[RFC] PTIP-96: Add Liquidity to the Across Relayer

[RFC] PTIP-96: Add Liquidity to the Across Relayer

Simple Summary

The Across Bridge is an important part of V5 allowing people to easily and cheaply bridge between L2s. This proposal will ensure that this stays possible in the future if demand rises or we add new chains.

Abstract

The Across Relayer currently only has 50k POOL split between 6 chains (Mainnet, Optimism, Base, Arbitrum, Scroll, WorldChain).
The result of this is that it is currently only possible to bridge at max. 13k POOL with a bridge time of 15 min (e.g. from Optimism to Base).
This proposal will top up another 50k to increase this amount and also increase the amounts for faster bridge times (e.g. currently 5 sec for 2k POOL).

Motivation

Tuna made me aware of this problem in the governance channel on Discord. Adding Liquidity to the Relayer was a suggestion from the technical people at Across he was chatting with which I agree with.

Specification

Top up the Across Relayer address on Mainnet (eth:0x428AB2BA90Eba0a4Be7aF34C9Ac451ab061AC010) with 50k POOL. The Relayer auto balances this amount between all available chains.
