I am proposing a tip for DotScanner.com to cover the costs of March 2022 for hosting the explorer (last one to cover Feb 2022 was proposed on [Polkadot](https://polkadot.polkassembly.io/tip/0xed3e80e2a1cfa843e86e31e2284264146166a054179137a4a84ee2408af57cce)). We are monitoring this on a monthly basis for now since the team is adding new enhancements that increase the monthly cost of hosting - hence the monthly coverage for now.

The reason we decided with the team in opening a tip instead is solely due to the fact the amount is so small that it does not make sense to go through a motion process to execute this.

The request is for 4.8 KSM at $160 USD ([Subscan EMA30](https://kusama.subscan.io/tools/charts?type=price)).
