Question 1

What is Rivyu?

Accepted Answer

Rivyu is a Telegram Mini App on TON: a neon-drenched rewards layer where engagement earns RIVYU (RIV) through mining, staking, chests, referrals, and provably fair loot—without sacrificing transparent token rules.

Question 2

What blockchain is Rivyu built on?

Accepted Answer

Rivyu is built on The Open Network (TON), using TON Connect for wallets and FunC smart contracts for jetton, staking, reward pools, and signed claims.

Question 3

Do I need to install a separate native app?

Accepted Answer

No. Open the official Rivyu bot inside Telegram, launch the Mini App in the in-app browser, and connect your wallet. The interface runs as a web experience inside Telegram.

Question 4

How does the Loot Chest system work?

Accepted Answer

Chests drop boosts, energy, RIV, and rare effects from five tiers (Data Shard through Glitch Core). Opens use a commit–reveal seed: the server commits a hash first, then reveals so anyone can verify fairness in-app.

Question 5

What is Proof of Engagement mining?

Accepted Answer

Mining is not hashrate proof-of-work. You run timed sessions while energy ticks down (1 unit per second), accrue RIV from a halving-adjusted base rate (125 RIV/day before halvings and level bonuses), and claim on-chain once you pass the minimum claim threshold (100 RIV). Higher levels raise max energy, regen, and mining multipliers up to about 2× at level 10.

Question 6

How does the weekly lottery work?

Accepted Answer

Each ISO week opens three on-chain pools in the Rewards hub: Bronze (100 RIV per ticket, 500 RIV minimum pot), Silver (500 / 2,500), and Gold (1,000 / 5,000). You can hold up to 25 tickets per pool per Rivyu account per week. Sales run through the week and close Monday 00:00 UTC; five winners per pool are drawn with HMAC-SHA256 provable fairness (server seed committed before the round, revealed after close). Roughly 60% of each pot pays winners (30% / 12% / 9% / 4.5% / 4.5%); ~40% routes to the Utility Pool. If a pool is below its minimum at close, every ticket in that pool is refunded on-chain instead of drawing.

Question 7

How do I set up a wallet for TON testnet?

Accepted Answer

Install Tonkeeper or another TON Connect–compatible wallet. In wallet settings, switch the network from Mainnet to Testnet. Claim free test TON from the official faucet bot (search Telegram for @testgiver_ton_bot). Then open the Rivyu Mini App and connect—use testnet.tonscan.org to inspect calls. Never send mainnet TON to testnet addresses or vice versa.

Question 8

What is My Badges (the badge vault) we recently shipped?

Accepted Answer

My Badges is a GameFi-style vault inside the About hub: neon plates for milestones you have actually earned—chest feats, programs, referrals, lottery participation, level progression, and rare global firsts. Each slot has a rarity tier (Common through Legendary). You can equip up to five badges at once; eligible plates grant small permanent passive bonuses to baseline mining rate and/or energy regen when equipped, rolled up in an 'active badge boosts' summary with combined caps (currently 15% mining and 15% energy regen from badges). Passives switch on from level 5 onward; below that, badges still display but contribute zero to those modifiers. Lottery odds and on-chain staking pool APY are unchanged by badges.

Question 9

Do badges buff mining, staking, or lottery odds?

Accepted Answer

Lottery draw odds are never affected by badges. On-chain staking APY comes from the pool contracts, not badge plates. For mining and energy, eligible equipped badges add small passive percentage bonuses to your baseline rate and regen (additive within caps, from level 5+), separate from time-limited Loot Chest multiplier boosts. Common-rarity plates are cosmetic for stats; Uncommon+ may carry a boost line—always read the vault UI and in-app numbers, not DMs.

Question 10

How are badge boosts different from Loot Chest boosts?

Accepted Answer

Chest boosts are time-limited mining multipliers (and similar effects) from opens—they expire on a timer and stack under their own rules. Badge boosts are permanent passives from badges you own: they apply to the level baseline for mining and to effective energy regen, are driven by what you equip (up to five slots), and are independent of the chest 10× multiplier ceiling. You can run both at once; the rate breakdown in the DApp should reflect both layers.

Question 11

What is the Data Rift?

Accepted Answer

The Data Rift is live in Rewards: a daily UTC coupon board where you flip sealed rift tickets for energy, mining boosts, Rift fragments, temporal caches, chest awards, Rift tokens, and RIV surges. Each UTC day includes three free extractions; extra flips on that board cost Rift tokens (hub-only currency—not liquid wallet RIV). A Fracture cycle (Monday through Sunday) nudges odds through the week, with Sunday collapse adding a bonus pulse. Open Rewards → Data Rift in the Mini App.

Question 12

How do I claim RIV won in the Data Rift?

Accepted Answer

RIV token wins from rift spins fill the Rift Transmission Buffer on the Data Rift screen (not your wallet balance). Once unclaimed RIV from rift spins totals at least 100, one on-chain claim sweeps the bucket via the mining-rewards pool contract (same explicit-claim pattern as Home pending transmission). Spins won before the buffer upgrade may show as legacy balance—those RIV are already merged into Home → Pending Transmission with mined rewards; claim from the Home tab instead.
