• A new curator team is being proposed for the Public RPC Bounty due to the previous curators not renewing their intent.
• This caused providers to not be paid for services in November and December 2024.
• The new team aims to improve reporting, stakeholder engagement, payouts, SLA reviews, and transparency.
• The proposed curators are Frankywild, Coinstudio, Tim Janssen, Cappex, and Pastaman.
• They have experience managing a similar bounty on Kusama and are working on administrative improvements.
• The Public RPC Bounty provides structured and price-controlled RPC services to the public.
• It replaced individual invoicing with a public tender process based on technical capabilities.
• The bounty has improved RPC service delivery, though some administrative aspects need refinement.
