Background: News of a partnership involving more than 100 indie games had drawn the community back into discussion, and the Binance live Q&A the night before packed the room. Node operators had a more immediate concern: when staking V2 would be usable and how to schedule maintenance in the meantime.
Today: XAI rebounded to USD 1.10. So many people joined the previous night's broadcast that the room briefly crashed, and the team said twice, “Without the community, we are nothing.” It also confirmed that staking V2 had been delayed until April, saying the extra time would be used to get it right. Operators were due to receive a software update first, the following week.
Impact and next steps: The price recovery and lively broadcast quickly eased the earlier panic, and the group almost acted as though nothing had happened. The Night Watchman kept “next week's update” separate from “April V2”: the first called for maintenance time, while the second could only be judged after launch. The mood of the broadcast was not enough to settle his concerns.
