### Summary of Proposal

- **Purpose**: Increase the number of people who can nominate in the Polkadot network.
- **Current Issue**: Existing nominators cannot change their intentions due to current limits.
- **Solution**: A pull request will change the logic to allow more people to nominate without affecting current nominators.
- **New Limits**: 
  - Nominator capacity will increase by 2500, making the total 22500.
  - Stake threshold will increase to 40 DOTs.
- **Time-Sensitive**: These changes will be included in the next Polkadot runtime upgrade.
- **Stability**: If too many new nominators join quickly, the stake limit may need to be increased again to keep the system stable.
- **Preimage**: Available [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Pp8mkUkFCkYiauUAe2RXFBhzk5wgulGV/view?usp=sharing).
- **Action**: Please vote on the proposal at your convenience.

Upgrade the nomination limits on Polkadot

Deploy migration runtime

Increase active collator set size to 32

Authorize runtime upgrade to v0.3.8

Increase active collator set size to 28

Increase active collator set size to 24

Authorize runtime upgrade to v0.3.7

Increase active collator set size to 20

- The proposal aimed to increase the active collator set size to 16.
- A runtime upgrade to Zeitgeist v0.3.6 changed the function indices in the parachain-staking pallet.
- Before the upgrade, the function selector for `setTotalSelected` was `0x6e06`.
- After the upgrade, `setBlocksPerRound` took the `0x6e06` selector, and `setTotalSelected` became `0x6e04`.
- The proposal was initially for a simple majority vote to invoke `setTotalSelected`.
- After the upgrade, it mistakenly targeted `setBlocksPerRound`.
- The proposal should be rejected due to this error.

### Summary of DOT Integration on Zeitgeist

- **Purpose**: To register DOT as a foreign asset on Zeitgeist and allow it in pools to improve liquidity.
- **Liquidity Benefit**: DOT has a high market value (around 10,000 times more than ZTG), making it a significant asset for liquidity.
- **Technical Compatibility**: DOT has the same fractional decimal places as ZTG, so it can be used in markets without code adjustments.
- **Testing**: DOT integration was successfully tested on Battery Station, with all parties approving its move to the mainnet.
- **Demo Market**: A prediction market using (fake) DOT as a base asset is available for interaction at [test.staging.zeitgeist.pm/markets/625](https://test.staging.zeitgeist.pm/markets/625).
- **Fees**: When receiving DOT from Polkadot, fees are charged in DOT, calculated as `0.0143120520` times the ZTG fees.
- **Fee Calculation**: The fee ratio is based on the 25-week moving averages of ZTG and DOT prices.

### Summary of Referendum 7 Failure

- **Referendum 7** was passed by the Council and the community.
- The referendum was supposed to be executed after a certain block number.
- The code required the block number to be at least 1, but it was set to 0.
- Due to this error, the referendum failed to execute.
- The code checks if the block number is in the past and returns an error if it is.
- The block number 0 was considered in the past, causing the failure.
- A new proposal is being made to correct this issue and pass the referendum again.

### Summary of Proposed Change

- **Active Collators Determined Every 2 Hours**: The change will set the determination of active collators to occur every 2 hours, instead of every 4 minutes.
- **Reward Calculation and Payouts**: Rewards will be calculated and paid out every 2 hours, reducing the frequency from every 4 minutes.
- **Resource Allocation**: This change will free up resources currently used for these intense operations, allowing more resources for transactions.
- **Bond Decrease and Candidate Set Changes**: Decreasing bonds or leaving the candidate set will now take 4 hours instead of the previous shorter period.
- **Blocks per Round Increase**: Increasing the blocks per round is necessary to expand the active collator set size.
- **Moonriver Example**: The decision to use 2 hours is based on the example of Moonriver, a Kusama parachain that uses a similar system.
