The default contestation period is _600 seconds_, but it should be tailored to the network conditions, as different networks have varying block production rates. A good rule of thumb is the maximum time you would expect an attacker to launch a withholding attack onto the cardano network you are on. Also, consider the time it takes to propagate a transaction to the network and the time it takes for a block to be produced, and the contestation period should be long enough to accomodate any downtime of the `hydra-node`.

The contestation deadline decides when a closed head can be fanned out. At worst, this is `(1 + n) * CP` after submitting a `Close` transaction, where `n` is the number of participants in the head. This is because the deadline is pushed forward on each `Contest`. With no contestations which may still be `2 * CP` after `Close` depending on the upper validity set on che close transaction. The `hydra-node` currently picks a blanket 200 seconds as [max grace time](https://hydra.family/head-protocol/haddock/hydra-node/Hydra-Chain-Direct-Handlers.html#v:maxGraceTime).
