- It will swap 2.222 H2O every 22 blocks.
- The slippage limit is 1.5%.

Add tBTC to Omnipool

vote NAY

- A vote is happening about some assets: tBTC, USDT, USDC, wstETH, LINK, SKY, and LDO.
- These assets are on Snowbridge and need to be "touched."
- "Touching" means making sure the assets can be used because there's a limit to how many assets an account can hold.
- The limit is 64, and the account is full, so "touching" helps add more.
- This is done by sending a message from Hydration to Asset Hub.
- It's needed to send these assets to Hydration.
- Code for this is in a special place on GitHub.

"Touch" Snowbridge assets 👀

- Update information for Chainlink (LINK), Sky (SKY), Lido (LDO), and Wrapped Staked ETH (wstETH).
- Add LINK, SKY, LDO, and wstETH as options to pay fees.
- These assets are already registered but need more details added.

Update asset registry for LINK, SKY, LDO & wstETH

Remove inactive collator

- The Treasury got `~55,000` H2O (worth `~$1.75M`) from referendum #10.
- A proposal suggests using Hydration DCA to buy HDX in small steps.
- First step: Swap `10,000` H2O for HDX.
- Each trade: `2.222` H2O every `22` blocks.
- Slippage limit: `1.5%`.
- Max retries: `9`.
- Expected to last `~11` days.
- More steps like this may follow.

Withdraw POL BTC 2-Pool shares & launch iBTC & WBTC trading in Omnipool

Runtime upgrade to v34

- This proposal is about changing how we handle Bitcoin (BTC) products in the Omnipool.
- It wants to stop trading and adding new shares for a specific pool (2-Pool).
- It will remove a specific BTC position (#5690) from the Omnipool and move it to the Treasury.
- It will also take out all BTC shares from the stablepool, based on the current ratio of WBTC and iBTC.
- After that, it will allow trading of WBTC and iBTC directly in the Omnipool at their market prices.
- This needs to happen quickly because waiting too long could change prices and amounts.
- Existing users can still take out their money and leave the farms.

On-chain remark: BTC POL next steps

- A proposal suggests giving `197,084,881` HDX to HDX stakers over 25 weeks.
- This is to celebrate the start of 2025.
- The Treasury has collected this HDX from 8 DCA schedules using DAI, H2O, and iBTC.
- `42,615,220` HDX is already set aside for stakers.
- The remaining `154,469,661` HDX has no specific use yet.
- This could increase the HDX staking APR by about `27.9%`.
- The total HDX staking APR could be over `30%` for about 6 months.

25 weeks of HDX buyback boosted staking rewards

- The proposal updates the asset registry for several cryptocurrencies like tBTC, USDC, USDT, and KSM.
- It removes "Polkadot Asset Hub" from USDC and USDT to avoid confusion.
- Adds new versions of USDC and USDT from Moonbeam wormhole and Snowbridge.
- Makes tBTC, USDC, USDT, and KSM usable for paying fees.
- Changes names to clearly show which assets are native to Polkadot and which are bridged from other systems.

Update asset registry for multiple assets

- A proposal wants to move `54,947` vDOT and `14,552,079` HDX to Polkadot Hydration farms.  
- This will help the farms run for 1 more month.  
- The goal is to give time for changes in liquidity, including new stablepools.  
- The funds come from earlier approved plans and won’t cost extra.  
- Links to past phases (1, 2, 3a) are provided for more details.  
- This will reduce the amount given in phase 4.
