<p>Akash Network is voting on the Burn-Mint Equilibrium (BME) proposal from March 7-14, 2026. This proposal aims to change AKT's economics by permanently burning every AKT used for deploying workloads, linking token supply to compute demand. The upgrade, scheduled for March 23 at 14:00 UTC, will also introduce WASM smart contracts for faster feature iteration. If approved, the burn mechanism could reduce net issuance and improve AKT's supply/demand profile; if rejected, current tokenomics will remain unchanged.</p>

- Akash governance is currently voting on the Burn-Mint Equilibrium (BME) proposal, which aims to permanently burn AKT tokens used for network workloads.  
- The upgrade is planned for March 23 at 14:00 UTC and will introduce WASM smart contracts for faster feature iterations.  
- If approved, the burn mechanism could significantly lower net issuance and enhance AKT's supply/demand profile, while rejection would maintain the existing tokenomics.
