Voting - Adjust the reward rate for KAR staking and KAR/USDC LP staking

- There was an issue with a recent upgrade to Kusama that caused some transfers to not be fully executed.
- This means that some KSM (a type of cryptocurrency) that were sent to Karura did not get credited to the correct account.
- To fix this, a proposal was made to mint (create) the missing KSM on the correct account at Karura.
- A list of the transfers that were impacted can be viewed on a website called GitHub.
- This is important because it helps make sure that people's cryptocurrency transfers are completed correctly.

Restore partially executed XCM transfers

#96 Runtime upgrade - Bug fixes and improvements

Karura Network has introduced two sub-programs to enhance KAR's role as a fundamental utility. The first sub-program is KAR Staking, which aims to align stakeholders, participants, and network infrastructures. The target KAR Staking APR is 10%, and the target staking rate is 30% to 50%. The second sub-program is KAR Liquidity Pair, which fosters liquidity within the Karura ecosystem. The first pair is KAR-USDCet, and the target APR is 10% - 16%. The proposal covers the initial two months' incentives, and further incentive adjustments will be proposed in the following weeks. The proposal includes transferring 883,332 KAR from Karura Treasury to incentives reward vault account, setting KAR staking incentive reward rate, starting bootstrap KAR/USDCet pair on Karura Swap, and enabling claim loyalty bonus for KAR/USDCet.
