Solana proposals target $1.5B issuance cut

• Two Solana proposals could reduce future SOL issuance by about US$1.5 billion.
• One would double the annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%.
• The proposals would also increase SOL burns from about 650 to 7,500–9,000 daily.

Solana (CRYPTO:SOL) could reduce future token issuance by about US$1.5 billion under two governance proposals.

SIMD-0550 would double annual disinflation from 15% to 30%, cutting about 18.9 million SOL over six years.

SIMD-0553 would introduce resource-based fees and increase daily SOL burns from roughly 650 to 7,500–9,000.

The proposals would push Solana towards its 1.5% terminal inflation rate by about 2029 instead of 2032.

The proposals have not passed and still require Solana governance approval before taking effect.

SIMD-0550 was created by Helius engineers Lostin and 0xIchigo and entered review in June.

The changes would reduce new SOL supply while increasing the amount of SOL removed through transaction-fee burns.

At the time of reporting, Solana price was $101.16.
