Solana validators approve SOL disinflation speedup

The validator vote signals a deliberate shift in SOL's supply trajectory, prioritizing scarcity sooner without altering the ultimate cap. This affects stakers directly, as faster disinflation reduces new issuance rewards, potentially reshaping yield expectations across the ecosystem. The open question is whether this accelerates a re-rating of SOL's value proposition versus networks with higher inflation, or if market participants had already priced in the change. Watch whether other major chains adopt similar supply-tightening mechanisms as a competitive response.
