Following the failure of a proposal aimed at changing Solana’s tokenomics, co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko has reiterated the importance of decisive and efficient governance. Yakovenko believes that the ability to fail quickly and move on is more beneficial to Solana’s growth than a slow-moving system that approves every proposal.

Solana’s Governance Needs Speed and Precision

Despite the community’s rejection of Solana Improvement Document (SIMD)-0228, Yakovenko remains focused on the positive aspects of the process. He emphasized that while the proposal did not pass, the speed and decisiveness with which it was handled demonstrated the efficiency of Solana’s governance framework.

The SIMD-0228 proposal sought to implement a dynamic inflation model, replacing Solana’s existing fixed inflation schedule. However, concerns over centralization and the potential disadvantages for smaller validators led to widespread division within the community. Despite this, Yakovenko sees the rejection as a valuable learning experience and an opportunity to improve Solana’s governance structure.

Yakovenko stressed that rapid iteration and decision-making are more critical to Solana’s long-term success than ensuring that every proposal gets approved. He believes that the quick resolution of the proposal allows the network to pivot and explore better approaches without unnecessary delays.

“How fast the ecosystem iterates is a thousand times more important than making sure that every proposal passes,” Yakovenko stated.

The voting process for SIMD-0228 saw over 74% of validators participate, with Yakovenko himself supporting the proposal. Prominent ecosystem players, including VanEck, also backed the initiative, amid speculation that approval could have triggered a bullish price movement for Solana.


SOL Price Outlook: Bulls Remain Optimistic Despite Challenges

While the rejection of the SIMD-0228 proposal was a setback for some, bullish investors still maintain hope for an upward price movement for SOL. The network has experienced downward pressure in recent weeks, exacerbated by Alameda Research’s unstaking of SOL, which has added selling pressure to the market. Additionally, a sharp decline in Solana’s decentralized exchange (DEX) trading volume has raised concerns about the asset’s short-term price stability.

However, market analysts are keeping an eye on historical patterns, particularly a potential repeat of Solana’s 2021 rally, which could send SOL to $4,000 if conditions align. There is growing speculation that Solana could eventually surpass Ethereum’s market capitalization, fueled by an increasing number of projects migrating to or launching on the Solana network.

In the short term, traders are watching for SOL to reach $200 by the end of March, despite concerns over a looming “death cross” on the charts, a technical indicator that could signal potential downside risks.

While uncertainty remains, optimists are betting on Solana’s strong on-chain fundamentals and its ability to iterate quickly—a trait Yakovenko believes will be crucial in shaping the network’s future success.
