ENGAGE IO vs Arcane for NFT & Web3
A typical nft & web3 setup runs 2 servers. Free tier; Premium priced in tiers, see arcane.bot/premium for current figures
The gap that matters for nft & web3 servers
An NFT project's membership model is on-chain: holders get a role, non-holders do not. Arcane has no wallet linking or holder verification, and no verified X/Twitter actions, so the two mechanics that decide mint-week marketing and holders-only access both have to be handled by another tool. What Arcane does well, precise XP tuning, is not the thing a mint community is short of.
What Arcane costs at nft & web3 scale
With two servers, a public mint community and a holders-only server, Arcane premium has to be activated on each one by inviting the premium bot instance separately, and Arcane publishes no flat price to plan against. You would still be adding a wallet-verification bot on top, so the real cost is Arcane premium twice plus a second vendor.
Setup and migration for a nft & web3 server
Do not migrate XP history into a holders server; gate it on wallet ownership first, then start progression fresh so holder standing means holding rather than chat volume accumulated pre-mint. Arcane's free cap of 15 role rewards is usually spent on tier roles you will replace with token gates anyway.
The switching mistake nft & web3 servers make
Tiered per-server premium means a collection running a main and a holders server is paying twice, and the second subscription is the one that gets forgotten at renewal. Cancel both explicitly and check the billing page rather than assuming removal of the bot ends the charge.
| Free-tier cap at this scale | Total available |
|---|---|
| Role rewards (total) across 2 nft & web3 servers | 30 (15 per server) |
| Role rewards per level across 2 nft & web3 servers | 2 (1 per server) |
| Custom commands across 2 nft & web3 servers | 10 (5 per server) |
| Reaction roles across 2 nft & web3 servers | 20 (10 per server) |
Arcane publishes no flat premium figure, so premium cost at 2 servers cannot be stated.
| Metric | Target |
|---|---|
| Subscriptions to cancel | 2, main and holders server |
| Verify | Billing page shows no active tier, not just bot removed |
| Overlap period | 7 days |
FAQ
Can Arcane verify NFT holders or link wallets?▼
No. Arcane has no wallet linking or holder verification, so a holders-only Discord cannot be enforced with it. ENGAGE IO links wallets and assigns holder roles from on-chain ownership, which is what makes a gated server hold up after the mint spike passes.
Is Arcane useful for NFT mint campaigns?▼
Only for measuring chat. Arcane offers no quest engine and no X/Twitter action verification, so retweet-and-reply campaigns cannot be rewarded on proof of action. It is a leveling bot in a situation where the binding constraint is verified off-platform participation.
Includes a 2-week premium trial when you add the bot.
