- A referendum was executed on December 12, 2022, to lower the `min_untrusted_score` in Kusama.
- This change was made to address a mass slashing incident.
- The new `min_untrusted_score` was calculated by averaging the last 30 election scores and halving them.
- The proposal updated the minimum untrusted score to more sensible and secure values.
- The change ensures that weak election solutions are not accepted by the network.
- This helps maintain the security and stability of the Kusama network.
