πŸ”’Tokenomics

HOG token is an ERC20 utility token. Initially, it serves as a governance token for the protocol. In addition to that, HOG token holders can stake their tokens to earn rewards and participate in the ecosystem's growth via different token sinks: minting, staking, etc. Symbol: HOG Supply: 100,000,000 Blockchain: L2 TBA

Incentives (12%)

  • Engage and build momentum in the community;

  • Incentivize dApp adoption;

  • Others (TBD)

Investors and Liquidity (16%)

  • Early backers supporting the project's vision;

  • Future investors;

  • Ensure ample liquidity for the token upon launch.

Team (25%)

  • reserved for current and future team members;

  • ongoing research;

  • development;

  • future funding.

DAO (47%)

  • Unlocked but not under team control;

  • Represents shared community governance;

  • Use will be decided by the community.

Vesting Details:

  • The lockup for pre-seed is 4 months cliff lockup since TGE and then 25% portions unlocking every 4 months. As such, it’s just a bit over 1 year (16 months). We believe that cliff unlocks can be a better solution, as communities have been confused with gradual per-block vestings that DeFi projects did throughout the last cycle.

  • The lockup for the company and team will naturally be longer than for investors.

Additional Notes:

  • The distribution percentages are initial estimates. Practical implementation may differ, especially before the DAO launch.

  • The DAO, owning approximately half of the total supply, can decide on modifications or additional allocations post-launch.

  • Our goal is to ensure flexibility and adaptability to cater to unforeseen requirements and strategic changes.

DAO Supply Insights:

  • Immediate issuance of a significant DAO supply, like the 47% in our case, allows for a potential "no-more-mint" restriction on the ERC20 token, adding a layer of trust and security.

  • If the full DAO supply isn't issued upfront, it typically necessitates enabling the DAO multisig to issue more tokens in the future. This can be perceived as less secure.

  • Pre-issuance is likely a common approach among DAOs for these reasons.
