### Community Rewards –  26%

Allocated to incentivize sustained contribution from the network. Rewards are distributed through the Incentiv+ Engine across epochs and vest linearly over 60 months. Supports miners, developers, bundlers, liquidity providers, and active users.

### Short-Term Growth Fund (STGF) –  17%

Reserved for operational support and early ecosystem acceleration. This includes partnerships, developer grants, liquidity programs, user-growth initiatives, and core operational expenses. Vesting occurs linearly over 24 months.

### Long-Term Growth Fund (LTGF) – 20%

Holds tokens for long-horizon initiatives that compound network value. Vesting occurs linearly over 60 months.

### Sale – 22%

Tokens allocated for sale follow a structured release: 3.5% at TGE, 12.5% over the first 12 months, and the remaining 6% from months 13–24.

### Team & Advisors – 15%

Reserved for contributors and protocol builders. Tokens are locked for 12 months, followed by linear vesting over 24 months to ensure long-term alignment.

## Emission Phases

<Steps>
  <Step title="Genesis Phase – Bootstrapping Growth">
    Early emissions are higher to jumpstart adoption, liquidity, and developer activity. A preloaded Community Rewards reserve ensures meaningful payouts and attracts early participants.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Retention Phase – Aligning Incentives with Performance">
    Rewards shift toward performance-based metrics like XP, Holder Score, and sustained activity. Active contributors earn proportionally higher rewards, reinforcing network health.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sustainable Phase – Fee-Based Equilibrium">
    Emissions taper while protocol fees become the primary reward source. All rewards eventually come from real on-chain activity, creating a stable, fee-driven economy.
