Description:

The Solana ecosystem just completed a critical governance vote. SIMD-228, a proposal to tie Solana’s inflation rate to its staking participation rate, was put forward by Multicoin Capital and Anza, but despite a majority voting in favor, it failed to meet the required supermajority to pass.

Tushar Jain, co-founder and managing partner at Multicoin Capital, who co-authored the proposal, joins the show to discuss:

  • Why he believes the proposal was necessary
  • Whether inflation is too high for Solana’s long-term health
  • If some validators voted against their own interests
  • The silver lining of the governance process
  • Why a smaller proposal focused on fee sharing did pass
  • Whether Multicoin Capital will resubmit a revised proposal
