Researchers describe this proposal as a "more market-oriented approach to determining the future SOL inflation rate." In contrast to traditional "yes/no" binary voting, MESA enables validators to vote on multiple inflation reduction proposals, and the final result is determined through a weighted average. Galaxy stated: "Rather than continuously toggling between inflation reduction proposals until one is passed, it is preferable to allow validators to assign voting weights to one or more proposals, and then take the weighted results of all 'yes' votes as the final issuance curve." This mechanism was inspired by the previous SIMD-228 proposal. Although the community generally supports reducing the SOL inflation rate, the binary votin

On April 18th, as per Cointelegraph, Bitcoin has reached a Realized Cap of $872 billion, attaining a brand-new all-time high. Nevertheless, Glassnode's data indicates that investors' enthusiasm for the present Bitcoin price level is still lacking. Despite the new all-time high in Realized Cap, the monthly growth rate of this metric has plummeted to 0.9%, suggesting that the market is in a "risk-off" sentiment. Realized Cap measures the total value of all Bitcoin calculated based on the price of their last transfer, reflecting the actual capital inflow and can be utilized to observe Bitcoin's economic activity. The decelerating growth implies that although there is still a net inflow of funds, it has significantly diminished, indicating a decrease in the number of new investors or a weakening of the activity of existing holders.
