According to Odaily, the anonymous creator of Solana Ore's blockchain mining project, Hardhat Chad, has announced the progress of ORE v2. The maximum total supply of ore will be set at 21 million. This decision was made after considering extensive community feedback, and the maximum supply will be introduced in the second release contract. This restriction will offer a fixed level of scarcity of the ore and provide stronger protection from inflation for token holders.

The team is currently in the final stages of reviewing the Release 2 contract and is preparing to release the client software. Chad added that a full announcement detailing all the major changes will be made soon, allowing enough time to prepare before the Release 2 contract goes into effect.
