- This proposal sets up Polkadot validator staking using SLP V2.
- It does 3 steps using cross-chain messages.
- Step 1: Bond tokens to become a validator.
- Step 2: Validate to start earning rewards.
- Step 3: Set special keys for the validator.

Executed

Initialize Polkadot Validator via SLP V2

Delegate 100,100 DOT: derivative addr0 → addr3, for validator self-bond

Add SLP V2 DOT delegator and whitelist for Polkadot Validator

- Bifrost Polkadot runtime is 1.993 MB big
- It was compressed by 81.63%
- Version is v0.25.0 to v0.25.2
- Fixed reward calculation for users
- Added migration to version 2
- Removed Kusama parachain staking
- Updated software dependencies

Upgrade Bifrost-polkadot to Runtime 0.25.2

Perform Rebond & Unbond to Refresh Unbond Queue

Bifrost wants to make vDOT free to use.
- No fee to make vDOT.
- No fee to turn vDOT back to DOT.
- No fee taken from rewards.
- This makes vDOT the best DOT token to hold.
- Bifrost will get money from running validators instead.
- Fees can come back later if needed.

Make vDOT a Zero-Fee Liquid Staking Token

Members Changes

Farming adjustment proposal has two parts. Part one changes reward amounts for farm pools. Part two sends 38,950 BNC from Treasury to Bifrost Foundation.

Farming Adjustments and Charge - July-Aug 2026

Bifrost Treasury is sending 115,000 BNC to a Buyback Pool. This is the third batch of funding to buy back bbBNC. The reward notification system now works automatically, so only the transfer is needed.

Deposit bbBNC Rewards to Buyback Pool (Treasury-subsidized, 3rd Batch)

[Senior Fellows] Referendum #529-Unpause Ismp.handle_unsigned

Bifrost Polkadot proposes to register new Hyperbridge tokens on BSC, Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Optimism. This will allow those tokens to move between networks. A whitelist will allow only specific token contract addresses to use the Hyperbridge system.

[Senior Fellows] Referendum #528-Register New Hyperbridge Fungible Tokens and Configure Whitelist on Bifrost Polkadot

Renew Collator Incentive - 6 months

[Senior Fellows] update slpv2 whitelist call

[Senior Fellows] update slpv2 operator

TimedOut

[Senior Fellows] Set slpv2 whitelist call

This proposal removes all current oracle members to keep the system safe. No one can send new price updates until the team checks and adds members back. Old prices stay saved and can still be used.

[Senior Experts] Referendum #521-Temporarily Disable Oracle Feeds by Resetting Oracle Membership

Pause add_delegator extrinsic

- This proposal has two parts for managing Bifrost's money safely.
- First, it puts limits on large transfers of vToken and BNC coming into the network.
- Any transfer that is too big or too frequent will be held for about 24 hours before being released.
- Only the vToken ReadyPool account is allowed to skip these limits.
- Second, it converts some collected vTokens into USDT every hour to reduce price risk.
- This USDT is then used for fees and buybacks in a stable way.
- Small swaps are done because some token pairs have shallow pools.

RiskControl Inbound Thresholds + Operational Fee USDT Conversion

- Bifrost Polkadot runtime size is around 2 MB (1.996 MB).
- Compressed size is 81.61% smaller.
- Adds optimization for vtoken voting.
- Fixes flexible fee issue.
- Removes ethereum staking from SLPv2.
- Adds cross-chain risk controls.
- Changes reward and fee sharing rules.
- Updates and fixes many other small bugs.

Upgrade Bifrost-polkadot to Runtime 0.25.0
