Polygon to Permanently Burn 100M POL Tokens After Council Sign-Off

The burn's design—open to any trigger initially, then community-executed quarterly—matters more than the token count, since it sets a repeatable, permissionless deflationary mechanism rather than a one-off event. That shifts attention to how predictable and transparent those quarterly burns prove in practice. The immediate variable is the Polygon Council's sign-off and mainnet deployment; whether the cadence holds and who actually triggers the burns is the open question.
