February 14 News, the U.S. cryptocurrency regulatory system is accelerating the integration of industry-leading technical talent. Anatoly Yakovenko, the founder of the high-speed blockchain Solana, was recently selected for the newly established Innovation Advisory Committee of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), becoming one of the few blockchain protocol designers directly involved in federal policy discussions. This appointment indicates that U.S. regulators are shifting from an “external review” approach to a new path of “collaborating with developers to set rules.” The Innovation Advisory Committee is composed of 35 members, focusing on cutting-edge issues in blockchain infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and digital asset markets, and providing regulatory agencies with advice on technology and market trends. The committee is led by Michael S. Selig, with the goal of helping the U.S. market adapt more efficiently to the rapidly evolving fintech environment. Yakovenko’s practical experience in low-latency, high-throughput network architecture is seen as offering a realistic perspective for derivatives settlement, on-chain transparency, and system stability assessment.

On February 14th, the important Solana ecosystem project Jupiter submitted a key proposal to its DAO, planning to reduce the net token issuance of JUP to "near zero" to alleviate market concerns about inflation and selling pressure, and to strengthen the long-term value support of the token. The plan has entered the community voting stage, and the final result will be decided by token holders. According to the proposal, the team will begin to cut down on new supply from three main sources. First, all token releases from the team reserve will be indefinitely suspended, with unreleased tokens directly absorbed by the treasury and no longer entering the secondary market. Second, the originally scheduled "Jupuary" airdrop will be postponed; approximately 700 million tokens from this round will be temporarily returned to a multi-signature wallet controlled by the community, with snapshots of eligible users still retained for future distribution. Third, tokens unlocked related to Mercurial will be accelerated in release but will be repurchased by the treasury to offset potential selling.
