Introduction:
This document aims to provide transparency to the Avail community concerning upcoming and executed network changes. The Technical Committee (TC) has thoroughly assessed the proposed DA fee changes for the Avail mainnet. After carefully considering their effectiveness, potential impact, execution parameters, and security implications, the TC has reached a majority consensus of 5/7.
Proposed / Executed Changes:
The proposal was introduced and discussed in the community through AIP 3 on the Avail forum. Submitted by the Fee Pricing Committee (FPC), which is responsible for setting and recommending data submission fees on the network, the proposal aims to reduce the DA transaction weight fee by a factor of 10.
Code Modifications:
None
Potential Merits to the Network:
The primary security consideration of lowering the data posting fees is the risk of additional spam. Based on testing on the Turing, the committee believes that the risk of spam is minimal at the recommended fee levels.
