Supply and tokenomics
Creators choose the percentage of the launch supply assigned to public participation, future liquidity, and the team. The allocation plan should account for the entire intended supply.
Current curve buckets
| Bucket | Purpose | Contract rule |
|---|---|---|
| Curve | Inventory available for direct purchases | Must be greater than zero |
| Pool | Token reserve intended for future liquidity | Must be greater than zero |
| Team | Tokens released under team vesting | May be zero |
The three percentages must sum to 100%, represented as 10,000 basis points.
For a 1,000,000-token launch with 40% sale, 30% pool, and 30% team:
| Allocation | Basis points | Token amount |
|---|---|---|
| Curve sale | 4,000 | 400,000 |
| Pool reserve | 3,000 | 300,000 |
| Team vesting | 3,000 | 300,000 |
| Total | 10,000 | 1,000,000 |
Curve and team amounts round down to whole base units. The pool bucket receives the remainder, preserving the deposited total. A nonzero percentage that rounds to zero can invalidate the launch.
Deposited supply versus issued supply
The factory deposits the owner's entire balance of this token. Its recorded total_supply is that deposit. It cannot query the total amount issued across the network and cannot enforce that future minting is disabled.
If the public supply claim is 1,000,000 tokens, the issuance and distribution records need to support it. Moving only 700,000 into the vault does not prove the remaining 300,000 does not exist.
On Stellar this also means issuer controls sit outside the vault. On Base, review the ERC-20's mint and admin roles the same way.
Price and valuation
Explain whether the published initial price is a curve marginal price, auction reference price, or fixed presale price. Multiplying a supply figure by that price is a valuation illustration. It does not describe available exit liquidity or guarantee the same price for the full supply.
For the current curve, virtual base reserves must exceed the sale bucket. The graduation target must be reachable by selling the available curve inventory under the configured formula.
Additional allocations
Treasury, ecosystem, advisor, marketing, or community allocations can be described in a project plan. The current curve has only three enforced buckets and one team recipient. Do not label additional profile categories as independently locked unless the corresponding custody and vesting mechanism actually exists.
Auction and presale supply accounting, including unsold tokens and participant vesting, follows the live Base sale terms. On Stellar those formats are part of the expansion.
