Prop 83: Update IBC Rate Limit for USDC (channel-3)

1. TL;DR

This proposal updates the existing IBC rate limit on channel-3 (Initia ↔ Noble) for USDC from 20% to 50% per hour for both inflows and outflows.

2. Proposal Details

The previous 20% rate limit has been in effect and the network has demonstrated healthy activity. Raising the threshold to 50% reduces unnecessary friction for large but legitimate transfers, while still providing a meaningful circuit breaker against exploits or abnormal fund movements.
