Tokenomics

Breakdown of funds allocations

Summary: Unlike many other memecoins, VINU is not re-issuable. This means that the total supply is fixed, and there will not be inflation.

The total supply of VINU at inception is 1 quadrillion (1,000,000,000,000,000). No more than this amount will ever exist. This means that there will be no worries about inflation pertaining to VINU.

Below, you will find VINU’s plan for distributing its supply of tokens. The purpose of providing this is for the sake of ensuring transparency in our operations.

Updated Distribution Plan

As of 30 Aug 2022, the Core Team has come to an agreement that the following changes will be made immediately to VINU"s Initial Token Split. This is to ensure that we can continue to deliver the best outcome for VINU.

  1. A reduction of 'Staking Rewards' from 100T to 50T VINU [-50T].

  2. A reduction of 'VINO SBP Rewards' from 25T to 10T VINU [-15T].

  3. An increase of 'Development' from 75T to 110T [+35T].

  4. An increase of 'Marketing' from 75T to 105T [+30T].

The current distribution is now as follows:

  • Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) - 565T

    • 100T Monthly Burns

    • 105T Marketing

    • 110T Development

    • 250T DAO Reserves

  • Public Distribution - 185T

    • 100T Presale

    • 25T Airdrops

    • 10T VINO SBP Rewards

    • 50T Staking Rewards

  • Team Distribution - 250T

Detailed information about each category and sub-category may be found in the section#initial-token-split.

Rationale for Updated Distribution Plan

Over the past 9 months, the Development and Marketing wallets have been used to fund Vita Inu’s progress.

With the price of VINU now trending higher, the following assumptions can be made:

  1. 50T VINU is more than sufficient to allocate to staking rewards, and 100T looks like an over-allocation.

  2. The VINO SBP awards 10B VINU daily to voters, which is 3.65T per year. 25T would take 7 years to deplete, whereas 10T takes 3 years to deplete which is a more reasonable timeframe. In addition, as the price of VINU rises the daily reward may need to reduce to stop the APY from getting too high (which would add more years to the calculation).

  3. The 65T boost to VINU’s Development & Marketing treasury will allow the project to continue to thrive in the current environment and deliver on its roadmap prior to its transition into a DAO.
