What this referendum means

What was proposed?

This untitled proposal would have raised the per-pool member ceiling to 50,000 while retaining the raw commission value of 10, but referendum #10 cancelled it for using the wrong track.

Why it mattered

The cancellation shows that the governance origin and track are part of a proposal's legitimacy even when the underlying call may be resubmitted unchanged.

An Aye vote meant…

An Aye vote would have supported the two nomination-pool configuration changes.

A Nay vote meant…

A Nay vote would have opposed those settings.

What happened or is happening

The proposal hash and decoded call are identical to #11. Raw Perbill value 10 equals 0.000001%; referendum #12 later set the cap to 100,000,000, which equals 10%.

The proposal did not execute because referendum #10 cancelled it.

Set maxMembersPerPool to 50,000 and globalMaxCommission to raw Perbill value 10, leaving every other nomination-pool setting unchanged.

No separate off-chain action was encoded.

Promised outcomes

Set the per-pool member limit to 50,000 and globalMaxCommission to raw value 10 if approved.

Verified outcomes

Referendum #10 cancelled #9 before execution.
Referendum #11 later executed the same proposal hash and call.

Follow-up: not-applicable

Percentages are derived from the encoded Perbill denominator rather than inferred from proposal wording.

Still unknown

No separate public body explains why the original proposal used the wrong track.
