Simple Summary

This SCCP proposes to implement the following updates with regards to the staleness tolerance:

  • Increase it for liquidations, deposits and withdrawals on the ETH and BTC perp markets to 1 hour, from 1 minute.
  • Increase it for the all spot operations on the cbBTC, cbETH and wstETH synths to 1 day from 1 minute.
  • Increase it to 1 month from 1 minute for wrapping operations (i.e. cbBTC > scbBTC).

Abstract

The staleness tolerance is the duration of time after a price push, during which a new price update is not required in order to perform a certain contract interaction (like liquidation, deposit, withdrawal).

Motivation

The proposed parameter changes are in light of new tooling put in place that updates prices on a recurrent basis as well as the need to move away from pull based pricing in order to facilitate integrations of synthetix vaults (coming soon).
