Token Distribution & Burn Mechanics
Version: 2.2 | Last Updated: July 18, 2026 | Status: Mainnet Live (Solana + Base)
Token Allocation
The five-bucket split — and the plain-language explanation of what each one funds — lives in the token overview. It is the single source of truth for the allocation; this page covers only how the supply is released and burned.
Burn
$SUDIGITAL has a fixed 1B supply and an annual emission cap of 10M tokens. Only one burn source is live today.
Live: NFT Minting Fees
- First mint: 75% to platform, 25% burned.
- Subsequent mints: 1% founder, 1% creator, 98% platform — of which 25% burned (24.5% of the mint).
Implemented on-chain in sudigital-nft (Solana) and NftModule (EVM).
Planned (not live)
- Mission / ecosystem fee burn (Phase 2, Month 3+): 50% of the 5% ecosystem fee burned.
enabled: false. - DEX trading fee burn (Phase 3, Month 6+, governance): 25% of trading fees burned.
enabled: false.
Not implemented
- Liquidation penalties
- DAO buy-back & burn
These appear in earlier drafts but have no on-chain implementation. Source of truth: packages/nft/src/constants/tokenomics.ts (BURN_PHASES).
Burn Governance
| Phase | Period | Control |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | Months 0-6 | Fixed burn rates (investor predictability) |
| Phase 2 | Months 6-12 | Community votes on adjustments (50% approval + 4% quorum) |
| Phase 3 | Month 12+ | Full DAO governance over all burn parameters |
Any projection of net supply depends on activity and future phase activation; it is not a guarantee.
Emission Schedule
| Year | Ecosystem Pool | Annual Emission | Remaining |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 400,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 390,000,000 |
| 2 | 390,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 380,000,000 |
| 3 | 380,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 370,000,000 |
| 4 | 370,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 360,000,000 |
| 5 | 360,000,000 | 10,000,000 | 350,000,000 |
- Ecosystem pool: 400M tokens (40%)
- Annual cap: 10M tokens (2.5% of pool)
- Pool lifetime: 40+ years at maximum emission
- Net supply: depends on future burn phases (see Burn); projections are not guarantees
Reward Earn Tiers
SUDIGITAL is not sold and not listed — it is an earn token with no market quote. Users earn it two ways: (1) an airdrop to eligible users, and (2) as a reward for spending on plans, credits, missions, and prediction markets. The earn rate follows a tiered ladder over a 1M-token budget (0.1% of supply, 10% of annual emission). There is no public market in the current (utility) release — trading opens in the public sale phase. Until then these rates are internal accounting, not a price. The Phase-1 1M budget covers roughly $200K of on-platform spend; subsequent phases draw the remainder of the 20M spend-reward allocation.
| Tier | Name | Tokens distributed | SUDIGITAL per $1 earned |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Phase 1 · Seed | 0 – 250K | 6.5 |
| 2 | Phase 1 · Bot | 250K – 500K | 5.5 |
| 3 | Phase 1 · Cyborg | 500K – 750K | 4.5 |
| 4 | Phase 1 · Singularity | 750K – 1M | 3.5 |
Rewards Pool Allocation
The 40% Ecosystem & Rewards allocation (400M) is split as follows:
| Use | Share | Tokens |
|---|---|---|
| Staking rewards | 45% | 180M |
| Mission rewards | 20% | 80M |
| Airdrop program | 20% | 80M |
| Spend rewards (ladder) | 5% | 20M |
| Grants & community | 10% | 40M |
Airdrop Program
Airdrops are the first earn channel: free distribution to eligible users across four equal-cap seasons (80,000,000 SUDIGITAL = 20% of the 400M Ecosystem & Rewards pool = 8% of supply, inside the industry 6.78–15% band). Only the live season is claimable; later seasons are scheduled so the full plan is visible, and unclaimed tokens roll to the next season. Caps are equal because the user base grows over time — as more wallets qualify, the same cap yields a smaller per-wallet amount (natural early-bird: early adopters earn most).
| Season | Name | Cap | Share | Window | Focus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Launch | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2026-10-10 → 2027-01-08 | Early adopters — paid, missions, NFTs, community, testers |
| 2 | Growth | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2027-01-09 → 2027-04-08 | Active users — missions, predictions, holds |
| 3 | Expansion | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2027-04-09 → 2027-07-08 | New products and referrals |
| 4 | Harvest | 20,000,000 | 25% | 2027-07-09 → 2027-10-08 | Long-term holders and governance |
Season 1 details: one claim per wallet; base 4,000 SUDIGITAL per eligible wallet — exactly the Memer launch price, so 1 airdrop = 1 Memer (season weights tune the amount up for active users); eligibility weights — paid customer 35 · mission/NFT participant 30 · waitlist/community 20 · early tester 15. Caps with rollover — actual distribution = eligible wallets × base (Season 1 planned at ~5,000 wallets ≈ the 20M cap), and unclaimed tokens roll forward. Eligibility snapshot: 2026-10-09 23:59 UTC (eligibility fixed before claims open). Anti-Sybil: wallet age ≥ 30 days and ≥1 eligible signal. Vesting: 25% claimable at claim time + 75% linear over 180 days (best practice once listed; disable via AIRDROP_VESTING.immediateBps = 10000 during the unlisted phase).
Source of truth: claim_conditions (seeder claim-condition-seeder.ts); constants in packages/nft/src/constants/launch.ts (AIRDROP_SEASONS).
Sources
- Airdrop: eligible users claim the current season (see Airdrop Program).
- Payments: Stripe / Xendit / crypto purchases auto-earn SUDIGITAL at the active tier.
- DB source of truth:
token_pricing_tiers(managed via seedertoken-pricing-seeder.ts). - UI mirror:
TOKEN_REWARD_TIERSinpackages/nft/src/constants/tokenomics.ts.
Safety
- Reward budget capped at 1M tokens → worst-case exploit dilutes only 0.1% of supply.
- Earn rate decreases as the budget is consumed, so early participants earn the most.
- Supports the planned burn program (see Burn); net-supply outcomes are projections, not guarantees.
Mission Reward Distribution
| Recipient | Share | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Winners | 80% | Mission winners split proportionally |
| NFT ID Holders | 15% | Shared across every reward-eligible role NFT holder, not a second 15% on top of the 80% |
| Ecosystem | 5% | Platform development and burns |
Prize pools are funded by mission entry fees, and the split above is enforced by the economy program. No dollar volume is published: a reward figure would be a claim about activity that has not happened, and the platform's whole Year 1 revenue target is $1M (see Targets).
Staking System
APY Tiers
| Lock Period | APY | Basis Points |
|---|---|---|
| Flexible | 5% | 500 |
| 30 Days | 5% | 500 |
| 90 Days | 8% | 800 |
| 180 Days | 10% | 1,000 |
| 365 Days | 15% | 1,500 |
Cost is bounded by the 10,000,000-token annual emission cap, not by TVL: whatever the stake, a year of staking cannot pay out more than 10M tokens. That is 1% of supply, and it is the number that must reconcile with the rates — which is why no per-tier dollar cost is published here. A dollar cost would assume a TVL that does not exist and a token price that is not set.
APY Funding Sources (design)
The target split, and it is a target: no code enforces it, and 40+35+15+10 is a share of future revenue that has not been earned.
- Mission ecosystem fund (40%) — the 5% slice of every mission reward
- DEX trading fees (35%)
- NFT royalties (15%) — the 20% royalty take on secondary sales
- Treasury (10%)
The Year 4 goal is staking funded fully by protocol revenue, without emissions. Until then the funding source is emissions, and only within the 10M/yr cap.
Anti-Whale Protection
| Protection | Value |
|---|---|
| Max stake per wallet | 100,000 tokens (0.01% supply) |
| Annual emission cap | 10,000,000 tokens |
| Daily emission cap | ~27,397 tokens |
Public Sale
No sale is active. The 10% Public Sale bucket exists in the allocation, and that is the only fact this page publishes about it.
No price, FDV, soft or hard cap, sale window, buyer vesting schedule or discount is published here, because none is active and a published term is an offer. When a sale opens, its terms are agreed and published before it starts — not before.

Solana mainnet SPL mint: AwweVVcQ9uubfZoJt6dCE4E64CywU2i2gG57FrtCE8jk (decimals 6, fixed 1B supply). The Ecosystem & Rewards allocation (400M) funds on-chain airdrop escrows (program-controlled pools) that the airdrop processor auto-distributes from; escrows are topped up from the Squads multisig treasury vault. Mainnet AirdropEscrow id=1 is live (400M funded; escrow PDA FPEerKoj…, token acct 93MADi…).
