Background: The studio was still fundraising and expanding its playtests, while community members continued to follow outside market conditions. News that China was intensifying the closure of mining sites spread quickly. The team had to address talk about the relocation of computing power and market pressure without mistaking a broad shock for a change in the game's own progress.
Today: China stepped up the closure of mining sites, making the relocation of computing power the group's focus, while BTC came under pressure at 32,000. The Night Watchman asked the group to stick to what was known: mining operations were relocating, and the price was under pressure. The available information was not enough to conclude how this would affect the studio's progress.
Impact and next steps: In recent days, the group had been able to leave market talk in the background; today an external policy shock took over the discussion. Playtesting and fundraising continued on their own tracks, but members' moods were more easily pulled by the market. The Night Watchman planned to gather players' specific concerns and sort out which ones related to game testing.
