Solana's 10x burn proposal clears initial governance threshold
AI Market Summary
Solana's proposed governance package to increase fee-based burns by 10x+ has reached an initial support threshold, moving it into discussion ahead of a formal vote after Sept. 1. If adopted, higher burns (up to ~9,000 SOL/day) and faster disinflation would materially slow net supply growth even while issuance remains inflationary. The news can tighten medium-term tokenomics expectations and influence SOL positioning into the vote.

A governance proposal that would raise Solana's daily token burns by more than tenfold has passed its first milestone, reaching the 15% support threshold with 65.22M SOL backing from 76 validators. Helius and Jupiter are the largest supporters, pledging 16M SOL and 12.47M SOL, respectively.
The measure remains in the discussion phase until Sept. 1, with a formal vote scheduled afterward.
Under the package, resource-based fees would increase burns from roughly 650 SOL per day to as much as 9,000 SOL. It also includes a doubling of the disinflation rate, bringing forward the 1.5% inflation floor to 2029 from 2032. With issuance still near 60,000 SOL per day, SOL would remain inflationary, though net supply growth would slow materially.
