The SWARM supply is allocated across seven categories, as outlined in the chart and table below.
SWARM Token Distribution
Seed Sale (5%) – These tokens go to the project’s earliest supporters, often called “angel investors” or strategic partners. They provide initial funding, advice, or resources to help get the Swarm Protocol off the ground. This helps ensure the project has the support and momentum it needs in the very beginning.
Public Sale (10%) – These tokens are sold to the general public, allowing everyday users and early adopters to participate in the ecosystem. It helps decentralize ownership and brings community involvement right from the start.
Team (10%) – Tokens set aside for the founding team and core developers who built the protocol. This rewards their hard work and ensures they stay motivated to continue improving and maintaining the project.
Advisors (5%) – Tokens given to external experts who provide strategic guidance, evaluate the project’s progress, and advise on governance decisions. They bring experience and credibility to the protocol.
Treasury & Ecosystem Fund (25%) – A large reserve used for the DAO’s long-term goals, including funding future projects, forming partnerships, and supporting community initiatives. Think of it as the project’s “savings account” for growth and sustainability.
Liquidity Pool (30%) – Tokens allocated to exchanges and market-making activities to ensure that there’s enough supply for trading. This helps prevent large price swings and makes it easy for people to buy and sell SWARM tokens.
Marketing & Growth (15%) – Tokens dedicated to promoting the protocol, running marketing campaigns, incentivizing the community, and driving adoption. This ensures that more people learn about and start using Swarm Protocol.
