Flop Labs officially released an announcement, making the draft of the $FLOP tokenomics model public. The total supply cap is set at 18.1 billion tokens by the end of Year 10, with a terminal inflation rate of 0.5% per year and a halving mechanism to control the release pace. Core principles include no VC allocation and no pre-sale, with all tokens distributed solely through participation. The allocation structure is as follows: • Miners: 8.8 billion tokens, accounting for 48.6%, representing the largest share • Airdrop: 4.4 billion tokens, accounting for 24.3%, covering miners, validators, Agents, and reserve incentives • Team + Foundation: 2.0 billion tokens, accounting for 10.8% • Validators: 1.2 billion tokens, accounting for 6.5% • Broker/Agent: 1.2 billion tokens, accounting for 6.5% • Staking Rewards: 600 million tokens, accounting for 3.2% Currently, this data represents a draft version, and all figures remain subject to adjustment.

According to CoinDesk, the Ethereum Research Forum has released a new proposal introducing a “Validator Redirection Yield” mechanism, allowing validators to redirect 0% to 10% of their staking rewards toward funding ecosystem infrastructure and public goods. If a majority of validators support a specific redirection percentage, that percentage will become mandatory for all validators. Based on current staking levels, a 5% to 10% redirection would generate approximately 50,000 to 70,000 ETH annually for the ecosystem—roughly $120 million. The proposal aims to address Ethereum’s long-standing “free-rider” problem; however, it has also raised external concerns regarding risks such as coordinated validator manipulation of fund allocation and misaligned interests between staking operators and ETH holders. The proposal remains under discussion and has not yet entered the formal voting process.
Nasdaq-listed company TON Strategy disclosed that it received approximately 3.3 million TON in rewards in May from staking about 227 million Toncoin, valued at roughly $5.6 million at market prices, with an initial annualized staking yield of around 1.48%.

Key adjustments include: reducing the annual staking reward rate from 5.19% to 2.6%; increasing gas fees by 10x (stablecoin transfer costs remain low at approximately $0.00014); the launch of the Decibel DEX is expected to significantly boost on-chain transaction volume and gas fee burning, with over 32 million APT projected to be burned annually; setting a protocol-layer hard cap on total supply at 2.1 billion APT; permanently locking and staking 210 million APT by the Aptos Foundation; shifting future incentives to milestone-triggered releases; and exploring a programmable buyback program.
