Each tier is set up to give more rewards, reflecting the level of investment. The higher the tier, the more significant the perks. In order to qualify for a tier, you need to stake your $YODHA tokens. **Gold Tier (10,000 $YODHA)** * Loyalty Rewards * Pool reserve (when possible) * Chance to join private sales * **YODHA INSURANCE​** [🔒](https://emojipedia.org/locked) **2. Platinum Tier (25,000 $YODHA)** * **​YODHA INSURANCE​** [🔒](https://emojipedia.org/locked) * Increased Allocation Size * Potential lower price entry to token launches **3. Diamond Tier (50,000 $YODHA)** * Guaranteed whitelist on any future project. * **Bigger allocation** (varies depending on the raise) * **​MAX % on YODHA INSURANCE​** [🔒](https://emojipedia.org/locked) * Priority investment (Always first, varies depending on the IDO) * VIP Pricing in Private Rounds * Potential lower price entry on upcoming IDOs * Potential bonus tokens if purchased To keep Yodha fair and stable, we've set a cooldown period for moving between tier levels. ### FAQ **1. What are Pool Reserves?** Pool reserved is **the allocation that a tier gets**. **Example:** Project X wants to raise 100 SOL If the Gold tier has a 20% reserve, it means 20 SOL (20% of 100 SOL) is reserved only for gold. **2. What if the highest tier isn't able to fill out their pool reserve ?** The remaining pool allocation is then offered to the tier below it. **Example:** *If the Diamond tier has a 60% allocation of the entire round and they were only able to fill out 40% of it, the remaining 10% would go towards the platinum tier.* **3. What is YODHA INSURANCE**[**🔒**](https://emojipedia.org/locked)**?** Yodha Insurance is a protective feature offered by the Yodha platform, designed to safeguard investors' funds in case of adverse events such as a security breach or a significant drop in token value post-launch. **4. Do I need to stake my tokens to be in a tier?** Yes, in order to be in a tier you need to stake your tokens.
