Perhaps the most important came from the network itself.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"issuance-changed\">Issuance Changed<\/h2>\n<p>The network finally succeeded in reducing future SOL issuance. Although the decision could hardly have been any closer, validators approved SGP-0002, which endorses doubling Solana&#8217;s annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%. The proposal finished with approximately 67%, barely clearing the two-thirds supermajority required for approval.<\/p>\n<p>Helius CEO Mert Mumtaz, one of the most prominent and vocal supporters, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/mert\/status\/2093359812633616577\">summed up the dramatic finish<\/a> by saying his team made hundreds of calls in the final hours and ultimately passed the measure by a &#8220;literal hair.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that the proposal does not eliminate inflation. It doubles the speed at which SOL&#8217;s existing inflation rate declines each year &#8211; from 15% to 30%, while leaving the network&#8217;s terminal inflation rate unchanged at 1.5%. Under the current schedule, Solana was expected to reach that floor in the first half of 2032.\u00a0The new schedule reduces that time by half, bringing it to H1 of 2029.<\/p>\n<p>The trade-off is that normal staking yields are projected to fall faster as fewer new tokens are distributed, which is where most of the arguments against it come from.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"sol-etf-breaks-1-billion-milestone\">SOL ETF Breaks $1 Billion Milestone<\/h2>\n<p>The Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL) became the first exchange-traded fund tracking the altcoin to surpass the coveted $1 billion target in assets under management on Friday. It saw the light of day last October, meaning that it took around 10 months to do so.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s particularly interesting here is that this achievement occurred despite SOL&#8217;s broader price performance. As Bitwise President Teddy Fusaro pointed out, BSOL shares remain about 40% below their listing prices, while SOL itself is still 60% away from its ATH.<\/p>\n<p>BSOL held more than 9.3 million SOL when it crossed the $1 billion mark. It targets staking 100% of its holdings, while the net staking reward rate currently stands at around 5.8%.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"whales-go-big\">Whales Go Big<\/h2>\n<p>Lookonchain data from earlier today showed that two major Solana whales have continued to withdraw major holdings from exchanges after completing significant accumulations. A wallet ending with 3WzfuP withdrew almost $3.9 million in SOL from Kraken, while another one, ending with 5p6zPz, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/lookonchain\/status\/2093533998819737692\">transferred<\/a> nearly $30 million worth of the asset from Binance.<\/p>\n<p>SOL&#8217;s price has been on the move lately, surging to a six-month peak at over $105 on Friday before the broader market&#8217;s correction drove it south. Nevertheless, it remains well above $100 after a 42% monthly surge.
