# Token allocation & supply

This section defines DBT supply, allocations, and the token release schedule&#x20;

### Supply Overview

* **Total Supply at Genesis (minted at TGE):** 4,890,000,000 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:

$$
S\_{max} = S\_{genesis} + S\_{emissions}
$$

Where:

* S\_genesis = 4,960,031,642
* S\_max = 10,000,000,000
* S\_emissions = 5,039,968,358

### Token Allocation (Max Supply Basis)

All allocations below are expressed as a % of **Max Supply**.

| Allocation Bucket           |             Tokens | % of Max Supply |
| --------------------------- | -----------------: | --------------: |
| Seed Investors              |        845,600,000 |          8.456% |
| Private presale (investors) |        295,000,000 |          2.950% |
| Foundation / Treasury       |      1,339,400,000 |         13.394% |
| Team                        |      1,520,000,000 |         15.200% |
| Community Genesis           |     960,031,642.15 |          9.600% |
| Emission Rewards            |      5,039,968,358 |         50.396% |
| **Max Supply**              | **10,000,000,000** |     **100.00%** |

### 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:** 184,689,382 DBT
* **Circulating % at TGE (total):** \~ 1.84% 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.

### Exchange / Airdrop

```

* One-time unlock

### Foundation / Treasury

Unlocked in tranches:

* **100,000,000 DBT** at TGE
* **200,000,000 DBT** on 2026-08-31
* **300,000,000 DBT** on 2026-12-31
* **250,000,000 DBT** on 2027-12-31
* **304,400,000 DBT** on 2028-12-31&#x20;

Total: **1154,400,000 DBT**

### Private Sale

* **Starts:** AT TGE - 10% Unlock
* **Ends:** 2027-10-01
* Cliff: 6 months
* **Structure:** 11 monthly unlocks

Monthly unlock:

$$
\frac{295{,}000{,}000.01}{12} \approx 24{,}583{,}333.33 \text{ DBT/month}
$$

### Community Genesis

* **Starts:** AT TGE, Day 1 unlock of 3,308,600 DBT
* **Ends:** 2028-04-30
* **Structure:** staged monthly unlocks totalling 840,030,000 DBT

This bucket unlocks in phases:

1. **102,000,000 DBT/month** for 4 months
2. **30,000,000 DBT/month** for 14 months
3. Final month: **12,030,000 DBT**

### Seed Investors

* **Starts:** 2028-04-30
* **Ends:** 2030-03-31
* **Structure:** 24 monthly unlocks

Monthly unlock:

$$
\frac{845{,}599{,}999.92}{24} \approx 35{,}233{,}333.33 \text{ DBT/month}
$$

### Team

* **Starts:** 2028-04-30
* **Ends:** 2030-03-31
* **Structure:** 24 monthly unlocks

Monthly unlock:

$$
\frac{1{,}519{,}999{,}999.92}{24} \approx 63{,}333{,}333.33 \text{ DBT/month}
$$

## 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:

$$
E\_n = E\_0 \times (0.9)^n
$$

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
