Solana Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) DeFi Development Corp. (DFDV) expressed its support for a sweeping proposal aimed at accelerating the network’s disinflation schedule.&nbsp;
On Tuesday, DFDV <a href="https://x.com/defidevcorp/status/1992988147869753490" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">became</a> the first Solana treasury to publicly endorse Solana Improvement Document (SIMD)-0411, a proposal to double Solana's annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%, thereby reducing projected future emissions by over 22 million SOL over the next six years.&nbsp;
“This proposal may come as a surprise to some, but its timing makes sense,” DFDV wrote. “The ecosystem has grown increasingly vocal about Solana’s current inflation schedule and its impact on SOL’s price.”&nbsp;
Solana Strategic Reserve data <a href="https://www.strategicsolanareserve.org/entity/03b21007-dfd3-46fc-b249-931066fc17d3" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">shows</a> that DFDV holds nearly 2.2 million Solana (<a href="/solana-price-index" rel="noopener noreferrer">SOL</a>), worth about $300 million at the time of writing. This makes the company the third-largest corporate holder of SOL tokens.&nbsp;
While DFDV’s support adds institutional weight to the high-stakes discussion, other DATs, such as Forward Industries or Solana Company, haven’t weighed in on the topic.&nbsp;

Helius Labs developers <a href="https://github.com/solana-foundation/solana-improvement-documents/pull/411/files" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">introduced</a> SIMD-0411 on Saturday, marking one of the most significant monetary policy proposals for Solana since its launch.&nbsp;
The draft recommends doubling Solana’s annual disinflation rate from 15% to 30%, which would bring the network to its long-standing 1.5% terminal inflation rate in just three years rather than six.&nbsp;

According to the modeling shared in the proposal, the change would reduce projected emissions by about 22 million SOL tokens, equivalent to about $3 billion, over a six-year period.&nbsp;
The developers said that the existing inflation curve no longer reflected the network’s maturity, pointing toward network revenue, user activity and decentralized finance (DeFi) throughput.&nbsp;
By trimming the issuance, proponents said that the network could reduce structural sell pressure and align it more closely with what institutional investors expect from a modern crypto asset.&nbsp;

CoinGecko data <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/solana" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">shows</a> that SOL fell from $197 on Oct. 26 to $136 at the time of writing, a 30% decline in the past month. The sharp downturn added urgency to the inflation debate, with some of the top corporate holders sitting on heavy losses.&nbsp;
According to CoinGecko, Forward Industries, the largest corporate SOL holder, <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/treasuries/companies/forward-industries" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">faces</a> an unrealized loss of about $646.6 million, representing a 41% decline from its aggregate purchase price.
Upexi, the fifth-largest corporate holder, also <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/treasuries/companies/upexi" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">sits</a> in the red, with about $31 million in unrealized losses, marking a 10% decline from its entry prices.&nbsp;
DFDV, which publicly <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/treasuries/companies/defi-dev" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">endorsed</a> the proposal, is still in profit. CoinGecko data showed that the company remained up by about $62 million, reflecting a 26.6% unrealized gain on its SOL purchases to date.
