The redemption queue nears its end

The community was still absorbing news of the new season and the project's building phase. The Night Watchman checked the onchain queue he followed as part of his routine. As a node operator, he needed to notice changes without mistaking quiet for a resolved problem.

There was little activity onchain, and the redemption queue was nearly empty. The Night Watchman first thought of telling the chat that everything had been processed, then stopped himself: a nearly cleared queue did not mean every person had recovered their assets. He recorded what he could observe in his duty notes and planned to watch the remaining requests.

Earlier, the queue itself had required patience; now far fewer people appeared to be waiting. That let him return some attention to routine node maintenance. How the remaining requests would end was still unknown, and he resolved to state the limits of his observations in future status reports instead of offering a vague reassurance.
