CoW Protocol initiates a proposal to adjust computing node rewards and seeks to increase budget support by 8 million COW

CoW Protocol initiated a computing node reward adjustment proposal in Snapshot. The protocol currently has 18 running computing nodes (Solver), competitively providing the best solution for batch auctions running in seconds, and also serving as a price estimator. In response to the recent increase in protocol order traffic, the proposal recommends adjusting the quote reward for each order from 9 COW to 6 COW and introducing a 0.0006 ETH cap for each quote reward. In addition, in view of the increase in COW price relative to ETH, the proposal proposes to increase the upper limit of performance rewards for each settlement from 0.01 ETH to 0.012 ETH to incentivize computing nodes to optimize execution effects. The proposal adjusts the weekly budget for computing node competition, reducing it from 306,307 COW to 250,000 COW. The absolute upper limit for consistency rewards is 6 ETH. The total budget target for weekly rewards is 300,000 COW, and requests the DAO to provide support of 8 million COW. The adjustment is expected to last for 6 months.
