NEAR co-founder proposes establishing a sovereign fund, with the long-term goal of reducing inflation.

NEAR co-founder and NEAR Foundation CEO Illia Polosukhin has proposed establishing the NEAR Sovereign Fund, which would draw capital from the protocol’s existing and future treasuries plus current and upcoming protocol revenue. The fund would be managed via governance-set parameters to generate NEAR-denominated returns. Per the proposal, the fund will initially launch with the protocol’s current treasury of approximately 30 million NEAR tokens. Protocol revenue will flow into the fund within governance-defined limits and be converted to NEAR; a portion of returns will fund validator support programs, MPC service providers, and other ecosystem public goods. House of Stake representatives can also participate and share returns via existing delegation mechanisms. If the initial phase proves effective, NEAR will gradually allocate more protocol revenue and a portion of token emissions to the fund, while continuing to reward core validators and stakers and reduce actual inflation. Long-term, the fund could cover all network security and public goods costs, creating conditions for NEAR to transition to a fixed token supply. The proposal is currently a discussion draft, not a binding decision. Polosukhin plans to gather feedback from validators, token holders, and community members over the next two weeks before evaluating whether to proceed with launching the fund.
