Let’s talk about Moonbeam’s 2025 tokenomics upgrade — because it’s a big deal, especially if you care about DeFi, staking, or long-term sustainability.
They made two major changes that affect how $GLMR moves onchain.
X. All transaction fees are now burned
Before this update, when you paid a transaction fee on Moonbeam:
➠80% of it got burned (removed from supply)
➠20% went to the Treasury
Now? XXX% of every transaction fee is burned.
This means every time someone uses the network, GLMR gets permanently removed from circulation — creating deflation pressure over time.
Why is this good? Because it rewards people who actually use the chain and long-term holders. Less supply = more value per token (as long as demand holds).
And it also simplifies the system — no more split logic. Devs and analysts can easily track what’s happening with fees.
X. Inflation is rebalanced — not increased
Moonbeam still has an annual inflation rate of around 5%. That didn’t change. What changed is where part of that inflation goes.
They’ve now directed XX% of the inflation meant for parachain bonding into the Treasury instead.
That means:
The Treasury has more consistent funding for grants, bounties, integrations, etc.
The parachain bond still grows, just more slowly
And no new inflation is added — just smarter distribution
Basically, it’s a shift toward long-term funding stability without touching user rewards.
X. What didn’t change
This is important too. Even with all these changes:
Collators and delegators still earn their staking rewards as usual
The X% network inflation target stays the same
Orbiter logic remains unchanged
So for stakers and node operators, nothing breaks or gets reduced.
So what does this all mean?
➩GLMR gets more scarce as usage increases
➩Builders get more stable funding
➩Stakers keep earning as before
➩And the whole system is easier to understand and track
It’s a smart move. simplifying the mechanics while setting @MoonbeamNetwork up for stronger, more transparent growth.
