Comment (by arma):

 Ah ha -- no, it's the authority_signing_key that I said was only for v3
 auths. And I still think that's true.

 But the ed25519_signing_key file is for every relay. It has nothing to do
 with your bridge authority status in particular.

 You have a relay whose signing key (for the relay, not for any authority
 thing) has just expired. I guess that means you made your relay identity
 key in an offline way? You need to do whatever the process is for
 generating a new signing cert from your ed25519_signing_secret_key.
