Snowbridge: Update Bridge Pricing Parameters to Lower Transfer Fees

inWhitelisted Caller
a year ago

When Snowbridge was launched the transfer fees were calculated based on the following parameters which reflected market conditions at the time:

  • Worst Case Gas price: 60 Gwei
  • ETH:DOT exchange rate: 1:450

This resulted in price in the following prices: 

  • 11.456568 DOT to transfer from Polkadot to Ethereum.
  • 0.000399 ETH to transfer from Ethereum to Polkadot.

This proposal will change the pricing parameters to:

  • Worst Case Gas price: 25 Gwei
  • ETH:DOT exchange rate: 1:566

Resulting in the following fees:

  • 6.1278015332 DOT to transfer from Polkadot to Ethereum.
  • 0.000317 ETH to transfer from Ethereum to Polkadot.

Old Pricing Params:

setPricingParameters({
    exchangeRate: 2,222,222,222,222,222
    rewards: {
        local: 100,000,000
        remote: 250,000,000,000,000
    }
    feePerGas: 60,000,000,000
    multiplier: 1,333,333,333,333,333,333
})

New Pricing Params:

setPricingParameters({
    exchangeRate: 1,766,784,452,296,820
    rewards: {
        local: 100,000,000
        remote: 250,000,000,000,000
    }
    feePerGas: 25,000,000,000
    multiplier: 1,333,333,333,333,333,333
})

Right now it's 11.4 DOT per transfer from Assethub to ethereum, lets get this lowered!

The first xcm message is setting the pricing parameters on the bridge hub. But the second message is setting a storage item on AssetHub. Can you please explain which storage item you are setting and why?
