Greetings everyone,
System collators are working together on a proposal for topping up Bounty 20 to extend support for Asset Hub collators and include newly added Bridge Hub collators. While Asset Hub collators are still being compensated with the remaining funds in Bounty 20, Bridge Hub collators on Kusama have been running their nodes at cost for over two months. Therefore, we propose a temporary solution for compensating these collators until we can coordinate a proposal that tops up Bounty 20.
There is a sister proposal on Polkadot that addresses this same issue that <a href="https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/post/1901" target="_blank" rel="noopener">you can view here</a>.
Here is a breakdown of collator compensation (plus the hours I've spent collecting and processing data and preparing these reports):

Access to the raw data/ formulas can be found <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xJPjrDsCM1yqHYCH18IUdx7mU0ieVit0E_p1a7MwgzI/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in this spreadsheet</a>.

Feedback would be appreciated!
With gratitude,
