I’ve spent years sharpening my hatred of inflation on the whetstone of central banker idiocy- because in fiat world, it’s legalized theft. A silent vampire that feeds on purchasing power and funds things no one asked for. My contempt runs deep and it bleeds monthly. But this ain’t that. Flare’s inflation isn’t funding wars, government bloat, or bridges to nowhere. It’s doing one thing: paying the people who keep the lights on. The validators who secure blocks. The data providers who keep feeds honest. The builders laying rails for everything that’s coming. It’s not theft. It’s function. And here’s the part that made my brain short circuit just a little… as of writing this, $FLR pumped XX% on the X day. That one green candle offset EIGHT YEARS of X% annual inflation. Gone. Poof. Like it never happened. Suddenly that “dilution” starts looking like background noise in the face of real momentum. Let’s break it down. Flare’s monthly airdrops end in January 2026. After that, we shift into the long-term model: a capped X% annual inflation rate on circulating supply. From there, it trends down as the network matures and fees take over. That’s not a promise. That’s protocol. And no, I still don’t love inflation. I’ll never throw a party for token issuance. But when it’s transparent, targeted, and capped? When it bootstraps the very behavior that keeps a decentralized system alive? Even I can admit...groan...it’s starting to make sense. Because in crypto, a token can 10x or 100x in a year. And in that context, X% is about as threatening as a wet paper towel. The game is different here. So no, this isn’t some cope post. This is the moment I realized inflation, in the right system, isn’t necessarily a flaw. It’s fuel.
