This is due the the recent change to deprecate 1of1 vaults and put all tx through TSS vaults.
It also means more revenue for the network.

This means the minimum fee a user/swapper can pay for an L1 outbound transaction is $1.
Previously (pictured below), a swapper pays the minimum outbound on-chain fee for a transaction. This example below is a user swapping from $RUNE to $BUSD paying outbound fee of $0.1094. With the recent update, the fee charged will be a minimum of $1 instead, regardless of the L1 chain.
This also means more revenue for the network and go a long way in buffering up the reserves.
