Back to collectionA Leaked List and a Queue That Would Not Move
The new year began without a claim entry point for the delayed airdrop. The most common question in the group remained, 'When will it be distributed?' The list made the uneven distribution visible and moved private quotes before claiming had officially opened; a script's reading still could not stand in for the official entry point.

The new year began without a claim entry point for the delayed airdrop. Players wanted a distribution date, while node operators faced two worries at once: a queue for identity verification and an earnings display still showing zero.
The most common question in the group remained, 'When will it be distributed?' The narrator urged everyone to log off for the holiday and said the airdrop would happen in January. Someone used a script to read a leaked list covering 125 million tokens: only 91 addresses held more than 100,000 each, while over 113,000 addresses held fewer than 2,000 each. The private presale price fell after the list circulated. In the node group, some had waited eight days for identity verification while earnings still showed zero. The Night Watchman checked his machine again and told them that, slow as the queue was, they should keep their machines on.
The list made the uneven distribution visible and moved private quotes before claiming had officially opened; a script's reading still could not stand in for the official entry point. The Night Watchman planned to explain machine status and verification progress separately to newcomers, so they would not mistake a slow queue for faulty equipment. The distribution date still awaited an announcement.
