As October drew to a close, Xai testnet traffic and the Sentry key sale arrangements had become everyday subjects in the community. Looking back over the month, the narrator wanted to place the network trial, the market, and the next date people were waiting for in one account.
BTC closed the month at USD 34,400, up nearly 30% in October. During the month, daily testnet transactions rose from 580,000 to 1.4 million. The Sentry key's price, its total supply of 50,000 keys, and the December 6 sale date had also been announced. Seeing these figures, the Night Watchman reminded himself that heavy traffic and reliable node operation were separate matters, and turned his attention to the conditions for taking part.
Two clear threads remained at month's end: the testnet had carried a heavier load, and the sale now had a price, a supply, and a date. Odyssey tasks were still going, but the community would increasingly count the days until December 6. Each prospective operator still had to work out how to keep a node running after acquiring a key.
