Solana Tightens Supply and Expands Distribution Channels

Solana validators have passed a proposal to double the network's disinflation rate, reducing estimated future token emissions by $1.5 billion over six years.

This change accelerates the pace at which new SOL issuance shrinks each year, reaching the network's 1.5 percent terminal inflation floor by roughly the first half of 2029 instead of 2032.

The proposal, SGP-0002, cleared the two-thirds supermajority by just 0.33 percentage points, with a record 60.7 percent participation among 1,326 validators.

In other news, Charles Schwab announced it will add SOL to its retail crypto trading platform, opening direct access to 39.9 million brokerage accounts sitting on $13.04 trillion in client assets.
