❔FAQ's
Why a Token and not an NFT project?
Tokens are more liquid and more divisible. So simply sell half, and expect to receive half the rewards if you are staked! You can’t sell half an NFT.
Utilising tokens and non-custodial staking it allows the $UP technical team to use their proprietary software to send rewards daily to holders.
The team acknowledges that we will lose out on royalties but this is a sacrifice worth the cost in order to appeal more easily to a cross chain audience and grow larger as a community.

Why Invest in Mining When There Are Other Crypto Projects?

What Happens if Mining Becomes Unprofitable?
Diversified Operations: We continuously monitor and optimize our mining operations to ensure profitability and Dubai’s infrastructure is one of the best for operational efficiency. However, diversification is a key pillar of our roadmap we will be exploring with the community - together.
Adaptability: We are prepared to shift focus to other profitable areas within the crypto ecosystem if needed and with the teams skillset in marketing and software are capable of doing so.
Community Involvement: Decisions on major shifts in operations will involve community input and voting.
How Are Rewards Distributed?
Daily Rewards: Our proprietary, field-tested software ensures daily rewards distribution to all token holders.

Transparency: All reward distributions are transparent and can be verified on the blockchain. Rewards will also be available in an itemised way inside our bespoke project platform within 2 months of the token sale.
How Do You Handle Security?
Advanced Security Measures: We employ state-of-the-art security protocols to protect our assets and operations. They are monitored 24/7, with on-site personnel.
Regular Audits: Regular security audits by third-party firms and DEWA (a Dubai government entity) ensure the systems remain secure and robust.
Community Safeguards: Community voting on the blockchain ensure no major changes are made without consensus from holders.
