Rationale

The DAO emissions schedule published at genesis specified a step-down from 2.00% to 1.75% annual Treasury distribution in year 2 of operations. This reduction aligns incentives over time and extends Treasury runway. The reduction has been anticipated by the community and is non-controversial.

Proposed action

Apply the scheduled emissions reduction effective Q3 2026. Treasury distributions to staking participants will decline from 2.00% to 1.75% per annum on June 15, 2026. The impact to annual staker rewards is approximately 0.25 percentage points. All other protocol mechanics remain unchanged.

Risk factors

Lower emissions may affect staking participation marginally. However, the reduction was established at genesis and is widely known. Risk of community objection is minimal. Continued monitoring of staking metrics recommended post-implementation.
