Back to collectionStaking launches alongside a required operator upgrade
On February 27, 2024, Xai warned operators that a mandatory upgrade was needed for the staking launch. The 1.1.2 release notice described a breaking contract change and said older operators would stop participating in challenges. The optional 1.1.3 notice later that day added persistent logging that the preceding release had missed.

Xai subsequently announced that staking v1 and esXAI-to-XAI redemptions were live. It also directed ETHDenver attendees to core contributor Soby for help connecting to Xai. These are published launch and outreach statements, not Night Ash's firsthand activity. Availability does not establish that every operator upgraded, every redemption succeeded, or an investment earned a return.
