Solana Holders Push for Token Supply Overhaul

Solana holders are pushing for two governance proposals that could reshape the network's token supply. The first proposal, SIMD-0550, would double Solana's annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%, reaching a terminal floor of 1.5% faster than currently planned.

The second proposal, SIMD-0553, aims to increase daily burns by 12-14 times, from around 648 SOL to between 7,500 and 9,000 SOL, through the introduction of resource-based transaction fees that are burned in full.

Together, these proposals would meanfully move the network toward tighter net supply. However, their success relies on broad validator participation, as the support is currently concentrated among a small number of validators.
