# Community Harvest

Users' rewards are harvested and invested using a share of the pooled user rewards to cover the cost of transaction (gas) fees.

### **Self-Funded Drain:** 

Dracula Protocol utilizes a mechanism referred to as "**Drain**" by funding gas costs of reclaiming and distributing tokens through spending a portion of all asset yields issued underlying platforms to pay for reward distributions.  Think of **Drain** as a way to crowdfund gas costs with all Dracula Protocol users meaning the more value locked in Dracula Protocol (TVL) the cheaper the cost per user! 

The **Drain** is currently being executed manually by the team to prevent front-running until our integration with a Keep3r / Chainlink is complete.
