# Claiming Grace Period

### **What's the Claim Grace Period?**&#x20;

All newly earned tokens will have a 7-day grace period before they become claimable. This means your daily rewards will be visible in your dashboard immediately but become available to claim after 7 days.

### **Why We're Doing This?**

Following best practices from successful projects in the space, this security buffer protects against unforeseen issues and ensures accurate token distribution. This is about protecting the long-term value and stability of the network for everyone. **How It Works:**

* Earn today → Claim in 7 days
* This becomes the standard process going forward

### **When does this start?**

This 7 day grace period change will go live Wednesday, September 17th, and will apply to all new daily rewards earned from that date forward.

### **Important Notes for Beta Participants:**

* Your total beta rewards are based on earnings up to 7 days before mainnet
* You'll have claimable tokens ready from day one
* Only stations joining within 7 days of mainnet and after will experience a waiting period for their first claims
