### Trait-Based Roles and Rewards
Castle Bots supports more advanced setup through **trait-based roles** and **trait-based rewards**.
This allows a server to create more granular systems based on specific NFT traits or collection conditions.
Examples of how this can be used:
* special roles for rare NFT traits
* extra reward rates for specific holders
* advanced holder segmentation
* deeper gamification inside the server
Trait-based logic can be configured through the star icon during setup.
### Reward Token Mint Setup
For reward systems like **Hold-to-Earn** and **Chat-to-Earn**, server owners need to enter the correct **reward token mint address** during setup.
This helps connect the points system to the token reward flow used by the server.
Before enabling reward systems, server owners should make sure they have:
* the correct reward token mint
* the correct collection ID, token, or hashlist
* the correct role structure
* the correct points-to-token swap logic
This helps keep reward distribution clean and consistent from the start.
### Why Castle Bots Helps Server Owners
Castle Bots helps server owners reduce manual work and build a stronger community system.
Instead of managing everything manually, server owners can automate:
* holder role updates
* eligibility checks
* reward logic
* wallet-linked systems
* ongoing community participation flows
This gives communities a more scalable foundation for growth.
