Token Distribution & Burn Mechanics
Version: 2.2 | Last Updated: July 18, 2026 | Status: Mainnet Live (Solana + Base)
Token Allocation
| Category | % | Tokens | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ecosystem & Rewards | 40% | 400,000,000 | Staking rewards, airdrops, developer grants, community incentives |
| Treasury | 25% | 250,000,000 | DAO-governed, partnerships, reserves, emergency fund |
| Team & Advisors | 15% | 150,000,000 | Core team, advisors (4-year vesting, 1-year cliff) |
| Liquidity | 15% | 150,000,000 | DEX pools (Raydium, Uniswap), market making, bridges |
| Public Sale | 10% | 100,000,000 | IDO, fair launch, initial distribution |
Burn
$SUDIGITAL has a fixed 1B supply and an annual emission cap of 10M tokens. Only one burn source is live today.
Live: NFT Minting Fees
- First mint: 75% to platform, 25% burned.
- Subsequent mints: 1% founder, 1% creator, 98% platform — of which 25% burned (24.5% of the mint).
Implemented on-chain in sudigital-nft (Solana) and NftModule (EVM).
Planned (not live)
- Mission / ecosystem fee burn (Phase 2, Month 3+): 50% of the 5% ecosystem fee burned.
enabled: false. - DEX trading fee burn (Phase 3, Month 6+, governance): 25% of trading fees burned.
enabled: false.
Not implemented
- Liquidation penalties
- DAO buy-back & burn
These appear in earlier drafts but have no on-chain implementation. Source of truth: packages/nft/src/constants/tokenomics.ts (BURN_PHASES).
Burn Governance
| Phase | Period | Control |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | Months 0-6 | Fixed burn rates (investor predictability) |
| Phase 2 | Months 6-12 | Community votes on adjustments (50% approval + 4% quorum) |
| Phase 3 | Month 12+ | Full DAO governance over all burn parameters |
Any projection of net supply depends on activity and future phase activation; it is not a guarantee.
Emission Schedule
| Year | Ecosystem Pool | Annual Emission | Remaining |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 400,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 390,000,000 |
| 2 | 390,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 380,000,000 |
| 3 | 380,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 370,000,000 |
| 4 | 370,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 360,000,000 |
| 5 | 360,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 350,000,000 |
- Ecosystem pool: 400M tokens (40%)
- Annual cap: 10M tokens (2.5% of pool)
- Pool lifetime: 40+ years at maximum emission
- Net supply: depends on future burn phases (see Burn); projections are not guarantees
Reward Earn Tiers
SUDIGITAL is not sold and not listed — it is a closed-loop earn token. Users earn it two ways: (1) an airdrop to eligible users, and (2) as a reward for spending on plans, credits, missions, and prediction markets. The earn rate follows a tiered ladder over a 1M-token budget (0.1% of supply, 10% of annual emission). There is no public market in the current (utility) release — trading opens in the public sale phase. Until then these rates are internal accounting, not a price. The Phase-1 1M budget covers roughly $95K of on-platform spend; subsequent phases draw the remainder of the 20M spend-reward allocation.
| Tier | Name | Tokens distributed | SUDIGITAL per $1 earned |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Phase 1 · Seed | 0 – 250K | 20 |
| 2 | Phase 1 · Bot | 250K – 500K | 12.5 |
| 3 | Phase 1 · Cyborg | 500K – 750K | ~9 |
| 4 | Phase 1 · Singularity | 750K – 1M | ~7 |
Rewards Pool Allocation
The 40% Ecosystem & Rewards allocation (400M) is split as follows:
| Use | Share | Tokens |
|---|---|---|
| Staking rewards | 45% | 180M |
| Mission rewards | 20% | 80M |
| Airdrop program | 20% | 80M |
| Spend rewards (ladder) | 5% | 20M |
| Grants & community | 10% | 40M |
Airdrop Program
Airdrops are the first earn channel: free distribution to eligible users across four equal-cap seasons (80,000,000 SUDIGITAL = 20% of the 400M Ecosystem & Rewards pool = 8% of supply, inside the industry 6.78–15% band). Only the live season is claimable; later seasons are scheduled so the full plan is visible, and unclaimed tokens roll to the next season. Caps are equal because the user base grows over time — as more wallets qualify, the same cap yields a smaller per-wallet amount (natural early-bird: early adopters earn most).
| Season | Name | Cap | Share | Window | Focus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Launch | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2026-10-10 → 2027-01-08 | Early adopters — paid, missions, NFTs, community, testers |
| 2 | Growth | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2027-01-09 → 2027-04-08 | Active users — missions, predictions, holds |
| 3 | Expansion | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2027-04-09 → 2027-07-08 | New products and referrals |
| 4 | Harvest | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2027-07-09 → 2027-10-08 | Long-term holders and governance |
Season 1 details: one claim per wallet; base 4,000 SUDIGITAL per eligible wallet — exactly the Memer launch price, so 1 airdrop = 1 Memer (season weights tune the amount up for active users); eligibility weights — paid customer 35 · mission/NFT participant 30 · waitlist/community 20 · early tester 15. Caps with rollover — actual distribution = eligible wallets × base (Season 1 planned at ~5,000 wallets ≈ the 20M cap), and unclaimed tokens roll forward. Eligibility snapshot: 2026-10-09 23:59 UTC (eligibility fixed before claims open). Anti-Sybil: wallet age ≥ 30 days and ≥1 eligible signal. Vesting: 25% claimable at claim time + 75% linear over 180 days (best practice once listed; disable via AIRDROP_VESTING.immediateBps = 10000 during the unlisted phase).

Sources
- Airdrop: eligible users claim the current season (see Airdrop Program).
- Payments: Stripe / Xendit / crypto purchases auto-earn SUDIGITAL at the active tier.

Safety
- Reward budget capped at 1M tokens → worst-case exploit dilutes only 0.1% of supply.
- Earn rate decreases as the budget is consumed, so early participants earn the most.
- Supports the planned burn program (see Burn); net-supply outcomes are projections, not guarantees.
Mission Reward Distribution
| Recipient | Share | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Winners | 80% | Mission winners split proportionally |
| NFT ID Holders | 15% | Digital identity NFT holders earn passively |
| Ecosystem | 5% | Platform development and burns |
Year 1 projection: $12M/year in mission rewards across 1,000 missions/month with 10,000 active users.

| 90 Days | 8% | $2.0M |
| 180 Days | 10% | $2.5M |
| 365 Days | 15% | $3.75M (Phase 2) |
APY Funding Sources
- Mission Ecosystem Fund (40%) — 5% of all mission rewards ($600K/year)
