Holders had been choosing between staking income and a long redemption period, with locked XAI difficult to use at short notice. The community was now discussing a liquid-staking approach. Existing stakers worried that a new route in would change how rewards were divided within the same pool.
Under the proposal, XAI would be exchanged for a transferable receipt and that receipt staked in a pool. It would continue to earn the stated annualized yield and could be exchanged back for XAI at any time, aiming to bypass a redemption period of fifteen to 180 days. Supporters saw a way out of the lockup. Critics said that if more people entered the pool, existing stakers might receive a thinner share; the XAI released in monthly unlocks might be the first capital to benefit.
The discussion shifted from whether holders could exit to who would bear the cost of additional participants. One longtime staker decided to clarify how receipt redemption and pool rewards would work together before considering a switch. People seeking flexibility also waited to see the actual rules. The proposal offered both sides a concrete path to discuss, while the allocation dispute remained open.
