Prop 97: Set emergency tally interval to 12h

1. TL;DR

This proposal raises the emergency proposal tally interval from 5 minutes to 12 hours, now that the IBC client recovery after the restart is complete. Emergency proposal: tallied every 5 minutes.

2. Proposal Details

The restart upgrade on 2026-11-02 set the emergency tally interval to 5 minutes and added one emergency submitter, so the IBC clients that expired during the halt could be recovered quickly. That recovery was completed by Proposal 95.

Parameter Before the halt Current After this proposal
emergency_tally_interval 24 hours 5 minutes 12 hours
emergency_submitters none init1dsnzup54faj3w7vlfh9aw2k3fwdu555g7qwg37 unchanged

All other gov parameters are unchanged from before the halt.

3. Rationale

  • The 5 minute interval was set for the client recovery, which is finished.
  • A 12 hour interval gives voters more time on any future emergency proposal.
  • Keeping the emergency submitter keeps a faster path available than the 7 day voting period.

4. Technical Change

One MsgUpdateParams message from the gov authority init10d07y265gmmuvt4z0w9aw880jnsr700j55nka3 sets:

  • emergency_tally_interval: 43200s

Every other field is passed with its current value.
