sudo_set_rho
Call v138 → v277, v290 → current #17Sets the rho parameter for consensus on a subnet .
View calls on chainCall Workflow
This diagram shows the call execution flow: starting with sudo_set_rho, passing through validation
(signature, nonce, mortality, fee payment), then pre-dispatch checks, followed by dispatch and modifies storage: SubtensorModule.Rho, and finally post-dispatch where ExtrinsicSuccess is emitted and fees are settled.

The Big Picture
Rho controls aspects of how emissions are calculated and distributed. Part of the consensus mechanism.
Use Cases
- Tuning emission curves
- Adjusting reward distribution
From Chain Metadata
The extrinsic sets the rho for a subnet. It is only callable by the root account or subnet owner. The extrinsic will call the Subtensor pallet to set the rho.
