The proposal, upgrading Polkadot Runtime to v9050, is up for vote. Release notes, runtime changes and hash can be found HERE. This release resolves the scaling issues we are seeing on Polkadot Network with staking, introducing hard limits on the number of nominators on chain: which is configurable with governance.
