The Near community proposes to lower the maximum inflation rate of NEAR from 5% to 2.5%, with only 7.42% currently in favor The Near community has proposed a proposal to improve the NEAR token economy by reducing inflation, aiming to lower the maximum inflation rate from 5% to 2.5% while retaining flexibility in future adjustments. If the transaction fee is reduced by about 0.1%, the actual inflation rate will drop to 2.4%, and the staking yield will be reduced or token holders will be incentivized to participate in DeFi. The proposal points out that the current 5% annual fixed inflation rate of NEAR has led to an increase in circulating tokens, dilution of equity, and depreciation of tokens due to the low disposal of transaction fees. However, the current support rate for the proposal is only 7.42%, with 36 days and 22 hours left until the end of voting. Opponents argue that reducing the validator incentive by 50% would make their validation nodes unprofitable, reduce the number of validators and stakers, and do not believe that there is a strong correlation between inflation rate and price performance.
