Community Vote and Results

The on-chain vote, held between October 28 – 31, 2025, concluded with 117,169,804 votes in favor and none against. This overwhelming result confirms broad consensus and strong community support for the update proposed by Ontology’s node operators.

Jun Li, the founder of Ontology, emphasized how the update aligns with the project’s long-term vision:

“This decision puts ONG on a sustainable trajectory. With an 800 million supply cap, a permanent liquidity lock, and a predictable emission model, Ontology is building a more stable ecosystem for both developers and investors.”

The New Economic Model: Reduced Supply, Strengthened Liquidity

The revised tokenomics introduces a maximum supply of 800 million ONG and a permanent liquidity lock worth 100 million ONG — designed to protect value and ensure continuous liquidity.

Key changes include:

• Total Supply: reduced from 1 billion to 800 million ONG.
• Locked Liquidity: 100 million ONG worth of ONT–ONG assets permanently locked.
• Emission Distribution: 80 % for staking rewards, 20 % for ecosystem liquidity.
• Release Period: extended from 18 to 19 years, maintaining a fixed emission rate of 1 ONG per second.

These updates will stabilize both supply dynamics and long-term staking rewards, while the liquidity lock permanently removes assets from circulation — creating a more resilient economic foundation against supply shocks.

Supply Reduction and Burn Mechanism

Under the new model:

• 200 million ONG will be burned, directly reducing total supply.
• An additional 100 million ONG will be permanently locked in liquidity pools.

These steps significantly limit circulating supply, enhancing ONG’s value preservation potential over time.

Why This Matters

This update reshapes not only Ontology’s economic landscape but also its strategic future:

• A limited supply reinforces value discipline.
• A liquidity lock supports price stability.
• A predictable emission model boosts investor confidence.

In the evolving Web3 landscape, sustainable and stable token economies are becoming increasingly critical.
Ontology’s move positions it as a leading infrastructure for decentralized identity (DID), privacy protection, and secure data management.
Jun Li noted that these changes will also strengthen Ontology’s ecosystem products, including ONT ID, ONTO Wallet, and Orange Protocol.

Network Upgrade Timeline

Ontology will implement the new tokenomics through a two-phase network upgrade:

• 7.0 ( November 27, 2025 ): Consensus and gas-limit optimizations.
• 0.0 ( December 1, 2025 ): Official activation of the new ONG tokenomics and updated consensus protocol.

Users and stakers will not need to take any manual action — the transition will be fully automatic and seamless.
