> `ExternalPartyConfigState` stores the configuration required for transfer, allocations, traffic purchases and taps. While it exposes a subset of the information also available on `OpenMiningRound`, `ExternalPartyConfigState` contracts are active much longer allowing for a 24 delay between preparing and executing a transaction.
>
> There are always two `ExternalPartyConfigState` contracts created approximately `externalPartyConfigStateTickDuration` apart from each other and each is active for `2 * externalPartyConfigStateTickDuration`.

> Signatory: dso
