Fixed 2.5%. | 1_000_000
(100%) | 100_000
(10%) | | Can we have a better “formula” for the recommended slashing amount? |
| SubgraphService | minimumProvisionTokens - Minimum amount of tokens required to create a provision for the SubgraphService. | 100_000 | 100_000 | 100_000 | setMinimumProvisionTokens() | |
| SubgraphService | maximumDelegationRatio - Multiplier for how much delegation the service provider can effectively use. | 16 | 16 | 16 | setDelegationRatio() | |
| SubgraphService | stakeToFeesRatio - Locked stake multiplier for query fee collection. | N/A | 2 | 10 | setStakeToFeesRatio() | GIP-0051 suggests an average stake to query fee rebates for indexers of 1000 in 2022.
GIP-0068 Appendix A suggest an equivalent “stake to fees ratio” in the current protocol of ~200 as of January 2025 and ~150 as of Sept 2025.
Not apples to apples comparison, but there is a trend as total stake in the protocol goes down which the increase in query fee volume does not compensate for.
Considering this we think a stakeToFeesRatio=10 is a safe starting point being one order of magnitude smaller than the “current best estimate”. |
