Staking Incentives

To limit the circulating supply at TGE, both early withdrawal penalties and long-term staking incentives have been created

Participant Types & Early Withdrawal

The system has 7 participant types divided into two categories: Hard-Locked (no early exit) and Flexible (can exit with penalty).

Hard-Locked Participants (No Early Exit)

Participant	Lock	Multiplier	Early Exit	TGE Unlock
Core Contributors	36 months	6.0x	NO	0%
Seed Investors	24 months	5.0x	NO	0%
Private Investors	18 months	4.5x	NO	0%
Strategic Investors	15 months	4.25x	NO	0%
Public Presale	6 months	2.5x	NO	25%

Flexible Participants (Early Exit Allowed)

Participant	Lock	Multiplier	Early Exit	Penalty
Airdrop Lockers	Variable	1.0-6.0x	YES	40% + clawback
Post-TGE Stakers	Variable	1.0-6.0x	YES	40% slash

Early Withdrawal Penalty Details

For the 2 flexible participant types, early withdrawal triggers:

Parameter	Value
Cooldown Period	7 days (universal)
Base Slash Rate	40% × (Time Remaining / Total Lock Duration)
USDC Forfeiture	100% of unclaimed rewards
Airdrop Bonus Clawback	100% of Founder bonus + redistribution bonus
Emissions Eligibility	Permanently ineligible for future emissions
Re-stake Restriction	Flexible tier only for 90 days after early exit

Post-TGE Staking Incentives

The Post-TGE Staking Incentive Reserve (20M base + unused Founder Bonus) drives continued staking engagement after TGE through strategic incentive campaigns.

TGE Circulating Supply

Source	Tokens	% of Supply
Instant Claim Airdrop (50% of base)	~160M	16%
Public Presale TGE Unlock (25%)	15M	1.5%
Protocol-Owned Liquidity	50M	5%
TOTAL CIRCULATING AT TGE	~225M	~22.5%

Key Insight: ~77.5% of supply is locked at TGE. This creates natural scarcity and demonstrates community commitment.
