Linkvertise Earning & Economy Rebalance
- New Linkvertise earning method: complete a short ad link and earn 50 Witchly Coins per link, up to 2 links per day (max 100 coins/day). Server-verified — bypass tools and ad-blockers receive no credit.
- The Earn page is now a hub: choose between AFK Void Siphoning and Linkvertise to earn coins in the way that suits you.
- Daily Ritual now requires completing a Linkvertise link to claim your streak reward — a single action earns both the link reward and the daily bonus.
- AFK Void Siphoning rate adjusted to 1 coin per 120 seconds (30 coins/hour, 250 coins/day cap).
- Daily-ritual streak rewards rebalanced across 7 days: 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 150 coins — reaching a full-week haul of 460 coins, with 150 coins per day once the streak is established.

A Richer Global Leaderboard
- Redesigned leaderboard with a top-3 podium for both the richest initiates and the master recruiters
- New "Your Standing" card shows your own coin and referral rank — even when you are outside the top 10
- Realm stats at a glance: total members, coins in circulation, and active servers
- Every entry now shows more about each player — daily streak, active server count, and how long they have been with Witchly
- Cleaner two-column layout with both leaderboards sitting side by side
Feature June 6, 2026
Console Log Filters
- The in-browser console now has filter tabs to help you find what matters faster
- Filter by ALL, INFO, WARN, ERROR, DEBUG, or INSTALL — so you can jump straight to warnings, errors, or install/reinstall output
- Each tab shows a live count of matching log entries
Improvement June 4, 2026
Fairer, Pool-Based Server Renewals
- Free server renewal now scales with your resource pool — a starter server still renews for 500 coins, and the cost only grows if you choose to upgrade your RAM, CPU, or disk
- Your total renewal is now split across your active servers — run two and each renews for a share of the total instead of paying full price twice
- The store now shows exactly how a resource upgrade will change your weekly renewal (total and per-server) before you confirm
- Recreating a server you let lapse now costs its share of the renewal rather than a flat fee — so there is no advantage to cycling servers and no harsh penalty for a genuine mistake

Console Polish & Live Server State
- Live server state badge in the console — shows RUNNING, STARTING, STOPPING, or OFFLINE in real time with matching colors
- "Jump to latest" pill appears in the corner when you scroll up through old log lines, smoothly scrolls back to the latest output
- Installing or reinstalling a server now streams the install script live in the console with a clear banner; tabs and power actions lock until it finishes, then unlock automatically
