What “proof of engagement” mining means (and does not mean)

"Mining" in mainstream crypto often implies proof-of-work hashrate. Rivyu's mining loop is different: it is an engagement-based distribution game tied to sessions, energy, progression, and published reward rules — not competing to hash blocks.

In Rivyu's documented model, users run timed sessions while energy ticks down, accrue RIV from a halving-adjusted base rate, and claim on-chain after crossing thresholds. Halvings can trigger from community scale milestones and cumulative mined supply — meaning the system is designed to change its emission curve as adoption grows.

Higher levels can raise caps and multipliers; the FAQ describes the intent and the approximate shape of those bonuses.

Client-side balances are trivially spoofable. Rivyu uses a server-side validation pipeline and signed payloads checked on-chain so tampering cannot mint fake rewards. That architecture is a trust feature, not a nuisance: it is how honest apps keep economics consistent at scale.

If you are writing about Rivyu for an audience new to TON, lead with this distinction — it prevents readers from pattern-matching your product onto scam "cloud mining" landing pages.
