update-crowdloan-cap

Update the cap of a non-finalized crowdloan (creator only).

Raises or lowers the total the crowdloan can collect. Only the creator may change it, and only while the loan has not been finalized. Reaching the (new) cap is what allows the creator to finalize.

CLI

Preview with --dry-run (shows fee, effects, and policy result without submitting), then submit:

btcli tx update-crowdloan-cap \
  --crowdloan-id <int> \
  --new-cap-tao <amount|all> --dry-run
btcli tx update-crowdloan-cap \
  --crowdloan-id <int> \
  --new-cap-tao <amount|all> -w my_coldkey

Python

import bittensor as sub
from bittensor.wallet import Wallet

wallet = Wallet(name="my_coldkey", hotkey="my_hotkey")
intent = sub.UpdateCrowdloanCap(crowdloan_id=0, new_cap_tao=1.0)

async with sub.Client("finney") as client:
    plan = await client.plan(intent, wallet)   # fee, effects, policy — no submission
    result = await client.execute(intent, wallet)
    if not result.success:
        print(result.error.code, result.error.remediation)

Or build it by op name, as an agent would:

await client.execute_tool("update_crowdloan_cap", {...}, wallet)
