The proposal, upgrading Polkadot Runtime to v9050, is up for vote. Release notes, runtime changes and hash can be found [HERE](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot/releases/tag/v0.9.5). This release resolves the scaling issues we are seeing on Polkadot Network with staking, introducing hard limits on the number of nominators on chain: which is configurable with governance.
