Polygon block producers have frozen stolen funds linked to Binance and Polymarket, but returning them requires another step: a proposed Polygon hard fork to recover approximately 70.49 million POL . The targeted tokens are valued at about $6.8 million . Parvez03, a member of the Polygon Labs Validator Support Team, submitted the governance proposal on November 4. It covers 23.86 million POL across four addresses associated with the Polymarket hack, valued at $2.31 million, and 46.63 million POL in one Binance-linked address, worth about $4.51 million.
