# Remove `36` assets from the accepted fee currencies

This proposal removes `36` assets from the list of currencies that can be used to pay transaction fees on Hydration. All of them have stopped trading on Hydration.

When a user pays a fee in a non-HDX asset, the fee goes to the Treasury in that asset. For assets with no active market on Hydration, the protocol cannot easily convert those fees into assets it wants to hold, so they build up as balances the Treasury cannot use. Use is already negligible: over the last `30` days only `12` of these assets paid any fees, in `321` transactions worth about `$1.43` in total.

Assets removed:
PHA (`8`), ASTR (`9`), iBTC (`11`), ZTG (`12`), BNC (`14`), GLMR (`16`), INTR (`17`), DAI Wormhole (`18`), SUB (`24`), UNQ (`25`), NODL (`26`), CRU (`27`), KILT (`28`), PLMC (`29`), MYTH (`30`), RING (`31`), AJUN (`32`), vASTR (`33`), NEURO (`36`), SQD (`37`), CFG (`41`), EURC (`42`), sUSDat (`45`), LAOS (`3370`), EWT (`252525`), PEN (`1000081`), ACA (`1000099`), LDOT (`1000100`), WETH (`1000189`), WBTC (`1000190`), XLM.s (`1000198`), sUSDS (`1000626`), EURC.s (`1000746`), SUI (`1000753`), KSM (`1000771`), LBTC (`1000851`).

The call is a single batch of `36` `multiTransactionPayment.removeCurrency` calls. This origin is accepted on the General Admin track.

Balances, transfers and trading of these assets are not affected; only the option to pay fees in them is removed. HDX, DOT, the major stablecoins, ETH and BTC assets, and all other currently accepted fee assets remain available. Accounts that have one of these assets selected as their fee currency need to select a different one in their wallet settings.

# Removing 36 Fee Currencies on Hydration

## What is this?
- This is a plan to stop letting people use **36 different coins** to pay small fees on Hydration.
- These coins are **no longer traded** on Hydration.

## Why do it?
- When people pay fees with these coins, the fees go to a group called the **Treasury**.
- The Treasury **cannot use or trade** these coins easily.
- Almost nobody uses them: in **30 days**, only **12** of the coins were used, in **321** payments worth about **$1.43** total.

## What happens?
- Only the **option to pay fees** with these coins goes away.
- **Sending, trading, and holding** these coins still works fine.
- Other coins like **HDX, DOT, stablecoins, ETH, and BTC** are **not** removed.

## What should people do?
- If your wallet uses one of these coins to pay fees, **pick a different coin** in your wallet settings.
