Paths to Rewards
Today we’re happy to announce that following a successful platform launch, platform distribution rewards are officially live.
If you’re participating on any level in the Gala Film ecosystem, you’re likely to start seeing POPCORN! rewards in your account. When the $FILM token launches within the coming months with its initial Token Generation Event, you’ll gain the ability to convert all your POPCORN! to $FILM, and from then on you’ll start receiving $FILM directly for all the actions described below.
Check the Gala Film Litepaper for additional information about Gala Film rewards, including allocations, long term plans and reward boost opportunities for owning various early adopter NFTs!
You can now get rewarded for…
Supporting the Ecosystem
In the decentralized world of entertainment, anyone’s success is everyone’s success, so rewarding platform support is paramount to Gala Film. Whether you’re bringing new audience members by sharing your favorite episodes with friends and family, watching the latest episodes of your favorite series, or unlocking exclusive content through Mystery Boxes, you deserve to be rewarded for your time and attention.
According to the Gala Film Litepaper, a portion of $FILM is allocated to a pool called “Ecosystem Supporting Behaviors.” With launch, this pool will consist of 12.5% of total $FILM, but each year as the platform grows toward total decentralization, this pool will increase by ~1%.
This reward pool observes a point system to allow certain actions to qualify the user for a greater share in the pool. The list below includes the initial qualifying actions that will result in $FILM rewards from this pool.
Owning Moments
When you hold Moment NFTs from a Gala Film production, expect regular rewards that are dependent on the number of platform views for your content. When you own a RZR NFT Moment (no matter the episode), you’ll be qualified for rewards whenever any episode from the RZR series is viewed!
Because Moments are pieces of curated Scenes, when you complete a Scene, you’ll get a reward boost for all the Moments within that scene.
If you manage to collect all completed Scenes from RZR, you’ll get the MAX Boost for all your Moments.
In the Gala Film Litepaper, the reward portion allocated to owners of Moment NFTs is called the “Content Incentivization Mechanism.” This portion of $FILM is divided among publishers/creators and viewers of Gala Film content.
With the initial platform launch, 17.5% of $FILM rewards are allocated to this reward pool, and each year as Gala Films grows toward total decentralization, that percentage will increase by ~2%.
Rewards for Filmmakers
Filmmaker $FILM rewards are also considered part of Content Incentivization, with a portion of this allocation used to reward the visionary creators and artists who make Gala Film productions a reality.
With the future Gala Film Pitches update, it will become possible for anyone in the community to submit film projects or ideas, calling the Gala Film community to gather in support with their $FILM and essentially crowdfunding the future of decentralized cinema!
Operating a Theater Node
The Gala Film DePIN is powered by the operators who contribute computing power in exchange for rewards. Video content is delivered in real time using a state-of-the-art DCDN (Decentralized Content Delivery Network) with Theater Nodes at its core.
As described in the Gala Film Litepaper with the initial platform launch, active operators of Gala Film’s Theater Nodes share in 17.5% of the total $FILM rewards allocated. As the platform continues to grow toward total decentralization, this percentage will increase by ~2% per year.
Additionally, 2.5% of $FILM is awarded to Gala Founder’s Node operators for their role in supporting the backbone of the entire Gala ecosystem.
If you are interested in Theater Node operation to enhance your potential rewards while supporting the growing Gala Film ecosystem, you can purchase a license here.
Join the Next Generation of Film
After many months of tireless work from across the various Gala teams to make this all possible, we’re extremely excited to finally see the fruits of our labor enjoyed by the community. Not only can we offer awesome exclusive film and series content absolutely free, but we can promise a rewarding and gamified experience that will take you deeper.
If you haven’t started watching RZR yet, check out the first two episodes now and we think you’ll be just as hooked on Grimm’s dark story as we are.
The first two episodes of David Bianchi’s dystopian sci-fi thriller series, RZR, are officially live, only on Gala Film. Anyone with a Gala account can watch for free, and new episodes will drop each week!
Have Some POPCORN!
Owners of RZR Moment NFTs are eligible for daily rewards based on the platform views of the series. These ownership rewards are the core of Gala Film’s empowering approach to production and distribution of exclusive video content.
The Gala Film Litepaper outlining the ecosystem’s economy and current plans for distribution of rewards has been updated to reflect the latest developments. A new reward structure will soon be implemented in which units of POPCORN! are awarded directly to users, rather than in buckets. This will take effect after all outstanding POPCORN! Buckets have been distributed to operators of Theater Nodes from before the launch.
While RZR is the only series on the platform, the NFT owner portion of all available “content incentive” rewards will be distributed to RZR Moment owners. In the future when other pieces of content (other shows and films) are added, these rewards will be proportionally weighted to those programs that receive more views.
In the long term, these rewards will be issued as $FILM, directly to owners’ accounts. However, until the initial token generation event of $FILM (coming within the next couple months), rewards will be issued via the placeholder token, POPCORN!.
When $FILM is created and first issued, it will be distributed to holders of POPCORN!, converting all POPCORN! To $FILM at a set rate. The rate of automatic exchange for POPCORN is 1 POPCORN = 10 $FILM*.
*These are the subject-to-change numbers listed in the Gala Film Litepaper.
POPCORN! Buckets
Throughout the in-development stages of the Gala Film platform, POPCORN! has been used to reward operators of Gala Film’s Theater Nodes. POPCORN! Buckets of various sizes were also found in some Common Ground World Mystery Boxes, which are no longer for sale. Operators have received POPCORN! each day for which their Theater Nodes (formerly known as a “Gala Film Nodes”) were active for the minimum 6-hour requirement. Additionally, a bonus “streak” system (described below) was employed to ensure that extra POPCORN! rewards were given to those who operated their nodes for consecutive days.
Following the platform launch going forward, both NFT owners and Node operators will receive single units of POPCORN! instead of buckets. When this switch is made, the issuance of POPCORN! Buckets will be retired. Then when $FILM is first generated, all POPCORN! (whether single unit or Bucket) will be redeemable for $FILM.
Number of POPCORN! units in each bucket:
Welcome Bucket = 1 POPCORN!
Small Bucket = 10 POPCORN! Medium Bucket = 25 POPCORN! Large Bucket = 50 POPCORN! Extra Large Bucket = 100 POPCORN! Mega Bucket = 150 POPCORN!
These “Bucket” items will remain Buckets in your Collection until the $FILM token generation event, when all owners will have the option to exchange POPCORN! Buckets for $FILM, according to the values above + additional TBA streak bonuses.
POPCORN! That Never Goes Stale
Unlike your belly, your Gala account has room for all the POPCORN! you can gather. If you’re looking to start a new POPCORN! collection in anticipation of $FILM, this is your chance! Start collecting RZR Moments as soon as you can, and consider becoming a Theater Node operator to power the future of film!
Extra Action
There are plenty of ways to get rewards in addition to collecting Moments and running a Theater Node. Certain “Ecosystem Supporting Behaviors” will also allow you to collect POPCORN!, including some that are immediately available with the RZR premiere and platform launch!
Community Early Access to David Bianchi’s groundbreaking sci-fi thriller series, RZR, is officially live! This moment marks a unique opportunity for Gala Film NFT owners and Gala Film Theater Node operators to dive into the action before the rest of the world.
Early Access Details
Those who have passionately supported Gala Film by owning NFTs or operating Theater Nodes will be the first to explore the riveting universe of RZR with exclusive access all weekend long leading up to the global premiere on Sunday, April 14th.
For Gala Film enthusiasts who have yet to acquire any Gala Film NFTs but are eager to partake in the Early Access experience, there’s a golden opportunity awaiting. By purchasing a RZR Moment Pack, which includes a single NFT collectible Moment from an episode of RZR, not only will you unlock the door to early viewing, but you will also tap into the regular platform rewards that come with owning a Moment.
The Significance of RZR Moments
These Moments embody the essence of engagement and ownership within the Gala Film ecosystem. By holding a Moment, you’re not just a passive viewer; you become an active participant in the platform, receiving regular rewards and enjoying a closer connection to the content you love.
Because the Gala Film platform has not yet launched its official utility token, $FILM, a placeholder token called POPCORN! will initially be issued as the reward for both Theater Node operators and NFT Moment owners. The incredible news is that as long as RZR is the only production on the newly launched platform, 100% of the NFT owner rewards allocated to content incentivization will go to the owners of RZR Moments.

Welcome to the future of film, where your passion for cinema meets the endless possibilities of blockchain technology.
The suspense keeps building for the sci-fi tech thriller series that has everyone in web3 talking. From the visionary mind of creator David Bianchi, RZR promises to kick things off for Gala Film with a real bang, inviting you into the gritty and surreal world where computers collide with the human brain.
First off, if you’re not as psyched as we are for Sunday’s exclusive global premiere, it’s probably because you haven’t watched the new trailer. Do it now.
Mystery Boxes
Ready to dig deeper into the world and lore of RZR, giving yourself multiple shots at winning exclusive merch, creator experiences and more in the process? Then RZR Mystery Boxes are just for you.
Each Mystery Box contains four items and four chances to win.
Some Mystery Boxes will be yours for free just for completing simple tasks on the Gala Film platform, like watching episodes, sharing and more.
Some Mystery Boxes have chances at rarer items. These will cost you $3.99 in the Gala Film store. They’re called Premiere Mystery Boxes. Check out the list below for an idea of what you might find inside.
Director Cuts
Opening Mystery Boxes will primarily reveal Shards, which you can collect and assemble to unlock Director Cuts. Once unlocked, these Director Cuts reveal new video content that will pull you even deeper into the story’s labyrinth, revealing behind the scenes footage, additional backstories and more.
Shards
Shards are the building blocks of Director Cuts. Each Shard is assigned a different rarity, meaning some are tougher to find than others and some Director Cuts are more difficult to complete than others.
Director Cuts 7-10 = 1 Bronze Shard + 1 Silver Shard + 1 Golden Shard
Director Cuts 11-12 = 1 Bronze Shard + 2 Silver Shards + 3 Golden Shards
With 46 unique Shards and increasing degrees of collectible difficulty for assembling higher numbered Director Cuts, snagging them all will not be an easy feat. But if you do manage to collect every Shard and unlock every Director Cut, you’ll have unparalleled insight into the world and story of “RZR.”
Premiere Mystery Box: What’s Inside?
In addition to Shards that will unlock Director Cuts when completed as described above, you’ll sometimes find amazing prizes in Premiere Mystery Boxes. Check out the items and odds below!
Premiere Mystery Box Shard Odds
While unique numbered Shards are needed for each of the 12 Director Cuts, the odds of finding Shards is based primarily on Shard rarity:
60% of Shards are Bronze
30% of Shards are Silver
10% of Shards are Golden
Premiere Additional Prizes
While you’ll only find Shards in the no-cost (Starter, standard) Mystery Boxes, the $3.99 Premiere Mystery Boxes may contain additional prizes from the list below. One lucky Mystery Box will even contain the grand prize of a Gala Film Theater Node License.

Powered by Theater Nodes
The Gala Film platform brings a revolutionary decentralized approach to distribution of film content. Powered by a Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) through Gala Film’s Theater Node ecosystem, content is literally powered and delivered on the Decentralized Content Delivery Network (DCDN), allowing Theater Node operators to receive rewards for carrying the platform workload.
