The Kava Network announced via X (formerly Twitter) on Monday that Kava 15 is set to launch on mainnet on December 7th. The launch will permanently reduce KAVA inflation to zero on exactly midnight Dec 31st.
This implies that the circulating KAVA supply will be set to the Max Supply KAVA supply. No new KAVA coins can be created. KAVA coins can only be destroyed (burned). All KAVA inflation mechanisms are zeroed or removed from the chain protocol, reinforcing Kava’s commitment to a stable and predictable ecosystem.
Furthermore, the Kava chain operations will migrate to a sustainable model, driven by transaction fees, emissions from native projects, and interim allocations from the Kava Foundation, the team added.
Kava aims to become the default DeFi platform by providing stablecoins and decentralized lending against all major crypto assets. KAVA is down by less than 1% in the last 24 hours and is trading at $0.809 at press time.
