Solana's on-chain governance just went live, and the first real test is whether the community can vote its way out of a structural inflation problem. The Solana Foundation deployed Solana Governance Proposals this week, enabling validators to submit and vote on protocol changes using stake-weighted voting.
Three coordinated proposals are now in community discussion, and the combined intent is clear: reduce net SOL issuance, potentially close to zero during periods of high network activity. Here's the supply picture first.
Price-wise, SOL put in a strong week. Twelve-point-seven-one percent weekly gains, daily volume rising to two-point-three-two billion dollars.
Away from governance, a new infrastructure layer quietly landed this week. ERPC integrated x402, a payment protocol that lets bots and AI agents pay for RPC access in USDC on a per-query basis.
The broader institutional picture continued to build. Grayscale published research validating one hundred million daily transactions on Solana, pointing specifically to Raydium's three-hundred-and-sixty billion dollars in year-to-date volume, alongside Pump.fun and Geodnet as fee-generating applications.
The real test now is sequencing. Can SGP move the SIMD proposals through formal votes before momentum in the market either confirms or stalls?
