🗓️Token allocation & supply

Note: The numbers in this document are indicative and not final. They reflect the current framework discussed in Townhall 23 and may change based on community feedback and final launch parameters. We recommend reading this alongside the Townhall recording for full context.

This section defines DBT supply, allocations, and the token release schedule

Supply Overview

  • Total Supply at Genesis (minted at TGE): 4,840,030,000 DBT

  • Max Supply: 10,000,000,000 DBT

Genesis supply represents tokens minted at TGE across non-emission allocations. Max supply includes long-term emissions.

The relationship is:

Smax=Sgenesis+SemissionsS_{max} = S_{genesis} + S_{emissions}

Where:

  • S_genesis = 4,840,030,000

  • S_max = 10,000,000,000

  • S_emissions = 5,159,970,000

Circulating Supply at TGE

Circulating supply at TGE is defined as the subset of genesis-minted tokens that are unlocked and transferable at TGE.

  • Circulating Supply at TGE: 314,527,168.33 DBT

  • Circulating % at TGE (total): ~ 3.14% of total supply.

Release Schedule Summary

The release schedule is defined in epochs (monthly). Below is a summary of when each bucket begins releasing and when it completes its release within the modeled horizon.

Note: Emission rewards continue beyond the modeled monthly horizon, with a remaining “thereafter” balance.

Emission Rewards and Long-Term Supply

Estimated Validator / Emission Rewards are distributed over time and represent the largest share of total supply.

  • Total Emission Allocation: 5,159,970,000 DBT

  • Emissions follow a 10% annual decay.

Annual decay model:

En=E0×(0.9)nE_n = E_0 \times (0.9)^n

Within the modeled horizon, a portion of emissions unlocks monthly, and the remaining balance is represented as a “thereafter” allocation to complete the max supply schedule

Summary

DBT supply is designed such that:

  • Non-emission allocations are fully scheduled within the modeled horizon

  • Emissions continue over a longer period with 10% annual decay

  • Circulating supply at TGE is materially lower than total genesis supply due to vesting
