Solana Vote Approves Lower SOL Issuance After Narrow Disinflation Decision

Solana’s “Double Disinflation” proposal has passed, setting the network on a path to issue less SOL. The decision came by an extremely narrow margin, with Kraken’s position nearly preventing approval, according to Decrypt. A separate proposal focused on burning fees did not pass. The vote creates a change in Solana’s monetary direction by reducing the rate at which new SOL is printed, while leaving the fee-burning measure unsuccessful. The outcome is relevant to SOL holders and market participants tracking the token’s future supply dynamics. Decrypt reported the result on August 28, 2026, describing the vote as a close contest after Kraken almost overturned the proposal.
