# Token Distribution

###

The **initial supply** of **BINK tokens** is strategically allocated to balance **short-term liquidity** with **long-term sustainability** and **ecosystem growth**.\
A portion of the tokens is designated for early investors across **Seed**, **Private**, and **Public** sale rounds—each with tailored pricing models, vesting schedules, and capital-raising goals.\
The remaining supply supports key pillars of the project, including **liquidity**, **ecosystem incentives**, **governance**, **marketing**, and **staking rewards**.

#### 🗓 Token Vesting Schedule

Below is a detailed breakdown of token allocation, including vesting periods, cliffs, and unlock rates:

***

| Category  | Allocation % | Vesting (mo.) | Cliff (mo.) | Total Duration | TGE Unlock |
| --------- | ------------ | ------------- | ----------- | -------------- | ---------- |
| Public    | 11%          | 12            | 0           | 12             | 15%        |
| Team      | 6%           | 24            | 10          | 34             | 10%        |
| Ecosystem | 8%           | —             | —           | —              | —          |
| Liquidity | 60%          | —             | —           | —              | —          |
| Treasury  | 10%          | —             | —           | —              | —          |
| Rewards   | 5%           | —             | —           | —              | —          |

#### 🔓 Notes:

* **Cliff**: Duration during which no tokens are released.
* **TGE**: Token Generation Event (initial unlock).
* **Monthly Release**: Applies linearly after the cliff, unless otherwise specified.

This structure ensures that **early supporters are rewarded**, while long-term alignment is maintained across the team, investors, and ecosystem contributors.
