$NEAR Proposes Token Issuance Reduction in Scarcity and Yield Shift

NEAR Protocol is proposing to reduce token issuance from 2.5% to 1.6% per epoch, aiming to balance scarcity and yield.

This change will lower staking yields from approximately 5.4% to 3.4%, impacting the economic incentives for token holders.

The proposal, put forth by Sal Ternullo, encourages community feedback on how this shift could affect the stability and value of $NEAR's economy.

As NEAR seeks to distance itself from previous token-centric models, this approach reflects a more sustainable economic vision that prioritizes both decentralization and economic stability.
