Fractal Tokenomics
Last updated
Last updated
At Fractal, we have meticulously designed a comprehensive tokenomics model that establishes the long-term sustainability of our project while delivering maximum value to our community and investors. Our approach ensures that every participant in the ecosystem—ranging from miners to developers—has a positive vested interest in the growth and success of the network.
TL;DR: 80% of all tokens are allocated to the community, with just 20% for the team and contributors (with lock up periods) to ensure ongoing support and stability.
Total supply: 210 million
Our token distribution strategy is carefully designed to promote network security, incentivize growth, and reward key contributors across the ecosystem. The allocation is as follows:
Proof of Work Mining (50%)
Half of the total token supply is allocated to Proof of Work (PoW) mining, aligning Fractal closely with Bitcoin’s security model. This is critical for maintaining network security and ensuring reliable block production.
Please see the chart below for the estimated Proof-of-Work Mining Schedule:
Ecosystem Treasury (15%)
15% of the tokens are reserved for the Ecosystem Treasury, dedicated to investing in the Fractal ecosystem. This treasury supports and funds initiatives that improve the ecosystem, and provides for ongoing core improvements to Fractal. A maximum of 10% of the total pool may be used each year, over a period of 10 years.
Community Grants (10%)
10% of the tokens are allocated to community grants, which will be used to establish partnerships and liquidity programs. These initiatives are aimed at boosting network engagement over time, and will be community-directed. A maximum of 10% of the total pool may be used each year, over a period of 10 years.
Pre-sale (5%)
Only 5% of the tokens are allocated for the pre-sale, targeting early investors. These funds are crucial for covering initial development and operational costs, as well as conducting security audits to ensure the robustness of the network. All tokens are locked up for a period of seven (7) months, and will be linearly released until the twelve (12)-month mark. This ensures that pre-sale participants are invested in the long-term growth of the ecosystem, while balancing out the immediate effects of proof-of-work (PoW) block production.
Advisor (5%)
Another 5% of the tokens are currently reserved for present and future advisors who will provide strategic advice and support for the ongoing development of the Fractal network. A maximum of 20% of the total pool may be used each year, over a period of 5 years.
Core Contributors (15%)
The remaining 15% of tokens are allocated to core contributors who build and maintain Fractal's core software. All tokens are locked up for a period of seven (7) months, and will be linearly released until the twelve (12)-month mark. As PoW networks do not inherently provide direct funding for development, this allocation ensures a dedicated pool of resources for ongoing improvements, attracting top talent and supporting the network's stability and growth. By funding development in this way, Fractal can continue to innovate and adapt, providing a secure, efficient platform that benefits the entire community.
With our well-balanced tokenomics design, Fractal lays the foundation for sustainability and security of the network, while providing meaningful incentives for all participants.
As we continue to grow, our tokenomics model will evolve to meet the changing needs of the ecosystem, ensuring that Fractal remains a vibrant and thriving network for years to come. We welcome all Fractal users to participate in ongoing governance processes and provide your input and ideas as we build Fractal together.

As previously disclosed, the Fractal Foundation will disburse the funds in Ecosystem Treasury and Community Grants over 10 years, with a maximum of 10% of the total pool allocated per year. As such, the amounts will be time-locked (using OP_CLTV) until they reach the corresponding block heights. Funds cannot be accessed or moved until Fractal Bitcoin's blockchain reaches that specific block. These funds are completely secured by Fractal Bitcoin's network, and any attempt to move them before the specified block will be invalid.
