Tokenomics
Detailed view of allocations and release schedules
Overview
The Tokenomics pane provides a full-screen, detailed view of a project’s allocations and release schedules. Here, you can explore every allocation in more detail.
Accessing Tokenomics
You can access the Tokenomics pane directly from a project’s token page. Once inside, you’ll find three main tabs at the top:
Allocation: a breakdown of each allocation, including progress, unreleased amounts, and upcoming cliffs.
Group Allocation: the Standard Allocations view, showing a breakdown of allocations into Tokenomist’s Standard Allocations.
Release Mechanism: a classification of the methods through which supply is distributed. This view is in development and will be expanding soon. Please refer to Release Mechanisms for more information.
How to Use Tokenomics
You can use the Tokenomics pane to
Track how much of an allocation has been released and how much remains locked.
See when the next cliff or release event is coming.
Compare allocations side by side in the chart and release schedule.
Investigate assumptions or governance dependencies (e.g., treasuries requiring DAO approval before distribution).
Clicking on any allocation row opens a modal with detailed information: precision, assumptions, release method, references, and allocation-specific release schedules.
Why It Matters
Tokenomics defines the long-term sustainability of a project. A project may have strong fundamentals, but if emissions are concentrated in certain allocations or subject to vague governance processes, the risks can be significant.
