You can claim the rewards at any time without minimum threshold, but please assess the gas fee cost on your own *** **Distribution method** * To ensure a more stable and consistent distribution of rewards, we will operate on a monthly reward cycle, assessing the accumulated reward pool amount and market trading volume to determine the repurchase amount of ARBOT in market and the monthly allocation of rewards. * As for the amount of [$ARBOT](https://twitter.com/search?q=%24ARBOT\&src=cashtag_click) rewards in the next cycle, it will vary based on future taxes and subscription fees. we will announce it in advance a few days before the end of this cycle. * Monthly Distribution:
