Don’t Forget to Renew Your Coretime

In the latest round of Coretime sales, Mythos and Xcavate did not purchase their slot leases during the renewal period. Subsequently, a rogue activist, seeking numerous changes to the way Coretime sales are handled, bought all available cores on the free market. Without intervention, Mythos and Xcavate will soon be unable to produce blocks. Bastian Kocher (Parity) has initiated Whitelisted Caller Referendum 1536 to open and assign cores to Mythos and Xcavate for a period of approximately two months. In the meantime, Basti has opened RFC-142 to discuss potential solutions to balance the current market dynamics and prevent future exploitation.

PoKe-ing the Treasury to Buy a Little More Time

The PoKe BD team, originally funded by a Decentralized Futures grant, has requested 290K USDT from the Polkadot Treasury for six months of continued operations. Agreements have been signed for opportunities spanning multiple continents and verticals such as government, healthcare, energy, and defense are in advanced stages of negotiation. To take these projects forward, the BD team has expressed that 6 months of key accounting and project management would be necessary. The requested amount would cover salaries, travel, legal, and accounting expenses.

A Predictable Problem

Hydration Whitelisted Caller Referendum 62 proposes to raise DOT supply cap from 1.2M to 5M and borrow cap from 0.5M to 1M. This will fast-track the raising of money market caps for DOT, and more quickly accommodate increased demand from the launch of gigaDOT.
