# Wrapped POL (WMATIC / WPOL)

rotki decodes WMATIC / WPOL deposit (wrap) and withdraw (unwrap) events so POL and WPOL movements appear as their underlying native-token transfer. You choose which Polygon RPC endpoint handles the queries.

## Features

- Wrap and unwrap events decoded into the underlying POL movement.
- WPOL tracked as a token balance alongside native POL.

## Setup

1. In rotki, add your Polygon address. WPOL activity is decoded automatically.
2. Open History and let the initial sync run. WPOL events are decoded automatically.

## FAQ

### What's the difference between WMATIC and WPOL?

Same contract, renamed alongside the MATIC-to-POL token rename. rotki handles both labels and the underlying balance.

### Which Polygon RPC does rotki use?

rotki is a local application that talks directly to the Polygon RPC endpoint you configure - the public default, a third-party provider, or your own node. The query goes from your computer to that endpoint without passing through any rotki-operated server.
