Background: After the rebound, people in the chat were still eager to call a direction. Today: The weekend coincided with a US holiday, leaving the market thinner than usual. Impact and next steps: The exchange made no trading decision for anyone, but it clarified two worries: a thin market could not support a firm judgment, and a price quote could not explain the keys' purpose.

Background: After the rebound, people in the chat were still eager to call a direction. The Night Watchman had long kept an eye on his node and community messages. He knew how easily a confident claim could circulate during quiet trading hours.
Today: The weekend coincided with a US holiday, leaving the market thinner than usual. Someone asked the Night Watchman whether yesterday's rise had held. He declined to draw a conclusion from a small stretch of trading and instead asked whether the person's concern was when to sell or what their key might eventually be used for. The conversation returned to the proposal letter that still awaited an answer.
Impact and next steps: The exchange made no trading decision for anyone, but it clarified two worries: a thin market could not support a firm judgment, and a price quote could not explain the keys' purpose. The Night Watchman planned to discuss the trend when trading returned to its usual rhythm while continuing to watch the proposal forum for a response.
