Staking: set min validator bond to 10K DOT
Whitelisted by https://collectives.subsquare.io/fellowship/referenda/527
What
As communicated in the forum post here , we propose a MinValidatorBond (minimum self stake) of 10k DOT to be enforced to secure the network on Polkadot AssetHub.
The current value of MinValidatorBond is 0.
After the 10k DOT min self-stake is enacted, new validators must be compliant with the new requirement.
set_staking_configs to 10k DOT does not kick existing validators but pre-existing under-bonded validators will face significant risk of chilling.
This change, and having all active validators comply with the minimum self-stake, is a mandatory pre-requirement before being able to make nominators unslashable and fast-unbondable.
Snapshot of validators' current self stake here.

Proposal Passed
Looking forward to it. AYE
Given the current lack of a clearly communicated and updated roadmap, and the absence of meaningful public alignment or communication from core development teams, it is not possible to reasonably evaluate the long-term direction or expected impact of new funding proposals within Polkadot governance.
In this context, allocating additional treasury resources becomes speculative rather than strategic, as there is insufficient transparency regarding priorities, execution timelines, and overall ecosystem direction.
Until a coherent and publicly articulated roadmap is provided, accompanied by consistent technical and strategic communication from core contributors, I do not consider it responsible to approve further expenditures.
Therefore, as a default position under the current conditions, my vote will be NAY on all proposals.
