Simple Summary

Increase the fees on commodities to 30 bp in order to make front-running less likely.

Abstract

As per sip-56 each synth can now have its own fee levels. This SCCP suggest to raise the fees on commodity synths back to 30 bp.

Motivation

Fees were configured recently in sccp-24 however analysis of the data showed that front-running opportunities were more accessible. Increasing fees to 30 bp, should decrease the chance of front-running until sip-52 is implemented.
