[Governance] Proposal #23 is live on the Persistence Core-1 chain for voting. ℹ️ Topic: Change in Inflation Parameters (Phase 1 of $XPRT Tokenomics Improvement) 🌐 Proposal link: Keplr: https://wallet.keplr.app/chains/persistence/proposals/23 Leap: https://cosmos.leapwallet.io/gov/persistence/23 Mintscan: https://www.mintscan.io/persistence/proposals/23 🗣 Forum Discussion: https://forum.persistence.one/t/bringing-forward-the-inflation-halving/212 ⚡️Tl;dr of Proposal 23: At Genesis, the Core-1 chain’s block per year was set based on a 5s block time and an inflation halving event every 2 years. Due to the actual on-chain block time being 6s, this event will occur in early August 2023 (~4 months delay). However, the current $XPRT inflation has reached its minimum of 25% quite some time back. Proposed imminent changes in Phase 1 of a larger $XPRT Tokenomics Improvement: 1. Reduce the $XPRT Minimum Inflation to 12.5% from 25% 2. Reduce the $XPRT Maximum Inflation to 25% from 45% 3. Adjust blocks per year to ensure the next halving is ~2 years after (if) the proposal passes 🚨 Persisters, let’s be sure to vote on this significant proposal before 12 May 2023! 🦾
