## Inflation

At the beginning of 2024, Polkadot's annual inflation rate was 10%. In November 2024, it was adjusted to the rate of 8%, with plans for a gradual decrease over time. This change was proposed, voted on, and executed on-chain by OpenGov Ref 1139.

Upon implementation, 8% of the total issuance equated to approximately 120M DOT per year (roughly 10M DOT per month) in inflation, with 15% allocated to the Polkadot treasury and 85% distributed to stakers.

### Bifrost

Value staked peaked in March 2024, lost all of its gain for the year in 2024, only to rebound strongly again in the last 6 weeks and again reach a peak of 90m at the height of the 100k BTC frenzy.
