# Risk Protection

To mitigate the risks of downgrading or breakage during dNFT levelling, protection mechanisms can be activated to bolster the resilience of dNFTs against these risks associated with levelling failures. This allows dNFT holders to pursue dNFT levelling with greater assurance and reduced apprehension upon the risk mechanics involved.

The significance of the risk protection mechanics becomes most evident when dNFTs are situated at upper echelons. As dNFTs ascend to higher levels, the inherent odds of a successful upgrade become remarkably slim. This positions the risk protection mechanics as an invaluable asset, acting as a safety net against the fallout of dNFT levelling setbacks.

To enable risk protection, an allocation of a specific amount of LiV (contingent upon the dNFT’s level) will be required. This LiV costing serves a dual purpose: it fortifies dNFTs against the risks mechanics associated with levelling failures, whilst accentuates the intrinsic utility and value of LiV within the larger BLiV ecosystem.
