# Vesting

To ensure the sustainable growth and stability of the XtremeGPT ecosystem, a structured vesting schedule has been implemented. This approach aligns stakeholder interests and fosters long-term commitment to the project.

### Early Adopters Farming Wallet

* **Vesting Schedule:** 1 million tokens allocated for early adopters, fully unlocked at token launch.
* **Purpose:** Reward early supporters and incentivize their participation in staking and farming activities within the ecosystem.
* **Status Update:** The 1 million tokens initially allocated to the farming wallet [**have been burned**](https://basescan.org/tx/0x279aff5a94c4a6be63684dc9cd1d739536d13ba5c8375074a2756b806828062d). This decision reinforces token scarcity and long-term value while simplifying the incentive structure.

### Founders and Team

* **Vesting Schedule:** 6 million tokens, vested over 5 years with monthly releases of 100k tokens.
* **First Vesting:** Initiated with the token launch.
  * The first 200k vested tokens were sold at the initial price of $0.1 USD to two initial liquidity investors (100k each).
* **Purpose:** Align the team’s success with the long-term growth of the ecosystem, ensuring continuous development and innovation.

### Marketing and Community Development

* **Vesting Schedule:** 6 million tokens, vested over 5 years with monthly releases of 100k tokens.
* **First Vesting:** Initiated with the token launch.
  * The first 100k vested tokens were allocated to the smart contract for an Airdrop promo.
  * The second 100k vested tokens were sold at the initial price of $0.1 USD to a third initial liquidity investor, providing the team with funds for marketing and project development.
* **Purpose:** Sustain strategic marketing efforts, foster community engagement, and drive adoption of XTGPT.

### Liquidity Funds

* **Vesting Schedule:** 5 million tokens reserved for large-scale investors, unlocked on a flexible monthly or weekly schedule based on strategic needs.
  * Upon providing a wallet address and amount, the system initiates an automatic vesting process for the agreed number of tokens over the specified period.
  * This functionality may never be activated—it serves as a contingency to support the project’s development when necessary.
* **Purpose:** Support liquidity requirements during pivotal growth phases and ensure token stability.

### Voters Incentive

* **Vesting Schedule:** 21.5 million tokens, vested over 20 years, released weekly to incentivize voter participation.
  * **Year 1–2:** 71.8k tokens/week (7.46M total).
  * **Year 3–4:** 47.8k tokens/week (4.97M total).
  * **Year 5–6:** 23.9k tokens/week (2.49M total).
  * **Year 7–20:** 9k tokens/week (6.59M total).
* **Key Notes:**
  * The token value is expected to rise over time, ensuring the allocated amount remains financially impactful despite the decreasing number of tokens.
  * The number of tokens invested can be adjusted manually in the Aerodrome system to maintain balance between feasibility and reward attractiveness.
  * The project is not yet part of the Aerodrome ecosystem; therefore, vested tokens for incentives **are being burned** until integration into the system is achieved.
* **Purpose:** Incentivize governance participation and liquidity provisioning, ensuring long-term engagement from the community.

### Tax Pool

* **The XTGPT Tax Pool is allocated 10 million tokens**, distributed through two mechanisms:
* Tax Mechanics:

  1. **Daily Claims (1% Trading Volume):**\
     The contract allows the team to claim 1% of the daily trading volume (in USD) as tokens. The claim amount depends on the current token price and ensures sustainable rewards based on market activity.
  2. **Monthly Vesting with Halving:**\
     Starting two years after launch, tokens are released monthly. The release begins at **250,000 tokens/month** and is halved every year, ensuring a gradual decrease in token distribution.

  **Capped at 10 Million Tokens:**\
  All claims (daily + monthly) share the same total cap of **10 million tokens**, ensuring the system remains balanced and sustainable.
* **Purpose:** Maintain operational sustainability and ensure the ecosystem’s growth trajectory through structured funding.
