✨️✨️Activist investor pushes Polygon tokenomics overhaul amid $POL price slump⚡️⚡️

⚡️⚡️Activist investor calls for Polygon to scrap 2% inflation and launch buybacks to rescue POL’s price and restore investor confidence.♨️

🔥🔥A new proposal to overhaul Polygon’s tokenomics is gaining momentum on the project’s governance forum and across social media, as investors voice frustration over POL’s steep underperformance compared to the broader crypto market.⚡️⚡️

⚡️⚡️The proposal, authored by activist token investor Venturefounder, calls for major revisions to Poilygon’s 🥇🥇

$POL


🔥🔥 supply model, including the elimination of its ⚡️2% annual inflation rate and the introduction of a treasury-funded buyback or burn program to reduce ongoing sell pressure✨️✨️.

♨️♨️“These changes are intended to align the supply dynamics of POL with its current technological and strategic reality, reinforce investor confidence, and prevent further token devaluation and network stagnation,” Venturefounder wrote in the forum post.✨️✨️

🔥🔥🔥Under the current model, Polygon’s 2% annual inflation adds roughly 200 million new POL tokens to the market each year — a factor the author argues has created persistent downward pressure on price. The proposal suggests either moving to a 0% inflation target to establish a fixed supply or adopting a tapering schedule, reducing inflation by 0.5% per quarter until it reaches zero.♨️♨️

Here are three important levels worth watching closely.

$ZEC TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: STRONG BULLISH MOMENTUM ABOVE $160 — NEXT TARGETS $175 AND $190

Zcash ($ZEC


) has shown impressive strength in recent sessions, surging over 25% in the last 24 hours to reach $160.66, up from a daily low of $128.20. The rally was supported by a significant trading volume of over 145M USDT, indicating strong market participation and renewed interest in proof-of-work (PoW) assets.

On the technical side, ZEC has broken through a key resistance zone around $150, turning it into immediate support. The next resistance levels lie around $175, followed by $190, where sellers may start taking profits. If the momentum continues, the coin could aim for the psychological level of $200 in the coming sessions.

However, a short-term retracement toward $150–$155 is possible as traders lock in gains. The overall trend remains bullish as long as ZEC holds above $150, with moving averages likely to confirm a shift in medium-term sentiment if the price sustains above this region.

Summary:

Trend: #bullish

Support Levels: $150 / $132

Resistance Levels: $175 / $190 / $200

Outlook: Continuation of upside momentum likely if volume and price stability persist above $160.

Would you like me to add RSI, MACD, or moving average indicators to this analysis for a more detailed technical view?
