Polygon has introduced a new fee model, PIP-85, to address the over 60% drop in its native token POL and rising competition from Base and Arbitrum. The proposal suggests reallocating 50% of priority fee revenue to network validators and delegators. Additionally, it plans to shift validator reward distribution from a staking size model to one based on contribution, with 75% of the validator pool distributed according to contribution and 25% based on existing staking weights. The proposal indicates that these changes can be implemented without direct on-chain modifications.
