The Big Picture
Difficulty and burn costs adjust periodically based on registration demand. AdjustmentInterval controls how often - every N blocks, the system compares actual vs target registrations and adjusts costs accordingly. Frequent adjustments = more responsive pricing.
Why This Matters
When will costs change? Every AdjustmentInterval blocks. If you're planning to register, check where you are in the cycle - costs might go up or down at the next adjustment.
Example Scenario
Query AdjustmentInterval(netuid=1) returns 100 blocks. Every 100 blocks, registration costs (difficulty and burn) adjust based on recent demand.
Common Questions
- How much do costs change?
- Depends on actual vs target registrations. Many more registrations than target = costs increase. Fewer = costs decrease.
- Can I predict the adjustment?
- Roughly. Check RegistrationsThisInterval vs TargetRegistrationsPerInterval. If significantly above target, expect costs to rise.
Use Cases
- Predict when difficulty/burn will next adjust
- Plan registration timing around adjustments
- Build cost prediction models
- Research registration economics
- Monitor adjustment cycles
Purpose & Usage
Purpose
Control difficulty adjustment frequency - how often registration costs adapt to demand.
Common Query Patterns
- Query by netuid
- Plan registration timing
- Predict cost changes
