A Vulcan alternative for token-gated Discord roles, with verification and community tools in one place.

If your server runs Vulcan today and you are reviewing your options, this page covers what NXT includes and how to move each part of your setup over. NXT puts token-gated roles, captcha, support tickets, giveaways, and sales, art, and floor bots in one dashboard.

Map your setup module by module

A server often uses one bot for several jobs at once: verification, an entry gate, a sales channel, giveaways. When you evaluate a replacement, map each job separately, because each one moves on its own schedule.

In NXT, each of those jobs is a module in the same dashboard, and every module is available on every plan. Token-gated roles use ten rule kinds. The captcha is an image challenge inside Discord. Tickets are private threads with transcripts. Giveaways can be weighted by roles or by NFTs held, and winners are re-checked at the draw.

Start with verification, since it affects the most members, then move the other modules one at a time.

NXT modules to map against

Token-gated roles

Ten rule kinds on any EVM chain, with members verifying without a wallet connection.

Captcha

An image code solved inside Discord in an ephemeral message, assigning a role on success.

Support tickets

Private threads with intake questions, holder context for staff, and transcripts.

Giveaways

Weighted by roles or NFTs held, with wallet collection and winners re-checked at draw.

Sales bot

On-chain sales with image, price, and OpenSea and transaction links.

Art and floor bots

Show any token with its traits, or the floor price on chains OpenSea supports.

Switching from Vulcan. Both bots run side by side.

  1. Move verification first

    Add NXT, recreate each role rule against the same Discord roles, and post the NXT verify panel while Vulcan keeps running.

  2. Move the entry gate

    Set up NXT captcha in a gate channel and update channel permissions to use its role.

  3. Move the rest

    Recreate sales feeds, ticket categories, and upcoming giveaways in NXT, then retire the old modules.

Keeping access steady

NXT never removes roles from members who have not linked a wallet on NXT, so members who take a while to re-verify keep the roles your current bot gave them.

For sales feeds, note that NXT posts sales from the moment a sales bot is created and does not backfill past sales, so create the NXT feed before you turn the old one off. For giveaways, let draws already running finish where they started and create new ones in NXT.

Vulcan is a trademark of its owner. NXT is an independent product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Vulcan. This page describes NXT only; check the other product's own documentation for its current features.

Questions and straight answers.

Can I move one module at a time?
Yes. Each NXT module is configured separately, so you can move verification first and the other modules later.
Are captcha, tickets, and giveaways extra?
No. Every feature is on every plan, including the free plan.
Do I need to recreate my Discord roles?
No. Point NXT rules at the roles you already have. Move the NXT role above them in Server Settings > Roles.
Where can I get help with the move?
Use the Get help form on the support page and choose the setting topic. The migration guide in the docs covers each step.
