Overview
- Solana opened on‑chain votes for SGP‑0001, SGP‑0002 and SGP‑0003 on Aug. 23 and voting runs through epoch 1023 with final tallies expected around Aug. 27.
- SGP‑0002 would double the annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30% and linked modeling estimates about 18.9 million fewer SOL issued over six years compared with the current schedule.
- SGP‑0003 would split the base transaction charge into a fixed inclusion fee paid to block leaders and a variable resource fee that the protocol would burn, with SIMD‑0553 proposing a 2,500‑lamport inclusion fee.
- A successful SGP vote would be a directional mandate that sends developers to write, test and activate SIMDs rather than instantly changing protocol code, and passage requires one‑third stake participation plus two‑thirds support of participating stake.
- The proposals cut future dilution but also lower modeled staking yields and tighten validator revenue, a trade‑off highlighted by Nasdaq‑listed Solana Company’s announced vote against SGP‑0002 because staking accounted for about 99.4% of its Q2 revenue.
