CIP113 |
Increase the PoS lock/unlock/retire periods back to the values before CIP113.
The PoS lock/unlock/retire period was halved after CIP113 because the round time was halved. This CIP intends to restore the original period length, which is 13 days for locking, 1 day for unlocking, and 3 hours for force retiring, by doubling the number of rounds in a PoS epoch and the number of views for locking/unlocking.
The current 1.5h force retire time is too short for node operators. And changing the lock/unlock/retire time is not intended for CIP113.
The number of rounds in a PoS epoch is changed from 60 to 120, so the time for a PoS epoch is changed back to the original value before CIP113. And the number of epochs needed for force retiring remains 3 continous PoS epochs, so the force retire time is also restored.
The number of views for PoS stake locking and unlocking is doubled after this CIP, which becomes 37440 views for locking and 2880 views for unlocking.
It's possible that a simple restart for upgrading the node makes it retire. A 3h period is more user-friendly and does not affect the network safety.
This is spec breaking.
