Vesting Schedules

Presale Vesting

Structure: NO VESTING - 100% at TGE

All presale participants receive 100% of their tokens immediately at Token Generation Event with no lock-up period.

Example:

  • Total Allocation: 100,000 tokens

  • TGE (100%): 100,000 tokens (fully unlocked)

Angel Vesting

Structure: 5% TGE + 3-month cliff + 18-month linear (21 months total)

Example:

  • Total Allocation: 1,000,000 tokens

  • TGE (5%): 50,000 tokens

  • Cliff (Months 1-3): 50,000 tokens

  • Month 12: 50,000 + (52,778 × 9) = 525,000 tokens

  • Month 21: 1,000,000 tokens (fully vested)

VC Vesting

Structure: 0-5% TGE + 6-month cliff + 24-month linear (30 months total)

Example (with 5% TGE):

  • Total Allocation: 8,333,333 tokens

  • TGE (5%): 416,667 tokens

  • Cliff (Months 1-6): 416,667 tokens

  • Month 12: 416,667 + (329,861 × 6) = 2,396,667 tokens

  • Month 30: 8,333,333 tokens (fully vested)

Team Vesting

Structure: 12-month cliff, then linear vesting over 36 months

Example:

  • Total Allocation: 1,000,000 tokens

  • Months 0-12: 0 tokens (cliff)

  • Month 24: 1,000,000 × (24-12)/36 = 333,333 tokens

  • Month 48: 1,000,000 tokens (fully vested)

Note: Presale has NO vesting - all 70M tokens are circulating at TGE. Actual circulating supply depends on staking, burns, and lock-ups.

Circulating Supply Formula

Circulatingmonth=category(TGEcategory+Vestedcategory,month)Circulating_{month} = \sum_{category} (TGE_{category} + Vested_{category,month})

Visualization:

Token Economics

Supply Control Formula

Buyback & Burn: 20% of quarterly net profits

Burnt=min(0.20×NPtPavg_t,Circulatingt)Burn_t = min(0.20 \times \frac{NP_t}{P_{avg\_t}}, Circulating_t)

Where:

  • NP_t = quarterly net profit

  • P_avg_t = VWAP during buyback window

Burns continue until total supply reaches 100,000,000, then funds redirect to treasury buffer or ecosystem grants.

Demand Drivers

1. Trading Fee Discounts

  • Estimated Annual Demand: 20M tokens

  • Based on volume and discount tiers

2. Staking Rewards

  • Target Staking Rate: 30-40%

  • Reduces Circulating Supply significantly

3. Governance Participation

  • Active governance: 10M tokens locked

4. IEO/Launchpad Access

  • Periodic demand spikes
