Practical endgame on issuance policy

AI summary of the linked article

Anders Elowsson proposes a practical endgame for Ethereum issuance policy that would stop growth in stake while keeping consensus incentives and paying positive regular rewards to diligent small solo stakers. The proposal favors viability over certainty, arguing that lowering the staking yield to a low but positive level will likely be enough. The article suggests a social cap of 0.5% annual issuance, which it describes as easy to understand and high enough to sustain a viable staking set. It notes that around 35M ETH is currently staked and identifies a cubed reward curve as fitting the preferred range, while leaving the exact curve specification open for community agreement.
