Perhaps a very exclusive tier. 90-100 nights per year or $100k spend on a credit card.
Like anything else, over the years, there will simply be too many people at Diamond if they don't
The trouble with that is that that would only really work in the US, where you can obtain your Diamond with Credit Card and Hilton has locations just about anywhere.

On the road in Europe no chance to get to 100 nights/year with Hilton (or any hotel brand really) unless you are project bound somewhere for an extended period. The Hilton footprint is simply too small. Also no easy shortcuts to Diamond with credit card & manufactured spending.
