7. Tokenomics

Token Distribution and Allocation

The $APC token has a maximum supply of 10 billion tokens, distributed according to the following structure:

  • Presale (20%): 2 billion $APC tokens are allocated for the presale, which will take place in 20 stages. Each stage will offer a different price point, allowing early participants to purchase $APC at discounted rates before the public sale.

  • Staking Rewards (30%): 3 billion tokens are reserved for staking rewards, distributed over time to incentivize holders to stake their tokens. This approach ensures the platform’s security and rewards long-term participation.

  • Project Development (20%): 2 billion tokens will be allocated to the core development of the Ape Chrono platform, which includes ongoing development, operational costs, team allocation, and ensuring the platform's sustainability.

  • Liquidity (10%): 1 billion tokens are set aside to provide liquidity for exchanges, ensuring smooth trading and ease of access for users.

  • Marketing and Partnerships (20%): 2 billion tokens are reserved for marketing campaigns, partnerships (including BRINKS), and community-building activities to drive platform adoption.

Vesting and Lock-Up Periods

To ensure the long-term sustainability and stability of Ape Chrono, the following vesting and lock-up periods apply:

  • Team Allocation (Part of Project Development): Locked for 12 months, with a linear release over the following 24 months.

  • Presale Tokens: Some presale stages may have a lock-up period to stabilize the market, details of which will be disclosed during each stage.

  • Staking Rewards: Distributed monthly over a period of several years, based on staking participation and platform activity.

Burn Mechanism

Ape Chrono will implement a burn mechanism to enhance the value of $APC over time. A small percentage of transaction fees will be used to buy back and burn $APC tokens, reducing the overall supply and supporting the token's value.
