Point-in-time data is a token’s unlock schedule as it stood at a past date, built only from the project decisions that were public by that date. Point-in-Time (PIT) History serves this data: ask what a token’s unlock schedule looked like at a past date, and what changed since. Use it to backtest without look-ahead bias, audit how a schedule evolved, or trace a release back to the vote or announcement that created it. For the method behind it and a worked example, see Point-in-time data.

Endpoints

The allocations, daily emission and unlock events endpoints return the numbers of their v5 counterparts, computed from the version you select. They add a version selector, report the version that answered in metadata.version, and leave out USD fields. Each page lists its differences from v5. Point-in-Time History serves the tokens in Token List v5. A token that is not in that list answers 404 TOKEN_NOT_FOUND for every asOf, even if it was listed in the past.

Project versions

Each project decision (a new release, a cancelled one, a re-dated one) adds a project version, starting when the decision became public. asOf picks the project version in force at T, which answers “what could the market know about upcoming unlocks at T”. The versions endpoint lists a token’s project versions. Each one serves the latest data Tokenomist published for that version, including our later corrections. Tokenomist often publishes a change months after the project announced it. The project timeline dates each decision to its public announcement, so your backtest sees the decision when the market could, not when we recorded it. The project timeline starts at the token’s first version in our records, not at its launch date.

Our fixes never open a project version

Tokenomist sometimes corrects data that was public all along, such as a date, an amount or a precision. These corrections never open a project version. Each correction is folded into the project version it follows.

Version ids

Ids are permanent, so store id as returned and do not build it yourself. The data behind an id can still change when a correction is folded into the version or its decision is dated. You may store responses for your own permitted use; stored copies remain licensed and subject to the Terms of Service. The prefix is Tokenomist’s own token id. It is usually the same as the tokenId in the path, but for a few tokens it differs: galxe versions are project-galaxy-p-… and woo versions are woo-network-p-…. Send them back unchanged as versionId on the same token. historyOrder is the position within the timeline (1 = oldest). It can shift when an earlier version is added later, so do not use it as a key.

Choose a version

The allocations, daily emission and unlock events endpoints accept the same selector.
  • Omit both to get the current version evaluated now.
  • Send asOf or versionId, not both. A request with both answers 422 INVALID_PARAMETER.
  • A versionId is evaluated at the version’s start, or at the start of your plan’s range if that is later.
  • To compare how every version saw the same events, call an endpoint once per versionId from the versions endpoint.
  • asOf and versionId are case-sensitive, and each can be sent only once.

Applied version

Every response from the allocations, daily emission and unlock events endpoints reports which version answered it:

Known at T vs happened by T

  • Amounts are evaluated at asOf. Unlocked and locked supply reflect the UTC day of T, not today. Amounts are daily, so a release dated later on that same UTC day already counts as unlocked.
  • Future releases are still returned. Releases after T were the forecast at T, so they are included. Compare their dates with metadata.asOf.
  • Committed claims are filtered. Only claims with a timestamp on or before asOf are returned.
  • maxSupply is not versioned yet. History responses return the token’s max supply today, as v5 does, whatever the asOf.
  • USD fields are not returned, because historical prices after T would leak hindsight.

How a project version is dated

A project version starts on its announcement date when one is recorded, otherwise on its first publish on Tokenomist. validFromBasis tells you how the start date was established. An announcement can be dated earlier than the version before it. Versions keep their historyOrder, and the version in force at T is the one with the highest historyOrder that started on or before T. Such a version can end (validUntil, the next version’s start) before its own validFrom; no asOf selects it, but its versionId does.

Sources

Public sources are returned in full in changeReferences. A non-public source, such as a confirmation a project team sent us directly, is returned only as { "name": "Private source", "private": true }. sourceDate is present only when the date is stated in the source, on chain or archive-dated.

Errors

Errors use the v5 envelope with an added errorCode.
NO_VERSION_AT_AS_OF and an asOf or versionId outside your plan’s range also return earliestValidDate: the first instant that selects a version. Send it back as asOf to get that version. It is absent when no later version exists.

Access and credits

Your plan decides which point-in-time endpoints you can call, and how far back asOf and versionId can reach, counted from the start of today (UTC). The start / end window on daily emission and unlock events also follows your plan, as in v5, and is counted from today, not from asOf: an older asOf does not move it, so days before the window are not returned whatever version you select. Each successful request uses one credit, as in v5. Errors, 503 included, use none. Contact us for plan details.
