Jito proposes using JTX revenue to buy back and burn JTO through at least Q4 2027
Jito has unveiled governance proposal JIP-38, setting out a hard value-capture rule for revenue tied to its newly launched trading platform, JTX. Under the plan, all of the DAO’s share of JTX revenue — defined as 80% of platform fees — would be used for programmatic open-market buybacks of JTO, with all purchased tokens permanently burned. The commitment would run from JTX’s launch through at least the fourth quarter of 2027, when token holders would revisit the arrangement through governance. The proposal also formalizes a broader token-centric revenue framework. Jito said 20% of JTX fees would be retained for platform reinvestment and development, while other major network revenue streams, including JitoSOL-related fees, BAM income and Block Engine revenue, would flow to the DAO and remain subject to JTO holder votes. The move comes as Jito expands from core Solana infrastructure into trading applications and as JitoSOL’s staked SOL has fallen from 18 million in June 2025 to below 10 million, according to the project’s website cited in the source article.
