# Tokenomics
The NOYA token follows a **fixed supply and clearly defined allocation model**, designed to ensure low initial float, long-term alignment, and sustainable incentives. **Total Supply:** 1,000,000,000 NOYA **Initial Circulating Supply at TGE:** approximately 10% Key characteristics: * No team tokens unlocked at TGE * Low initial float to reduce early sell pressure * Long-term vesting for team, foundation, and ecosystem allocations * Buyback and burn funded by revenue across all NOYA products *** #### Token Allocation Overview | Allocation Bucket | % of Supply | Tokens (M) | TGE Unlock | Vesting / Notes | | -------------------------- | ----------- | ---------- | ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Team | 20% | 200 | 0% | 6-month cliff, then linear vesting over 48 months | | Community Emissions | 37% | 370 | 0% | Linear monthly emissions over 60 months | | Airdrop | 5% | 50 | 100%\* | Majority liquid at TGE; larger allocations vested 3–6 months for stability | | Foundation / Treasury | 10% | 100 | 0% | Linear vesting over 48 months | | Ecosystem & Partnerships | 15% | 150 | 0% | Linear vesting over 48 months | | Launch-Raise (Public Sale) | 10% | 100 | 20% | Linear vesting over 6 months | | Market Maker Reserve | 3% | 30 | 100% (lent) | 12-month lending period, clawback-enabled | \* Airdrop recipients with large allocations may be subject to short-term vesting to reduce volatility. #### Airdrop Holder Alignment Philosophy Many protocols automatically normalize or penalize large airdrop holders through forced vesting, hard cliffs, or redistribution mechanisms that remove agency from recipients. NOYA deliberately chose a different approach. Rather than enforcing mandatory normalization, **NOYA gives large airdrop holders a choice**: * They may follow a standard vesting path and receive their full allocation over time. * Or they may opt for early liquidity by paying a penalty. Penalties paid by holders who choose early liquidity are redirected toward **staking incentives**, directly benefiting long-term aligned participants. This structure preserves fairness, respects holder agency, and ensures that short-term decisions strengthen the ecosystem for those who commit early and stake. *** #### Supply Discipline and Value Accrual NOYA’s tokenomics are designed to align **protocol usage with token value**. Revenue generated across all NOYA products, including intelligence, execution, vaults, and prediction markets, may be used to: * Buy back NOYA tokens from the open market * Permanently remove repurchased tokens from circulation This creates a feedback loop between platform adoption and token scarcity, while maintaining transparent and predictable supply dynamics.
