## Luminar Avatar Rules

Luminars are the newest avatar race and provide a unique VIP tier boost.

| Rule | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **VIP Boost** | Assigning a Luminar avatar grants +1 VIP level immediately |
| **Eligibility** | User must have 500+ TH to benefit from the VIP boost |
| **Removal** | Removing the Luminar avatar immediately reverts the VIP level |
| **GoBox Reward** | A GoBox is issued once when the new VIP level is reached |
| **Re-assignment** | GoBox is **not** re-issued if the Luminar is removed and reassigned |
| **Bronze Protection** | Bronze GoBox is **not** issued to prevent farming exploits |

### Luminar VIP Boost Flow

1. User assigns a Luminar avatar to their miner.
2. If the user has 500+ TH, their VIP level increases by +1 immediately.
3. A GoBox corresponding to the new VIP level is issued (one-time).
4. If the user removes the Luminar avatar, VIP level reverts to the original.
5. Reassigning the same or different Luminar does **not** re-issue the GoBox for that level.
6. If the user is at Bronze tier, no GoBox is issued (anti-farming measure).

## FAQ

Assigning a Luminar avatar gives an immediate +1 VIP level boost if you have 500+ TH. The boost is removed if you unassign the avatar.

### Will I get another GoBox if I reassign a Luminar?
No. The GoBox is issued once per VIP level achieved through Luminar assignment. Removing and reassigning does not re-issue the GoBox.

### Can I trade my avatar on the marketplace?
Yes, all four avatar races (Humans, Sentinels, Cryptiles, Luminars) can be traded on the secondary marketplace.

### What is GoMining merch?
GoMining offers physical branded products that can be purchased through the marketplace ecosystem.
