Most people will read @GenLayer's Pre-Mainnet Staking as one race. I read it as two clocks running at once. Clock 1 is Staking Points. Every 1 GEN staked earns 1 point a day, same rate for everyone. 1,000 GEN is 30,000 points after a month. Your unclaimed airdrop counts as staked from THE DAY, so even locked GEN is already on the clock. Clock 2 is eligibility. You need a node running at least 30 days on Clarke. No node, no seat, however high you rank. Want 10 seats? Run 10 nodes. Here is why both matter. Seats are shared out in proportion to points at the mainnet snapshot, and winners start as validators backed by the Foundation's own GEN. Points decide how big your slice is. The node decides whether you get a plate at all. Never ran a node? Node-as-a-service partners can run it for you and it is still yours. So which clock have you started?
