Jetton bridge deployed in April mints jettons with tunable parameters, in particular network config controls minimal storage fee, computation fee and some other parameters which every request to jetton wallet should ensure. Initial parameters in config were chosen very conservatively and ensures that jetton will work even in the case of much higher gas fees.

Since jetton bridge release it became clear that these parameters can be loosen, moreover this loosening will facilitate a few popular protocols on TON. Config update adjusts bridge token parameters by making min_storage_fee lower from 0.01 TON -> 0.008 TON, which will meet all requirements
