The largest decentralized exchange aggregator of Solana, Jupiter, has decided to stop all community voices and to keep his governance treasury sealed next year until 2027, referring to community burnout and a need to prioritize building new products.
The relocation temporarily eliminates one of the most important tools for the native token of Jupiter, Jup, who drives management proposals and decisions within the Jupiter DAO.
Voice activities are put on hold of at least the end of 2025, according to a statement shared by team member Kash Dhanda.
He wrote:
“One thing has recently become clear: the current DAO structure does not work as intended. We hear the complaints. We see the breakdown in confidence. We feel the eternal Fud cycle that grows with every voice.”
The explanation added that the team is planning to eliminate energy from frequent management votes and to strengthen the product suite and market position of the project.
The governance break is because Jupiter’s Dex remains a major player on Solana, with more than $ 2.2 billion on the platform and daily costs on average $ 1.6 million. It treats more than 80,000 tokens waps every day and serves more than 18,000 daily active traders.
However, the Jupiter aggregator has lost the momentum in recent months, whereby user traffic drops by a maximum of 60% and competitors such as Pumpswap dominate the niche of meme coin, now good for a majority of that trade volume on Solana.
Treasury closed until 2027
According to the new plan, the DAO’s Fund, internally known as the litter box Trustm, will remain inaccessible for new editions or budget proposals for the next two years.
The income from setting up services such as Jupsol continues to feed the treasury, but fresh Jup minting for working groups and governance rewards has been suspended.
Regular expansion is still available for token holders, with around 50 million Jup reserved for continuous incentives. Apart from a coming 700 million token distribution, part of the final phase of the Jupuary AirDrop, no extra Jup emissions are planned.
The team expects the break in governance solutions to help reduce sales pressure on the token, which recently levied almost annual lows of around $ 0.40.
A redesigned board structure will be introduced in 2026, aimed at tackling disputes from the past and streamlining decision -making before the Treasury completely reopens the following year.
