Overview
- Stake‑weighted voting opened on Aug. 23 for SGP‑0001, SGP‑0002 and SGP‑0003 and remains live through epoch 1023 with the window expected to close around Aug. 27.
- SGP‑0002 would double annual disinflation from 15% to 30%, and modeling (SIMD‑0550) projects about 18.9 million fewer SOL issued over six years and lower nominal staking yields (for example a modeled drop from ~5.84% to ~4.34% after one year).
- SGP‑0003 would split the base fee into a fixed inclusion fee and a variable resource fee that the protocol would burn, with SIMD‑0553 projecting daily burns could rise from roughly 650 SOL to between 7,500 and 9,000 SOL if implemented.
- Solana Company publicly said it will oppose SGP‑0002 citing institutional yield predictability and at least one delegator override was recorded on Aug. 23, showing delegators can change their validator’s default vote without undelegating.
- Any passed SGP would act as a directional developer mandate rather than an instant protocol change and would still require follow‑on SIMDs, client work, testing and feature activation while observers note a governance rule inconsistency that could affect final tallying.
