Proposal HSP-029, which lowers maximum annual issuance from 2.5 to 1.6 percent, now carries the status "Succeeded", meaning approved, in the NEAR governance forum. Voting in the House of Stake ran from October 19 to November 2, 2026. For anyone staking NEAR, this means that according to the proposal's model calculations, the gross yield will fall from 5.27 to 3.37 percent over two years once the change takes effect technically. That is at least three months away.
