Are holders going to be compensated for the 6 months of missed staking?

I’ve been holding WMT this whole time, even when rewards completely stopped for months. That’s six months where a lot of us stayed locked in, supporting the project, expecting things would get sorted.

Now it’s about to go back up, but… nothing? No mention of retroactive rewards, no acknowledgment? Are we just supposed to eat that loss and move on?

Feels pretty unfair to the people who actually believed in this and didn’t sell. If there’s a plan to make it right, good, but if not, that needs to be said too.

Has anyone heard anything from the team on this?

Hey @Mofrid, welcome, and yes, totally fair question.

So far, there’s been no official word from the team about retroactive rewards or compensation for the staking pause. Understandably, it’s a frustration shared by a lot of long-term holders, me included, and especially those who stayed in through the quiet period.

The general vibe has been that the focus was on rebuilding staking from the ground up (multichain, secure, with new apps), and less on backdating rewards. But you’re right, some kind of acknowledgment from the team would go a long way.

Hopefully once staking is fully live again, they’ll speak to it more directly. If anything changes, we’ll definitely hear about it in the official channels.

A lot of us just held onto our WMTx through the entire staking downtime, something that was initially supposed to last a couple of weeks. We didn’t chase other opportunities, we just trusted that things would get sorted “soon.”

Even if retroactive rewards aren’t on the table, a clear response from the team would go a long way. Just acknowledging that people stayed locked in for six months with zero yield would mean something.

At the very least, it’d help to know if this is still being discussed internally or if it’s already considered done and dusted. Transparency matters, especially when delays have dragged on this long.
