Discord Raffle Bot for Web3 Communities

Verified raffles and giveaways with anti-abuse controls and winner transparency. Sized for the 5-server shape a web3 community usually runs.

Why web3 servers use raffle differently

Protocol raffles are recognition instruments: event attendance, testnet participation, contributor appreciation. Because prizes are often grant-funded, each draw needs a stated eligibility rule and a recorded snapshot per server. A single global draw across five servers dilutes recognition and invites the complaint that lurkers won what contributors earned.

What it costs to run at web3 scale

Five servers can run separate draws from one system, so cost is governance rather than licensing: publish the pool per cycle, for example three draws per month with eligibility tied to that server's goal, and record each draw's snapshot next to the incentive report.

How to configure it for a web3 server

Require verified contribution for contributor draws and attendance for event draws, and keep the two separate. Record entry snapshots with the reporting pack: the question at review time is who was eligible, not who won.

The mistake web3 servers make with raffle

On-chain prizes carry gas and a support queue that point prizes do not. Running one on-chain draw a month and keeping weekly draws off-chain gives the same cadence at a fraction of the operational cost, and members rarely distinguish between the two.

FAQ

How do you keep contributor raffles from rewarding lurkers?

Require verified contribution as the entry condition and keep contributor draws separate from event draws. Open-entry recognition draws stop being recognition after the first cycle.

What audit record should a grant-funded raffle keep?

The eligibility rule, the snapshot time, the entry list, and the winner, filed with the incentive report. Reconstructing eligibility later is not an acceptable answer at review.
