From @bobsummerwill
And those protocol changes could include:
ACTIONS ITEMS:
From @hitchcott right now [...] you can spam an entire full block for (7M gas * 1000 gasPrice) = 0.000000007 ETC or $0.0000000315 USD (if my math is correct)
very obvious spike when gasToken started being mined and continuing onward. before that gas usage was less than 5% current levels:
@zmitton Where is the graph above from? Something you generated yourself? Got newer data up to head? Same question to @YazzyYaz, who was gathering such data from the archival node he is syncing to back BlockScout.
i think yaz posted it on discord
He did! Which will be why it looks so familiar :-)
@bobsummerwill I used Google BigQuery for getting those data, and the code for it has been shared by me. Anyone can access Google BigQuery to run queries on ETC as long as they have a Google Cloud account. Its even free to run within Kaggle notebooks.
We held the meeting so I am closing this issue.
The GasToken issues are not fully resolved, but we can create new issues for specific tasks as the need arises.

Agenda
Discussion to inform /request miners to change their settings/configuration of target
block-gas-limit
.As predicted, blocks are beginning to fill up at similar rates to Ethereum (1gb per day or more). Most of this traffic is coming from GasToken, a smart contract who's goal is to fill every block up as much as it can. The amount they can fill it, is determined by miners, who "target" this limit in their node's settings.
Goal of this call is to organize outreach to miners and mining pools of the problem, so they can make informed decisions.
