# Our Tier System

Below are the various tier systems & the corresponding amount of $YANG tokens required to participate.

<table data-header-hidden><thead><tr><th width="145"></th><th width="231"></th><th></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>TIERS SYSTEM</strong></td><td><strong>TOKENS REQUIRED IN WALLET</strong></td><td><strong>ELIGIBILITY</strong></td></tr><tr><td>Silver Tier</td><td>0 - 150.000 $YANG</td><td>Voting on Proposals</td></tr><tr><td>Gold Tier</td><td>150.000 -250.000 $YANG </td><td>Voting on Proposals + Revenue Sharing (10%)</td></tr><tr><td>Diamond Tier</td><td>250.000 or more $YANG</td><td>Voting on Proposals + Submit Proposals + Revenue Sharing (10%)</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Dynamic Tier Thresholds

To preserve the exclusivity and value of our premium tiers, the amount of $YANG required to achieve Silver, Gold, and Diamond status will increase by 10% annually. This adjustment occurs every January 30th.

#### Strategic Objectives

* Incentivizing Early Adoption: This model rewards early supporters by allowing them to secure higher tier statuses at a lower entry point compared to future participants.
* Preserving Tier Exclusivity: As more members join the ecosystem, the 10% annual increase ensures that top-tier benefits remain concentrated among the most dedicated contributors.
* Long-Term Value Protection: By systematically raising the "bar" for entry, we manage the distribution of $YANG and protect the long-term value of the token for all loyal holders.
