closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/158. partially addresses https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/226. Instead of fragile calculation of current balance by looking at `free balance - ED`, Nomination Pool now freezes ED in the pool reward account to restrict an account from going below minimum balance. This also has a nice side effect that if ED changes, we know how much is the imbalance in ED frozen in the pool and the current required ED. A pool operator can diligently top up the pool with the deficit in ED or vice versa, withdraw the excess they transferred to the pool. ## Notable changes - New call `adjust_pool_deposit`: Allows to top up the deficit or withdraw the excess deposited funds to the pool. - Uses Fungible trait (instead of Currency trait). Since NP was not doing any locking/reserving previously, no migration is needed for this. - One time migration of freezing ED from each of the existing pools (not very PoV friendly but fine for relay chain).
NOTE: We have recently made significant changes to our repository structure. In order to streamline our development process and foster better contributions, we have merged three separate repositories Cumulus, Substrate and Polkadot into this repository. Read more about the changes here.
Polkadot SDK
The Polkadot SDK repository provides all the resources needed to start building on the Polkadot network, a multi-chain blockchain platform that enables different blockchains to interoperate and share information in a secure and scalable way. The Polkadot SDK comprises three main pieces of software:
Polkadot
Implementation of a node for the https://polkadot.network in Rust, using the Substrate framework. This directory
currently contains runtimes for the Polkadot, Kusama, Westend, and Rococo networks. In the future, these will be
relocated to the runtimes repository.
Substrate
Substrate is the primary blockchain SDK used by developers to create the parachains that make up the Polkadot network. Additionally, it allows for the development of self-sovereign blockchains that operate completely independently of Polkadot.
Cumulus
Cumulus is a set of tools for writing Substrate-based Polkadot parachains.
