**Automatic Tier Upgrades**

* **Purpose**: This feature is designed to recognize and reward the ongoing commitment of our users, promoting a stable and engaged community.

This staking model is central to our strategy of building a robust and dynamic ecosystem where the benefits scale with user involvement and investment. By encouraging users to hold and stake $FRGP, we aim to reduce volatility and ensure a steady demand for the token, which supports overall ecosystem health and sustainability.
