Genesis configuration for the Authors pallet.

Provides the initial runtime parameters governing author lifecycle, funding, and reward/penalty mechanics at chain genesis.

These values define the baseline operational rules before any on-chain authors are enrolled or any activity occurs.

Fields

min_collateral: AuthorAsset<T>

Minimum collateral an author must hold to participate. Ensures skin-in-the-game and commitment to the network. Must not be set to zero, to avoid no-commitment failures.

max_exposure: AuthorAsset<T>

Maximum allowed exposure of a funding/backing operation instance. Limits systemic risk from overly funded or leveraged participants.

This is ambiguous in pool and index contexts as it only represents how much the backer is willing to commit at a transaction, not specific to what scheme.

min_fund: AuthorAsset<T>

Minimum funding required of a funding/backing operation instance. Guarantees sufficient community support before an author can participate. Must not be set to zero, to avoid zero-commitment failures.

This is ambiguous in pool and index contexts as it only represents how much the backer is willing to commit at a transaction, not specific to what scheme.

probation_period: BlockNumberFor<T>

Number of blocks newly enrolled or demoted authors must spend in probation before achieving permanent status. Enforces behavioral observation and prevents immediate promotion.

reduce_probation_by: BlockNumberFor<T>

Number of blocks to reduce an author’s risk period when positive behavior is observed. Facilitates promotion and rewards accountability.

increase_probation_by: BlockNumberFor<T>

Number of blocks to extend an author’s risk period when unsafe behavior is detected. Enforces accountability and ensures that authors under observation remain under supervision.

rewards_buffer: BlockNumberFor<T>

Number of blocks to delay reward finalization. Ensures orderly processing and temporal separation of reward events.

penalties_buffer: BlockNumberFor<T>

Number of blocks to delay penalty finalization. Allows authors to react or remediate before penalties are enforced.

max_elected: u32

Maximum number of authors that can be elected in a single election round. If force_max_elected is true, the elected list will be truncated to this limit.

min_elected: u32

Minimum number of authors required to complete a valid election round. Ensures that elections maintain a minimum quorum of participants.

force_max_elected: bool

Whether to strictly enforce the max_elected limit.

• true: Forcefully truncate elected authors to max_elected.
• false: Attempt to store all elected candidates.
