This thread is for discussing a dynamic plasma specification. Since work on designing a dynamic plasma solution has been started before the genesis of HyperQube, a more formal specification proposal has already been made.

The specification and the proposed default parameters are suitable for both mainnet and HyperQube.

[Draft specification proposal](https://github.com/vilkris4/zips/blob/main/dynamic-plasma.md)

## Tldr

- Introduce per-momentum base plasma usage targets for fused plasma and PoW plasma

- When network is saturated, target a 50/50 split (adjustable via governance) on fused plasma and PoW plasma usage

- Introduce fusion price and work price values to represent the price of fused plasma and PoW plasma

- Adjust the prices on each momentum depending on how far away the plasma usage is from the targets

- Require account blocks to use the current price of plasma to get included in a momentum

- Allow pillars to adjust, via governance, various dynamic plasma parameters such as the base plasma targets and overall network throughput
