XAI Reaches 0.90 While Node Rewards Invite Scrutiny

The early June rebound had revived the trading group, while node operators were still working through the reward changes after the first halving. Bitcoin climbed back above USD 69,000, and heavier trading carried XAI to 0.90. The rally offered holders some relief without resolving operators' questions about income.

The early June rebound had revived the trading group, while node operators were still working through the reward changes after the first halving. XAI's market price and an esXAI reward were telling different stories.

Bitcoin climbed back above USD 69,000, and heavier trading carried XAI to 0.90. On the node side, officials confirmed that each challenge paid about 32 esXAI after the halving. One operator tabulated their own records and calculated that what actually reached them had fallen by 70%, rather than by half. Some in the group tried to explain the table using the reward per challenge; its author insisted that the final amount received was what mattered.

The rally offered holders some relief without resolving operators' questions about income. The Night Watchman planned to discuss the stated reward per challenge separately from what an individual actually received, then look for the source of the gap once the calculations used the same basis. The table still needed checking.
