Solana developer cavemanloverboy introduced proposal SIMD-547 to overhaul SOL tokenomics by adding a new base fee for transactions, increasing the amount of SOL tokens burned. This change aims to reduce inflation and could make SOL deflationary during periods of high network activity, potentially boosting daily token burn from 648 to up to 64,800 SOL.
