The Solana community is actively discussing inflation rates, with Galaxy Research proposing a new innovative voting system.
Moving Beyond Traditional Voting Approaches
The new voting system, called "Multiple Election Stake-Weight Aggregation (MESA)", offers a more comprehensive approach to reflecting community opinions. Instead of simply voting 'yes' or 'no', participants can indicate their preferred inflation rates, and the final decision is shaped by the weighted average of these rates. Galaxy Research notes that the previous system failed to accurately reflect the community's desires, leading to the rejection of the earlier SIMD-228 proposal.
Critiques of MESA and Noteworthy Alternative Proposals
Max Resnick, Chief Economist at Anza, expressed concerns about the complexity of the MESA system, which may confuse participants. He emphasized that individuals often vote at extremes to achieve their preferred outcome, potentially disrupting the system’s balance. Resnick still supports the dynamic supply model of SIMD-228 as being more secure and efficient. Meanwhile, Solana Labs co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko proposed using the stake-weighted median instead of the weighted average, which could yield more representative results.
Conclusion and Prospects
The discussion around the new MESA system is ongoing, and the community is considering various approaches to voting. It is crucial for participants to engage actively in the process and discuss the best ways to manage inflation within the Solana network.
