For holders of MATIC on Polygon PoS, no action will be required.
POL will be upgraded automatically to become the native gas and staking token on Polygon PoS without lifting a finger.
For holders of MATIC on Ethereum, Polygon zkEVM, or centralized exchanges (CEXes), some action may be required if a user desires to upgrade MATIC to POL.
When MATIC holders are ready to upgrade, a migration contract that is already deployed will enable holders to upgrade MATIC to POL on Ethereum permissionlessly.
