# Token Distribution

**Starting Supply:** 8,040,000 tQUEST (Public Fair Launch + Initial Liquidity).\
\
The tokenomics of TokenQuest represent a thoughtful balance between encouraging active participation and maintaining long-term value. This approach ensures that both the tQUEST token and the tGOLD remain valuable, useful, and integral to the evolving digital economy.

**Burn Mechanisms:** Some portion of the platform fees across the ecosystem are used for buyback and burns from the market pairs, reversing token dilution and enhancing token value.\
\
**Rewards and Incentives:** The slow distribution of tokens through participation creates a controlled inflationary effect, encouraging active participation consistently through sustained growth.\
\
**Alignment for Growth Policies:** As the platform evolves and expands, the value and utility of tokens are expected to increase, aligning the interests of users, developers, and holders.<br>

### Token Emission Schedule

The release schedule is crafted to align with TokenQuest's growth milestones, ensuring that as the ecosystem matures, more tokens are made available to support its operations, reward its participants, and incentivize new users to join. It is designed to prevent market flooding, protect against inflation, and encourage long-term holding and participation within the TokenQuest community.&#x20;

**This schedule also outlines the rate at which tokens are allocated and "circulated" over 28 months.**

**The Approach:** 4% of the tokens at TGE (3.68% of total supply), and the rest incrementally over 28 months, except marketing tokens, which will be unlocked incrementally over 12 months.\
\
**Max Supply:** 100,000,000 tQUEST

28% is allocated to Ecosystem Rewards, such as quests, tasks, and airdrop campaigns.\
