Radix Opens May 9–19 Consultation on 2.4B XRD Reserve Proposal

Radix Foundation Proposes Major Tokenomics Overhaul: $2.4B XRD Reserve Reallocation, Supply Reduction, and Community Vote Set for May 2025

  • Radix Foundation to hold a community consultation on repurposing its $2.4 billion XRD stablecoin reserve from May 9–19, 2025.
  • Proposal includes allocating 1 billion XRD for incentives, 1 billion XRD for a Growth Fund, and reducing the token’s maximum supply by about 6 billion XRD.
  • Token holder voting will use off-Ledger ROLA proofs, with results weighted by XRD held and published with cryptographic verification.

The Radix Foundation has announced it will conduct a community consultation from May 9 to May 19, 2025, inviting XRD token holders to provide feedback on a major shift in token economics. The consultation focuses on how to reallocate the foundation’s $2.4 billion XRD stablecoin reserve, aiming to accelerate adoption of the Radix ecosystem.

According to the Radix Foundation, the proposed changes include assigning 1 billion XRD to long-term incentives to grow usage and liquidity, and another 1 billion XRD to a Growth Fund aimed at supporting ecosystem initiatives such as new listings and venture capital partnerships. The plan also reduces XRD’s maximum supply by approximately 6 billion, shortening its emission schedule by 20 years. Around 400 million XRD will remain in reserve for potential future use or burning.

Participants in the consultation will use a dedicated dApp to express their support or opposition. Voting will use Radix Off-Ledger Authentication (ROLA) proofs, which allow token holders to securely verify their input without making on-chain transactions. According to the Foundation, “Input will be weighted based on the time-weighted average amount of XRD or equivalents held by each participant during the consultation period.”

The final results will be published after the consultation and include a tally of overall sentiment, cryptographic proof of each account’s vote, and the corresponding vote weighting. The Radix Foundation and any related entities controlling over 1 billion XRD will not participate, as outlined in the plan. This is designed to ensure a fair and representative outcome.

ROLA technology enables secure signaling using digital signatures, which are verified off-chain and do not require transaction fees or add unnecessary data to the blockchain ledger. Details on the consultation process and ROLA can be found at the official documentation.

The Foundation stated that more information and access to the voting dApp will be provided ahead of the consultation start date. The aim is to gather extensive community input before moving forward with the revised tokenomics strategy. Additional background and the full proposal are available via the Radix announcement.
