little, and buying usually costs more than the quoted price because of spreads and fees (see the true cost calculator).
- 24h change compares now with the price exactly 24 hours ago, and 7-day change with a week ago. The chart shows hourly prices over the last 7 days.
- Market cap is price × coins in circulation. It's a snapshot of size, not money invested (market cap explained).
- Volume is how much was traded in the last 24 hours across tracked exchanges.
- All-time high is the highest price ever recorded and how far today's price is from it.

Prices can fall fast and far, and crypto payments usually can't be reversed. Nobody can reliably tell you where the price goes next; be wary of anyone who claims to. Read how to research a crypto and common scams first.
