# Distribution & Vesting

A fair and transparent token distribution is critical for the long-term success and decentralization of any project. The total supply of 1,000,000,000 $VEIL is allocated across several key categories to ensure a balanced ecosystem that rewards early supporters, funds ongoing development, and incentivizes community participation.

#### **Token Allocation**

* **Angels Investors (10%):** 50,000 USD secured from angel investors to fuel early-stage growth and development.
* **Ecosystem & Staking Rewards (10%):** Reserved for funding staking rewards, community grants, and future ecosystem initiatives to encourage growth and participation.
* **Protocol Liquidity (75%):** Used to provide initial liquidity on Uniswap to ensure a stable and healthy trading market from day one.
* **Team & Advisors (5%):** Allocated to the core team and strategic advisors who are building and guiding the project.

#### **Vesting Schedules**

To align the long-term interests of the team with the community, all tokens allocated to the Team & Advisors are subject to a strict vesting schedule. This ensures that the team is committed to the project's success over many years.

* **Team & Advisor Allocation Vesting:**
  * **Cliff:** 2-month cliff (no tokens are unlocked for the first 2 months after the Token Generation Event).
  * **Vesting Period:** 12-month linear vesting (tokens unlock on a monthly basis over the 1 years following the cliff).

This vesting schedule is designed to prevent market instability and demonstrate our long-term commitment to building DarkVeil.

This concludes the Tokenomics section. You can now explore our future plans in the **Community & Ecosystem** section.
