Inflação

Solana's protocol-level mechanism for issuing new SOL to reward validators and stakers, starting at an initial annual inflation rate of 8% at genesis (Q1 2021) and decreasing by 15% of the current rate each year until reaching a long-term fixed rate of 1.5% per year. New SOL is minted each epoch proportionally to each validator's active stake and distributed as staking rewards; 50% of transaction base fees are burned, creating partial deflationary pressure. The net effective inflation rate depends on the proportion of SOL actively staked.
