Back to collectionThe Vote Delay Becomes a Question of Contingency
As February drew to a close, technical problems with Safe were still delaying XIP-1, and holders on the forum were waiting for a voting date. XAI closed the month at $0.088, down 45% in February. The wait had become a question about how decisions would be made if repairs dragged on.

As February drew to a close, technical problems with Safe were still delaying XIP-1, and holders on the forum were waiting for a voting date. The Night Watchman, a longtime community member, saw that their worry had grown beyond a delay of a few days.
XAI closed the month at $0.088, down 45% in February. A forum member asked whether XIP-1 would be postponed indefinitely if Safe could not be fixed, and whether the team had a fallback plan. An operator said the questions had been noted and would be passed on. The Night Watchman urged the member to keep both questions in one thread so a later reply would address more than the date.
The wait had become a question about how decisions would be made if repairs dragged on. The Night Watchman decided to raise the fallback plan at the next community discussion instead of guessing at the team's answer; the questioner left the post up. No one had yet explained when voting could begin or what would happen if the repair took longer.
