Solana’nın Enflasyon Modeli Değişiyor: SIMD-0228 Ne Anlama Geliyor?

Solana’s Game-Changing SIMD-0228 Proposal: What’s at Risk?

Solana community is currently engaged in heated discussions over Solana Improvement Document (SIMD)-0228, a governance proposal that aims to overhaul the network’s tokenomics. This proposal introduces a dynamic, market-driven emissions model for SOL tokens, replacing the fixed inflation schedule with a system tied to staking participation.

Key Changes in Token Emission Structure

Authored by Tushar Jain and Vishal Kankani of Multicoin Capital, with support from Max Resnick, lead economist at Anza, SIMD-0228 seeks to adjust the issuance of new SOL tokens based on the percentage of the total supply staked. Currently, Solana’s inflation rate is fixed at 4.6% annually, which decreases by 15% each year until it stabilizes at 1.5%. SIMD-0228 proposes a model where inflation rises or falls according to the level of staking on the network.

If staking drops below 33%, the emissions rate would increase, encouraging more staking. Conversely, if a higher percentage of SOL is staked, rewards would decrease, reducing inflation and enhancing the token’s scarcity and value.

Impact on Stakers and Validators

The proposed change has the potential to significantly affect smaller stakers and validators, who may see a reduction in profitability as staking rewards decrease. However, proponents argue that the evolving economic activity on Solana justifies these adjustments, aiming to make SOL more valuable in the long term.

If approved, the new system could drop the inflation rate to under 1% annually, given the current 65% staking rate. Should staking participation drop to 33%, inflation would adjust accordingly to incentivize staking, preventing the value from decreasing.

Ecosystem Reactions

Solana’s leadership is divided on SIMD-0228. Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana, and other key figures like Mert Mumtaz, founder of Helius, support the proposal, believing it strengthens the network. However, Lily Liu, president of the Solana Foundation, has expressed concerns, describing the proposal as “too half-baked” and warning that it could alienate institutional investors.

The community is gearing up for a vote in epoch 753, set to occur this weekend. As discussions continue, SIMD-0228 is poised to significantly influence the future of Solana’s economic policy.
