POL inflation rate

According to token.unlocks.app the new Polygon Ecosystem Token (POL) has monthly inflation of 21.93%. I was considering to buy this token because of the zkEVM narrative and lots of people considering it a solid project, but I just can’t wrap my head around this crazy inflation. I expect bullish trend to continue but even so how can this thing possible grow in price, can sb explain? Or is this only for people who are staking and receiving benefit from the number of tokens rather than from price appreciation?
