A rising wave of concern in the Songbird community centers on missing rewards since May 12, with numerous people expressing dissatisfaction over inconsistent reward distributions. While some users report normal functioning for their systems, others are left perplexed and disappointed.

Community Voices Share Frustration

The dialogue around this issue continues to grow:

  • Reward Gaps: One user shared, "I had a gap between 5/5 and 5/16 where I did not receive any SGB rewards. Seems to be back to normal now."

  • Provider Issues: "I switched to tempestFTSO a few weeks back, but I didn’t get a single reward," another user stated.

  • Buyer’s Regret: Some users reported feeling compelled to purchase more tokens due to the fear of missing out, with one remarking, "I ended up buying more to avoid the missed opportunity of what should’ve been rewarded."

The Quest for Transparency

Part of the frustration stems from a desire for clearer tracking of rewards. A user expressed disappointment in the current system, wanting a data table that goes beyond basic reporting:

  • "I want to see how that provider has issued rewards in the past going back 1, 2, 3, 6 months."

This illustrates a call from the community for better insights into provider performance.

Suggestions and Strategies for Users

In response to the growing issues, community members have suggested several practical steps:

  1. Provider Switching: A common recommendation is changing providers to increase reward likelihood.

  2. Stay Informed: Monitoring distribution closely and providing immediate feedback to token providers.

  3. Smart Delegation: Community talk hints that selecting validators carefully might yield better rewards, reducing uncertainty.

Key Insights

Looking Forward

With many people voicing their concerns, providers may need to adopt measures for better transparency and reliability. While this could help, it’s uncertain how quickly all community members will adjust to any forthcoming changes.
