After the Sentry license key sale was announced, the community was studying nodes while worrying that talk of games would be pushed aside. The team needed people who could explain both games and the chain, and it also needed to distinguish running the software from earning rewards.
Today the team opened a creator program for people who understood both games and blockchain. It also made the rule explicit: once the Sentry software was released, anyone would be able to download and run it, but a node would still need a purchased license key to submit results and receive network rewards. When the Night Watchman saw people equating “can run” with “can earn,” he decided to explain the two steps separately before discussing whether a key was worth buying.
Creators now had a way to contribute content, and the terms of Sentry participation were clearer. For the Night Watchman, trying the software after release and paying for submission and reward eligibility would be separate decisions. He planned to ask how rewards reached a node and what operating requirements remained beyond the key.
