4.2 Token Distribution: A Community-Driven Foundation
$SWEAT’s tokenomics are rooted in a simple yet powerful idea: the value you create through your movement belongs to you. That’s why, from the very beginning, we designed $SWEAT’s initial distribution to prioritize you—the community, ensuring that the majority of tokens are in the hands of those who power the Movement Economy. Our genesis allocation strikes a careful balance between empowering users, rewarding contributors, supporting growth, and ensuring long-term sustainability, all while fostering a decentralized ecosystem where your voice matters.
Here’s how the initial supply breaks down:
Lockdrop – 25.0% The single largest community allocation went straight to you, the early steppers. The Lockdrop rewarded users for minting sweatcoins in the years leading to TGE, laying the groundwork for a truly community-powered economy.
Foundation Treasury – 27.71% Managed by the Sweat Foundation, this reserve fuels future development, global expansion, strategic partnerships, and initiatives like buyback & burn programs (see Section 4.4). It’s the engine room of innovation.
SweatCo Ltd – 22.0% Allocated to the company that built our Movement Validator, Sweatcoin.
Team & Advisors – 10.92% Set aside for the builders and visionaries who brought the project to life. These tokens are locked and vested over multiple years, ensuring long-term alignment with the community.
Ecosystem – 7.02% Designed to support app integrations, rewards, and ecosystem partnerships that amplify the utility of $SWEAT.
Private Round – 3.33% Provided to early backers who believed in the mission and helped bootstrap the ecosystem’s early growth.
Seed Round – 2.68% Allocated to initial investors supporting the foundational build phase.
Public Sale – 1.33% Breaking the DAOMaker record at the time, $1M of $SWEAT sold out within 15 minutes of public sale.
