What a level is

A level raises how much of every distribution your NFT takes, up to 3.00×, and it is earned by one thing only: keeping the NFT registered to the same wallet. There is nothing to buy. No progression token, no approval, no burn, no emission schedule, and no pot for anyone to fund. The contract reads a clock.
Every NFT climbs at the same rate. A King Broker and an Intern Broker reach the top level on the same day — rarity decides how large your slice is, never how fast you climb.

The schedule

Five levels. Each threshold is a fixed amount of unbroken tenure.

You press the button

Tenure is not weight until it is banked, and banking it is a call you make.
1

Check what you have earned

The app shows the level your tenure currently justifies, and how long is left until the next one. Reading it costs nothing and needs no transaction.
2

Bank it

Level up. Your weight rises in the same transaction, and the engine is told immediately.
3

Repeat at each threshold

Nothing is lost by waiting, but nothing is gained either.
A level is never automatic. A position that has earned level 4 and never banked it still carries level 0 weight and is paid as a level 0 holder. Press it when it is due — or bank several NFTs at once.
Levelling up sets your position to what the clock has earned; it does not increment. Calling it repeatedly cannot grant a level your tenure does not justify, and calling it early is refused rather than granting partial credit. Anyone may do it for any NFT — it can only ever apply what that NFT already earned, so there is nothing to gain by doing it on someone else’s.

The clock

Starts at registration

Not at mint, not at launch. Nobody is handed tenure for time before their position existed.

Dies with the sale

Clearing a position deletes the level, the clock and the entry it paid. The buyer starts at zero.
Moving the NFT at all restarts the clock — not only selling it. Sending it to a hardware wallet, into an escrow, or through a bundler looks identical to a sale from the contract’s side, because the only thing it can see is that ownership changed. There is no grace period.
This is the whole point of the design: the multiplier is a reward for holding, and it cannot be handed to somebody else. A borrowed NFT earns level 0 for the length of the loan, and the lender’s tenure is gone when it comes back.

Levelling does not lock your rewards

Registering raises weight, and that starts the four-hour withdrawal lock. Levelling up raises weight and does not. The engine is told which kind of rise it is hearing, so an earned level is exempt — and it is safe by construction rather than by policy, because the shortest level takes longer to reach than the longest lock the engine can be configured with.
This is why levelling is worth doing the moment it is due. It costs a transaction, applies immediately, and takes nothing away.

Why time rather than a token

An earlier design accrued a burnable point that holders spent on the same five multipliers. Time replaces it, on the same schedule, and removes four problems at once: nothing is minted, so there is no supply to model and no pot to fund; there is no second currency to approve and claim before it can be spent; there is no keeper or daily funding transaction to keep alive; and capital buys nothing — it is the same 150 days for the largest holder and the smallest. Comparable protocols sell their multiplier for a token, which makes it transferable in substance: whoever pays gets it. Tying it to time is what makes it mean the one thing this collection wants it to mean — that you are still here.
