Background: In the final days before the election, the market looked calm, but node operators were only beginning to adjust to challenge rewards calculated by time. For them, whether the announced compensation worked mattered more immediately than price guesses in the chat.
Today: Some found they had received only 40% of their usual reward. Others said they normally received 14 or 15 esXAI a day but had received almost none today. The cause was unclear, and the chat split between waiting for the system to catch up and demanding an explanation now. Separately, Sentry Key holders gained access to the tier-two whitelist for the Huddle01 media node sale, valid until November 4.
Impact and what follows: The whitelist gave holders a choice with a deadline, but did not explain the missing rewards. Operators decided to compare their assertion submissions with their claim records while awaiting an official explanation. Without a cause, nobody could yet tell whether this was a display delay or a distribution problem.
