Token Distribution

1. Community Rewards (50%)

   • Liquidity Mining (30%):

     • Emission Rate: Gradual daily emissions over a 5-year period.

     • Reduction Mechanism: Implement a declining emissions model (e.g., 20% reduction in rewards per year) to create a natural scarcity over time.

     • Unlock Schedule: Weekly claims to ensure liquidity providers have regular access without abrupt large releases.

   • Staking Rewards (10%):

     • Emission Rate: Constant daily releases for a 4-year period.

     • Unlock Schedule: Tokens will be claimed at regular intervals weekly, with an option to increase rewards for users who lock tokens for longer periods.

   • Bonds (5%):

     • Emission Rate: Released based on user demand, with a cap on discounts to prevent overspending.

     • Unlock Schedule: Immediate.

   • Ecosystem Growth (5%):

     • Emission Rate: Quarterly release based on project or community milestones.

     • Unlock Schedule: Controlled release based on project needs, with a 1-year vesting period to avoid oversupply.

   2. Founding Team & Advisors (20%)

   • Vesting Schedule: A 4-year schedule with a 1-year cliff to build investor confidence.

   • Monthly Vesting After Cliff: After the 1-year cliff, tokens can vest monthly or quarterly to provide consistent incentives.

   • Advisor Tokens: Generally on a 2-year vesting schedule with a 6-month cliff, tailored for advisory roles and limited commitments.

   3. Treasury and Governance (10%)

   • Initial Unlock (5% of Allocation): Reserve a small amount for immediate use in case of urgent governance or security measures.

   • Gradual Release: The rest is unlocked over 3–5 years, providing long-term stability for governance initiatives.

   • Vesting for Use: Tokens should be stored in a smart contract that vests based on community governance votes to allow funding of key projects over time.

   4. VC and Strategic Investors (15%)

   • Seed Round (5%): 2-year vesting with a 6-month cliff, allowing investors to show a commitment while offering them liquidity after the cliff.

   • Series A (5%): 18-month vesting with a 3-month cliff, enabling these early investors to gradually access their tokens.

   • Series B (5%): 1-year vesting, no cliff, as these investors are closer to launch and typically accept a shorter vesting period.

   • Rationale: These staggered vesting schedules prevent any single large unlock that could spook the market while providing consistent incentives for strategic investors.

   5. Public Sale (5%)

   • Initial Unlock (20%): A small portion unlocked at TGE (Token Generation Event) to ensure early supporters have immediate liquidity.

   • Linear Vesting (80%): Remaining tokens distributed over a 6-month period to avoid sudden market dumps.

   • Rationale: Shorter schedule than strategic investors but ensures the public sale aligns with token demand and initial liquidity support.
