CoinFeed reported on March 3rd that, according to The Defiant, the Aptos community overwhelmingly passed a proposal aimed at introducing deflationary token economics, with voting ending on March 1st. The proposal sets a hard cap of 2.1 billion APT tokens, transforming APT from an unlimited supply to a finite supply. The voting results showed 335.2 million APT in favor and only 1,500 against, but the participation rate was only 39%, slightly above the community's required 35% threshold. The proposal is currently pending implementation. The proposal aims to enhance APT's deflationary properties by limiting future inflation and rewarding long-term holders. Previously, Aptos updated its token economic model: Gas fees increased tenfold, and the supply cap was set at 2.1 billion tokens.
