HOTCROSS Tokenomics
There is a maximum supply of 500 million HOTCROSS tokens. In terms of distribution, 26.6% and 26.5% were reserved for protocol incentives and ecosystem growth respectively. 10% were set aside in the reserve, while 10% has been kept for the team. Liquidity providers got 4.4%, while incubators and strategic placements got 12.5%.
These tokens are on a strict release schedule though. For example, the 10% reserved for the team was gradually unlocked over a period of two years. This was to prevent massive sell-offs that would have been bad for the ecosystem and the HOTCROSS price.
