How to Read Tokenomics Like a Pro
Tokenomics defines value capture and long-term sustainability. This guide teaches you how to decode supply schedules, distributions, and incentives.
Supply & Emissions
- Circulating vs total vs max: Know what’s tradable today and what unlocks later.
- Inflation/deflation: Emissions, burns, buybacks, fees, and staking rewards.
Distribution & Vesting
- Team/investor allocations, cliffs, unlock calendars.
- Community, ecosystem, and liquidity allocations.
Utility & Value Accrual
- Governance, staking, access, collateral, fee sharing.
- Real sinks: burns, upgrades, or required spend.
Liquidity Design
- Depth across DEX/CEX, lock status, market making.
- Bridged liquidity and cross-chain fragmentation risks.
Quick Evaluation Flow
- Map unlocks for the next 3–12 months.
- Stress-test demand vs emissions.
- Check treasury transparency and runway.
