Understand the Sun

The Sun keeps time on the Farm in Seasons and incentivizes cost-efficient and timely calling of the gm function.

You can view the Sun at the upper left corner of app.bean.money.

The Sun displays the current Season, which is the number of Seasons completed since gm was called for the first time. If Beans were minted during the current Season based on the peg maintenance mechanism, the Sun will appear as a rain cloud icon.

Selecting the Sun displays more detail on historical Seasons and a forecast for the next Season. The following information is shown for each Season:

• Number of new Beans minted,

• Soil made available in the Field,

• Temperature for Sowing Beans,

• Pod Rate, and

• Delta Demand, if it was used to measure Demand for Soil. If there is between 0 and 1 Soil remaining at the end of any Season, Delta Demand is not used.
