The remaining \~92,200,000 S in treasury is reserved for: * Sustainable Usage - Rewarding deel liquidity providers and consistent network participants * Builder Economy - Supporting developers creating applications on Sonic * Strategic Reserve - Funding future targeted airdrop incentives and ecosystem initiatives **No additional tokens will be minted for these incentive programs.** ## Distribution For season 1 of the airdrop, 25% of your allocation is immediately available, while the remaining 75% vests over 270 days as NFT positions that are tradable on the [Airdrop Order Book](https://airdrop.paintswap.io/) by Paintswap. A linear decay mechanism applies to the vested portion, allowing you to claim early at the cost of a penalty that burns a portion of your tokens. This approach prevents sudden surges in circulating supply by burning tokens from users who choose to claim early. It also incentivizes recipients to stay active on-chain while waiting for an optimal time to claim the remainder of their allocation. The chart below illustrates how many tokens will be burned based on when users choose to claim their vested airdrop allocation.

Burn amount of the vested airdrop allocation if claimed early

{% hint style="info" %} The above vesting structure applied to Season 1. Future targeted airdrop incentives may utilize different distribution models based on program objectives. {% endhint %} ### Burn Amount and Examples | Day | Burn Amount | | ------- | ----------- | | 0–30 | 100%–88.9% | | 31–60 | 88.9%–77.8% | | 61–90 | 77.8%–66.7% | | 91–120 | 66.7%–55.6% | | 121–150 | 55.6%–44.4% | | 151–180 | 44.4%–33.4% | | 180–210 | 33.4%–22.3% | | 211–240 | 22.3%–11.2% | | 241–270 | 11.2%–0% | {% tabs %} {% tab title="Example A" %} Andrew earns 1,000 S in the Sonic airdrop. Andrew can claim his 25% liquid allocation immediately and receive 250 S in his wallet. 90 days pass and Andrew returns to the claim portal, deciding he would like the rest of his airdrop. As 90 days have passed by, he can claim 249.75 S tokens (33.3 of the remaining 750 token allocation) but must burn 500.25 S (66.7% of his locked allocation). {% endtab %} {% tab title="Example B" %} Bob earns 10,000 S in the Sonic airdrop. Bob can claim his 25% liquid allocation immediately and receive 2,500 S. Bob is excited to use his S in the ecosystem and decides he would like all of his eligible airdrop allocation after day 30. Bob claims again (the final 75% portion), receiving 1,110 S and burning 6,667.5 S (88.9% of the final portion). {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Data Collection We are working with[ OpenBlock](https://openblock.com/) and [Sentio](https://www.sentio.xyz/) to manage and oversee our points and airdrop designs through data-backed decision-making.
