Question 1

What did Solana's SGP-0002 proposal do?

Accepted Answer

It doubled Solana's annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30% while keeping the long-term 1.5% inflation target unchanged, which brings SOL issuance to that floor in about 2.8 years instead of about 5.7 and removes an estimated 18.9 million SOL from the six-year emissions schedule.

Question 2

How did Kraken affect the vote?

Accepted Answer

Kraken first voted against SGP-0002 at 12:33 UTC on August 28, briefly pushing approval below the 66.67% supermajority, then reversed course so that more than 90% of its about 8.9 million SOL of voting stake backed the measure by the close.

Question 3

Why did Figment vote against the disinflation proposal?

Accepted Answer

Figment, the largest voter with 17.1 million SOL staked, opposed the measure because custodial stakers pull in yield from new token issuance, and faster disinflation lowers staking APY sooner, compressing those receipts.
