Universal inverse-degree upper bound for critical percolation

From papers

Let GG be an infinite, connected, transitive, simple graph of vertex degree dd that is not one-dimensional, and let pc(G)p_c(G) be its Bernoulli bond percolation critical probability. Universal inverse-degree conjecture. There exists a universal constant CC such that

pc(G)Cd.p_c(G)\leq\frac{C}{d}.

This conjecture would strengthen known uniform gaps below 11 for Cayley graphs and would imply, together with locality, that pcp_c attains a global maximum on the space of non-one-dimensional transitive graphs. The source leaves the conjecture open.
