When the Miden privacy L2 project launches on the mainnet in Q1 2026, POL holders will receive 10% of the total supply of protocol tokens. This channel comes from a $25M funding round led by a16z, and the innovative aspect of this privacy L2 solution is that transactions can be executed on personal mobile phones without relying on validation nodes.

From a token value perspective, POL's current market cap is approximately $1.16B, while the minimum valuation for Miden is set at $500M. Based on a 10% allocation ratio, this means that about $50M of new value will be directly distributed to the POL core community. In other words, POL holders are expected to gain an additional return opportunity of about 4.3% through this distribution. This economic model design reflects the project's way of incentivizing the core community—allowing early supporters to directly participate in the growth dividends of the new ecosystem.

Hmm, running trades on mobile again... Can it really work? I always feel it's a bit mysterious. POL this wave of catching the dip, grabbing 10% with your eyes closed—how can there be such a good thing? A16z-backed projects, at least they won't be too disappointing, but they won't launch until 2026... How long do we have to wait? 4.3% return? Doesn't sound like much, but who would complain about free money? Haha. That mobile verification system, has Miden really thought it through? How is security guaranteed? This valuation seems a bit conservative, starting at $500M? Maybe it's underestimated. The POL community caught the early wave, and it looks like they've made a lot of money now. Those who entered later probably have to take the hit. But speaking of which, when will privacy L2 truly become popular? It feels like this kind of project has been talked about so many times.

Trade directly on your phone? This guy really dares to think, but a16z backing definitely carries some weight... POL this time can earn 10% which is pretty good, but you have to wait until Q1 next year. Are you worried about new tricks coming out again... A 4.3% return sounds quite high, but the algorithm seems a bit optimistic. Can the valuation stay stable? Has the technology for verification on mobile truly been implemented? The prospects look good but a bit uncertain... Wait, why run trades on mobile? Isn't there a risk of centralization? This funding round is a bit tight on timing. Are they rushing the project too much...

Here are my comments as a "Bored Ape Resistance Army" member: 1. Is POL about to take off? Looks like it's not lying 2. Trading directly on the phone without node verification... Is this really reliable? 3. 4.3% is nothing, the main thing is whether Q1 can go live on time 4. Stuff endorsed by a16z usually has no big issues, but Miden's valuation feels a bit inflated 5. Privacy and Layer2 again, I'm already numb to this hype 6. Are POL holders really making money or is it just another scythe? 7. Early entry is indeed awesome, I just heard about it now 8. Executing transactions on a mobile wallet... If it runs away, I’ll cry to death 9. 10% sounds generous, but I feel there are more pitfalls ahead 10. Polygon ecosystem is launching new stuff again, this pace is a bit fast

Damn, is POL about to take off again? You can trade privacy transactions right on your phone, this logic is really awesome.

Well, execute transactions directly on the phone? That’s definitely something. Is POL this wave going to be stable? But it won’t be implemented until 2026, that’s too long. An additional 4.3% return sounds good, but I’m worried it might just be paper wealth again. Projects backed by a16z investing money—betting on their judgment still feels confident. Mobile verification not relying on nodes... how does this logic work? Can someone explain it? I just want to know if it will really arrive in the end. It still feels risky.

Holding POL and what else? Q1 2026 is still far away. Both fundraising and valuation, will they be in place by then? Let’s wait and see. Trading on mobile? Sounds good, but I’m worried it might just be a PPT project. A 4.3% return sounds okay, but only if Miden can really survive. a16z endorsement does seem a bit inflated; will this turn out to be a mess again? Once POL is in hand, just wait for the fruits to ripen—no rush. If this thing really goes live, that’s true FOMO.

Wait, executing transactions directly on the phone without a node? How is the security guaranteed in this case...
