Summary:
Change parameter network.validators.tendermint.number
to 17. The parameter network.validators.multisig.numberOfSigners
would remain untouched and stay at 15.
Rationale:
This proposal is similar to the last expansion proposal available here .
The rationale shared here is still valid - the aim is to keep expanding to 20-25 validators over the next 3-6 months.
Closing and enactment is set for 3rd January 2024 to avoid the need for any “surprises” over Christmas.
