01What this estimates
In the old Startup subscription activities, a higher VIP level got more "units". Gate published a max-allocation formula at the time, roughly VIP level squared times 10, with a per-user cap. This tool just visualises it: pick a level, see the max units. It does not apply to HODLer Airdrop, which splits by average GT holding over the project against all participants; there, VIP level only affects the personal cap on VIP-tagged projects.
Worth stressing: "units" is not "returns". Units cap how much of the new token you can claim, but what they're worth depends on the price after listing — which can rise or dump. More units is not more profit.
02More units ≠ worth stacking GT
VIP level mostly comes from holding GT (or trading volume). "Higher VIP, more units" tempts people to stack GT. But GT is a volatile asset: parking a large sum in GT for a few more units adds a side bet on GT's price. Size your launch activity first. We work that through in how much GT for VIP1.
