# Protocol Parameters

There are several Glow protocol parameters that can be modified by the Governance. The polls voting over these parameters will be activated after the first 6 months of Glow, following our progressive decentralization roadmap.

### Glow Distributor Parameters

#### Modify Emission Rate Parameters

The dynamic Emission Rate Algorithm for depositor rewards is determined by several parameters which can be modified through governance:

* `Emission Cap` , which is the upper limit on GLOW token emissions per block.
* `Emission Floor`, which is the bottom limit on GLOW token emission per block.
* `Increment Multiplier` , which is the factor used to increment the current emission rate in case the current award is less than the `Target Award` 
* `Decrement Multiplier` , which is the factor used to decrement the current emission rate in case the current award is less than the `Target Award`

#### Modify Target Award

The `Target Award` is the goal`Award Available`per week. Since the depositor rewards are determined by the Emission Rate algorithm, the target award is used to set up the growth direction of rewards per block.

### Governance Parameters

#### **Modify Poll Quorum and Threshold**

#### **Modify Proposal Deposit**

#### **Modify Voting, Timelock and Expiration Periods**

### GEF Parameters

#### Modify Spend Limit

Each project funded by the Glow Ecosystem Fund (GEF) has a `Limit Spend`

In exceptional occasions of very large grants, the proceeds should be split into deliverables, conforming with the `Limit Spend`

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.glowyield.com/glow-yield/governance/protocol-parameters.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
