Solana traded just above $109 on Friday, up about 50% this month.<\/strong> Validators are casting the chain\u2019s first governance vote, whose result Solana has to follow.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This could slow down the creation of new SOL and increase the amount burned every day.<\/p>\n

Solana\u2019s staking yield would slide to 2.25% in three years<\/span><\/h3>\n

Three proposals are available on the ballot. Validators vote, and anyone who has staked SOL with them votes too.<\/p>\n

Nothing is settled until epoch 1023 wraps up. Solana was only about two-thirds of the way there on Friday.<\/p>\n

SGP-0001 would ratify a Solana Constitution, codifying how these decisions are made. This turns on the svmgov<\/a> on-chain governance system.<\/p>\n

At least a third of all staked SOL has to vote. Two-thirds of the stake that votes has to say yes. Abstaining is not recorded as a no, but it still counts in the total, so it works against a proposal just as a no would.<\/p>\n

All three proposals have cleared the quorum. SGP-0001 leads with 95.33% support, and SGP-0002 has 68.63%, both above the two-thirds bar.<\/p>\n

SGP-0003 has 62.63% yes votes, short of the same bar, with abstentions at 20.74%.<\/p>\n

SGP-0002 is related to SIMD-0550 and was written by Helius engineers Lostin and 0xIchigo. It proposes to double the network\u2019s annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%.<\/p>\n

This proposal quickens the descent to Solana\u2019s current 1.5% terminal floor. That would mean hitting the floor in 2029, instead of 2032, which strips ~18.9 million SOL from future emissions.<\/p>\n

Cryptopolitan<\/a> reports that under the authors\u2019 68% staking-participation scenario, staking yield starts at 5.84% but then moves to 4.34% after a year, 3% after two, and 2.25% after three.<\/p>\n

SGP-0003 would divide Solana\u2019s flat per-signature charge into two parts, along with SIMD-0553 from Temporal\u2019s cavemanloverboy.<\/p>\n

There is a fixed inclusion fee of 2,500 lamports paid to the block leader and a resource fee proportional to the compute a transaction uses that is burned.<\/p>\n

The change could boost daily SOL burns from ~650 to between 7,500 and 9,000.<\/p>\n

At current prices, that ranges from around $47,000 to as much as $650,000 a day.<\/p>\n

Inflation still creates about 64,000 SOL every day, so even at 9,000 SOL, the burn offsets about 14% of new supply.<\/p>\n

1.3 billion transactions in a week set a network record<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Nasdaq-listed Solana Company endorses the governance framework but votes against both economic proposals, citing their timing rather than their goals.<\/p>\n

DeFi Development Corp., which trades on Nasdaq as DFDV and holds SOL as its main reserve, said on August 4 it supports both changes and would vote yes.<\/p>\n

In March 2025, a proposal to cut inflation by 80% failed, with 61.39% of the participating stake voting in favor, below the two-thirds hurdle these votes demand.<\/p>\n

SOL is having its best month since 2024, and network usage hit records along with it.<\/p>\n

Solana set the record for the most non-voting transactions<\/a> in a week with over 1.3 billion. The driver was the 2.6 million daily active users and a resurgence in meme-token trading through the FOMO app and Pump.fun, Cryptopolitan reported.<\/p>\n

The heightened activity pushed Solana\u2019s daily burn rate to 1.53% as of August 23, which is the highest since early 2025.<\/p>\n
