#16·Update dApp Staking Parameters to Enhance Tokenomics and Stabilize APR

Proposal Description

This proposal, initiated by the Astar Foundation, recommends an update to the dApp Staking parameters to optimize Astar's tokenomics and bring staking APRs closer to a sustainable, stable range. The proposed changes aim to align staking rewards with ecosystem activity, reduce inflation, and enhance long-term value for ASTR holders.

Summary of Proposed Changes

• Reduce BaseStakersPart from 25% to 10%
• Increase AdjustableStakersPart from 40% to 55%
  Total staker reward allocation remains unchanged.

Why This Matters

• Reduce Inflation: When the staking ratio is low, current inflation levels are unnecessarily high. This change reduces excess inflation while maintaining staking incentives.
• Stabilize APR: Tying rewards more closely to the staking ratio will make APRs more predictable and competitive.
• Support Ecosystem Growth: These adjustments help Astar remain aligned with industry benchmarks (e.g., Polkadot, Injective) while preserving a lower inflation rate.

By implementing these adjustments, Astar will move closer to the ideal 50% staking ratio, creating a more resilient and attractive ecosystem for both developers and stakers.
