Solana is currently reducing rent by 90% in five phases, and the first phase is already live.
Solana has also encouraged program developers to provide a way for users to reclaim excess lamports from program-owned accounts:

Many OpenBook V1 markets were created under the previous rent requirements, so their market accounts may now hold SOL above the current rent-exempt minimum.
I’m not proposing to close the markets.
Instead, could OpenBook V1 add a reclaim instruction that allows the original Market ID creator to withdraw only the excess SOL above the current rent-exempt minimum, while keeping the market fully active?
This could allow historical OpenBook V1 market creators to recover SOL that is no longer required as rent.
