The purpose of this referendum is to perform a runtime upgrade on Pendulum. This includes:

*   Upgrading runtime of Pendulum network to Polkadot version 1.1.0
*   Upgrade all self maintained pallets and chain extensions
*   Update all external pallets

Find more info on the Github release page [here](https://github.com/pendulum-chain/pendulum/releases/tag/pendulum-release-18).

Authorize an upgrade to a given `code_hash` for the runtime. The runtime can be supplied
later.

The `check_version` parameter sets a boolean flag for whether or not the runtime's spec
version and name should be verified on upgrade. Since the authorization only has a hash,
it cannot actually perform the verification.

This call requires Root origin.

- **Problem Statement:** Upgrade the Pendulum network runtime to Polkadot version 1.1.0 to enhance its functionality.
- **Significance:** Ensuring the Pendulum network remains up-to-date and compatible with the latest technology.
- **Proposed Solution:** Upgrade all self-maintained pallets, chain extensions, and external pallets.
- **Expected Outcomes:** Improved network performance and compatibility with the latest Polkadot version 1.1.0.
