NEAR Protocol shifts from developer gas rebates to protocol-level fee burns.
In a recent governance decision, NEAR Protocol voted to eliminate its 30% gas fee rebate for developers, redirecting all execution fees to a protocol-level burn mechanism. This change, formalized as proposal HSP-027, is set to take effect with the nearcore v2.14 update in August 2026. The move aims to simplify the network's tokenomics and encourage new monetization models for developers.
