Solana governance votes yield split results on reforms

Overview

The first major on-chain governance cycle for Solana has concluded with a split outcome for the three primary proposals.

SGP-0002, the “Double Disinflation” proposal, narrowly passed with 67% support, just exceeding the required two-thirds threshold. This approval was secured after the validator Kraken flipped its vote from against to for in the final moments. The measure will double the annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%, accelerating the timeline to reach a 1.5% terminal inflation floor to 2029. This change is projected to reduce SOL issuance by approximately 18.9 million tokens over the next six years.

In contrast, SGP-0003, which proposed a restructured fee system to increase daily SOL burns to between 7,500 and 9,000 tokens, failed to pass. It received 62.72% support, falling short of the two-thirds requirement, a result attributed in part to a high abstention rate. However, SGP-0001, which seeks to establish the “Solana Constitution,” passed with overwhelming support of over 95%.

The results highlighted stakeholder tensions. While many investors viewed the disinflation as a bullish supply-side move, Solana Company (HSDT) opposed the economic changes, arguing that institutions require more predictable structures for long-term planning. Co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko previously expressed concerns that combining multiple complex decisions into a single voting period could deter participation.
