The APTOS (APT) group is presently reviewing AIP-119, a brand new governance proposal. This proposes step by step scale back the community's staking yield.
The proposal submitted by group member Moon Shiesty proposes a 1% lower per 30 days for the subsequent three months, in the end lowering it to round 3.79%.
In line with particulars shared on the APTOS governance web page, AIP-119 will function step one in a broader effort to reconstruct APTOS's financial mannequin. The yield changes are anticipated to happen inside three months, however the total impression of the proposal will probably be assessed over six months, permitting group suggestions and efficiency assessments.
The proposal argues that the present ∼7% staking yield is excessively excessive, limiting capital effectivity and pushing members to increased danger methods akin to restake, depine infrastructure, MEV (extractable worth of miners), and defi incentives. Decrease staking rewards might scale back the attraction of retaining APT, however the proposal factors out that this may be offset by lowering inflation and creating various reward techniques.
One concern addressed within the proposal is the potential impression on small validators. AIP-119 proposes the creation of group staking initiatives to assist validators with lower than 3 million APTs, encouraging communities to develop extra sustainable and long-term incentive mechanisms.
The proposal will probably be reviewed by the group and basis over the subsequent 4 weeks, with a mainnet vote anticipated within the fifth week.
