Back to collectionA holder reports pool downgrades after the tier change
Hikikomori reported that pools holding their staked keys had fallen from Silver to Bronze. The holder believed one pool had withdrawn its esXAI after the change and also noticed greater key capacity, then asked where the revised rules had been announced. This was a specific account of changed participation conditions, not a measurement of withdrawals across the network.

The relevant policy context was the April 2 announcement: the foundation planned a substantially higher esXAI requirement for Silver after the expected emission halving. That earlier notice explained the intended threshold change but did not establish its exact activation time. For a pool participant, the distinction matters: capacity to accept more keys does not by itself preserve a reward tier when the required stake rises.
