The previous day’s surge and retreat had mixed questions into the celebration. The Night Watchman and other node operators still remembered the dispute over returns before and after the V1 tier changes. Now the foundation needed to explain what the next staking version might address.
XAI changed hands heavily near its highs, swinging widely around USD 1.50 as buyers and sellers disagreed. The foundation began previewing Staking V2: pools, lower fees, and support for third-party rewards. Some in the group saw a meaningful response to the hurt caused by V1; others asked how pool owners would divide rewards.
The discussion shifted from whether to stake to which pool to join and under what rules. The Night Watchman planned to list his questions about fees and distribution and wait for the details before recalculating his position. The preview gave smaller operators something concrete to discuss, but the terms of the pools had yet to take effect.
