What it means

Who it affects, what changes and what is still unconfirmed

Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.

The practical change is that kPoints is no longer running and access to KNTQ now comes through a paid claim at a set price, rather than through the old points program. What stays in place is the token strategy itself, which was described as still aimed at supporting KNTQ over time even as short-term volatility and market pressure were noted.
