- They can't do it themselves because the parachain is locked and not running.
- The parachain can't send the message needed to deregister itself.
- The only way to deregister it is through Kusama Governance.

- The owner's account is CmxJEdEniSV6hGWoKfHWLR6h4A1dh5gD1vgzmD12osJvGsk.

Preparing

- Polkadot wants to change a rule for new communication channels between blockchains.
- Currently, up to 1,000 messages can wait in line on the main relay chain.
- The proposal is to lower this number to 25 messages for new channels.
- This helps keep things running smoothly and prevents big delays.
- If a receiving blockchain is stuck, fewer waiting messages means less stress when it starts again.
- Old channels will keep the old limit of 1,000 messages.
- Special channels can still ask for a higher limit if needed.

- Kusama wants to upgrade to JAM but it's too expensive alone  
- Solution: Share costs with Polkadot using the same JAM system  
- Both KSM and DOT tokens would work together  
- Saves money by splitting security costs  
- Makes both networks stronger together  
- Needs both communities to agree  
- Could set example for future shared systems

Kusama JAM Upgrade: Option B - Full power and Polkadot friendly

- Kusama wants a special JAM upgrade that fits its small economy.  
- It will use fewer computer cores (32 vs. Polkadot's 341).  
- Blocks will be faster (1-second finality).  
- KSM token will be used for payments and security.  
- Costs will be much lower (~2.4% inflation).  
- Good for fast apps but has lower data capacity.  
- Keeps Kusama independent and experimental.  
- Focuses on speed-sensitive projects.

Kusama JAM Upgrade: Option A - Lightweight and independent

- The referendum is about testing a new tool called Treasury Guardian.
