Today, August 24th, 2022, the team behind the Nodle Protocol and the Nodle Network development announced the locking of the vast majority of its treasury of NODL tokens. The decision aims to further strengthen the ecosystem by reducing the token’s circulating supply while demonstrating the long-term commitment to the protocol.
The tokens will automatically unlock every month over five years in an automatic manner, tracked and implemented by the Nodle Parachain. Furthermore, a portion of these tokens will be allocated to creating a DAO treasury to help decentralize the Network’s governance.
Effective immediately, a little over 2.7B tokens are taken out of circulation and will vest according to the following terms:
- The future DAO tokens (966,502,095 NODL) will vest linearly as of 01/01/2023 over five years. These tokens will be used by the upcoming Nodle DAO and are not usable by the team.
- 1,169,647,883 NODL are reserved for discretionary spending of the team, such as compensation and retainer structures. They will start vesting linearly on 01/01/2023 over five years.
- 400,000,000 NODL are reserved for creating learning programs and initiatives with exchange partners, vesting linearly on 01/01/2023 over two years.
- 200,000,000 NODL are reserved for an ecosystem support budget, vesting linearly on 01/01/2023 over three years.
