Back to collectionDaily Rain Keeps Its Ritual as Rewards Move to Automation
Background: The community held a daily “rain” in which the official team distributed Ether rewards to participants who met the level requirements. Today: The official team announced that it would stop handing out money manually during the daily “rain.” Impact and next: Rewards shifted from staff processing each payment to automatic distribution by level, easing the staffing burden as the event grew, while the public gathering remained.

Background: The community held a daily “rain” in which the official team distributed Ether rewards to participants who met the level requirements. As attendance and claims grew, paying each person manually began to take time away from running the event and made timely, rule-based distribution harder.
Today: The official team announced that it would stop handing out money manually during the daily “rain.” An automated bot would instead send Ether in real time according to level. The ritual itself stayed: the community would still gather, and the host would read out the day’s top recipients. Reward delivery and public recognition were now separate; the program handled the former.
Impact and next: Rewards shifted from staff processing each payment to automatic distribution by level, easing the staffing burden as the event grew, while the public gathering remained. Whether the bot could reliably handle exceptions, and whether the level rules needed adjustment, still had to be observed in operation.
