This is a follow-up proposal on what was intended to be covered by the Kusama Infrastructure Maintenance Bounty Program.
This proposal is to retroactively cover generated costs by Parasnaps for the last 8 months.
Discussion round
After a week of discussion round we decided to move forward with the proposal, please find the discussion here.
Context:
Parasnaps was built out of the necessity to have a high-throughput snapshot solution to be able to take fast actions. Existing snapshots solution took around ~40 minutes to Download and our solution allowed to restore a validator in a couple of minutes.
Central Topic:
Parasnaps was launched in February 2022, this proposal aims to cover the costs and work generated by Parasnaps from August 2022 until its decommissioning in March 2023
Future Proposals:
With warp sync in its current state, we believe Parasnaps is no longer required and has been decommissioned in March 2023.
