Binance and Polymarket want to recover roughly 70.49 million POL that attackers took on Polygon PoS at the end of October. To do so, the network would use a hard fork to set the balances of five frozen attacker addresses to zero and credit the same amount to recovery addresses controlled by the two companies. What is established: since November 4, 2026 the request has been on the Polygon forum as a PIP proposal, and on November 5 it was presented on the network's governance call. A vote and a date are still pending. Our assessment follows further down: for ordinary holders nothing changes in their balances, but a question of principle about Polygon's immutability is now on the table.
