Solana News: Proposals Could Cut $1.5Bn in SOL Issuance

In Solana news today, SOL is trading at $105, up +9% over the past 24 hours, as validators weigh a governance shift that could reshape the network’s supply curve for years.

Two proposals are quietly doing what most SOL price action can’t: forcing a real conversation about scarcity.

Solana voters are deciding on SGP-0002 and SGP-0003, formal votes tied to technical proposals SIMD-0550 and SIMD-0553, with voting running through epoch 1023 (expected around 15:30 UTC on Aug. 27).

SIMD-0550 would double the annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%, pushing the network toward its 1.5% terminal inflation rate by early 2029 instead of 2032.
