Dear Community Members,

This bounty is designed to fund System Parachain Collators on Kusama in a similar manner to **[bounty 20 on Kusama](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/bounty/20)**. Funding covers Asset-Hub and Bridge-Hub System Parachains.

This initiative is an extension of the original System Parachain Collator proposal.

**Funding Request:** Infrastructure Costs and Staking Rewards

**Coverage:** Two Kusama System Parachains (AssetHub and BridgeHub)
