Proposed Emission Increase: The Eigen Foundation is proposing to raise the annual inflation rate of EIGEN tokens from 4% to 8% by August 2025, pending governance approval, to incentivize active users and enhance ecosystem growth.
Impact on Staking Rewards: The increase aims to boost staking rewards for EIGEN stakers and operators, while maintaining a 3% emission rate for ETH stakers, potentially stimulating financial and technological engagement within the EigenLayer ecosystem.
Historical Context and Predictions: Previous upgrades have shown positive trends in reward scaling and operator fees, suggesting that enhanced staking incentives could lead to increased adoption and a stronger network for the EIGEN token.
