+# PIP-79: Bounded-Range Validation for Configurable EIP-1559 Parameters
+#
+# Replaces Polygon PoS's deterministic EIP-1559 baseFee validation with
+# boundary-based validation. Instead of requiring blocks to declare an
+# exact baseFee computed from hardcoded parameters, validators accept any
+# baseFee within a +/-5% range of the parent block's baseFee.
+#
+# Consensus rules:
+#   lowerBound = parentBaseFee * 95 / 100  (floor division)
+#   upperBound = parentBaseFee * 105 / 100 (floor division)
+#   Valid iff:  lowerBound <= childBaseFee <= upperBound
+#   Minimum:    childBaseFee >= 1 wei (baseFee of 0 is always invalid)
+#
+# Activated with the Lisovo hardfork on Polygon PoS.
