Account is not a member
What This Means
The signing account is not a member of the Senate. Only Senate members (top validators by stake) can propose, vote on, or close Senate proposals.
Common Causes
- Signing with an account that is not in the current Senate membership
- You were previously a Senate member but lost your seat due to stake changes
- Using the wrong account (e.g., coldkey instead of the registered validator hotkey)
How to Fix
- Query Senate.Members to check the current membership list
- Verify you are signing with the correct account
- If you lost your seat, increase your stake to re-enter the top validators
