Adjusting the current inflation model to sustain Treasury inflow

Hi Jonas - in my opinion this is a conversation that should be had when:

  • Opengov has been running for a while, we’ve gone through the painful learning of approving every treasury spend, realising it’s unsustainable and reassessing what should and shouldnt be funded from the treasury - thus identifying the “real” treasury run-rate
  • “Polkadot 2.0” is live - as the model pivots towards one where blocks are “paid for” by DOT, these DOT go to the treasury and may more than compensate for any perceived defecit in treasury fill from inflation

So TLDR we need more data on the new treasury spend rate under opengov and the “to be” treasury income after core-time sales go live
