[Ronin Announces Economic Model Adjustments: Passive Staking Rewards to Be Eliminated, Transitioning to Token-Weighted Governance]
Ronin announced on Platform X that as the network upgrades to Ethereum Layer 2 in late March, it will implement a series of economic model reforms, including eliminating passive staking rewards and the old validator system. The network will transition to a 'contribution-based allocation' mechanism, providing targeted rewards to impactful builders. The treasury will increase its revenue sources, including higher revenue shares from Ronin marketplace transaction fees, sequencer profits, and token income from Ronin applications and games. Governance rights will shift from validators to a token-weighted voting system, where RON holders will vote on treasury buybacks, investments, and DeFi activities.
Ronin stated that the current RON token supply dynamics have issues that require a complete overhaul. The new treasury mechanism will increase the proportion of protocol NFT and ERC20 transaction volume flowing into the treasury, include sequencer net profits in the treasury, and transfer approximately 90 million RON originally allocated for passive staking into the treasury. Each year, 5 million RON from the original staking reward pool will be allocated for PoD rewards, with reward criteria including TVL, gas consumption, user retention, and transaction volume. The team stated that these structural reforms aim to strengthen RON's fundamentals, incentivize builders, and make the token economy healthier and more resilient.
