- The total cost is $112,608, which is less than before.

Delay Demo #2 Treasury Guardian

- Kusama started with 10 million KSM tokens.
- Now there are over 17 million tokens.
- Too many new tokens are made, which lowers the value.
- About half of new tokens are sold right away.
- This proposal wants to limit the total to 21 million KSM.
- It would cut new tokens by 55% in 2025, then 15% less every two years.
- This helps Kusama be more like Bitcoin, with a fixed supply.
- The goal is to make Kusama stronger and fairer for everyone.

- It would help apps and websites work better with these coins.
- A vote is needed to make this happen.
- People are asking for support to start the voting process.

Web3 Without Barriers: Virto Connect

- 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.

- Old channels will keep the old limit of 1,000 messages.
- Special channels can still ask for a higher limit if needed.
