Aleph.im (ALEPH) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
The chart shows gross modeled releases of every allocation: vesting unlocks, new issuance and reserve distributions, each allocation counted once. These have different meanings; a scheduled release is not evidence that tokens entered circulation or were sold. Review the coverage, sources and assumptions below.
Each color segment in the chart corresponds to a specific allocation group described in the Allocations section below. Underlying assumptions and data models used to reconstruct this schedule are explained in detail under Assumptions, while broader utility insights and token use cases are covered in Tokenomics & Utility.
Tokenomics & Utility
How ALEPH Fits Into the Network
ALEPH is available on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token and has versions on other supported chains, including Solana, Base, Avalanche, and BNB Chain. The project has described a maximum supply of 500 million ALEPH. That maximum is different from the number of tokens available for use at any given time. (aleph.cloud)
The token has several roles. Customers can use ALEPH to add credits for cloud services. Node operators earn it for contributing to the network, and holders can stake it in support of Core Channel Nodes. Staking through the project’s dashboard is designed to be non-custodial: the tokens stay in the holder’s wallet. Network rewards give operators and stakers an incentive to support dependable service. (aleph.cloud)
Credits and Node Rewards
Aleph Cloud moved to a credit-based payment system in March 2026. Users add credits with ALEPH, USDC, or fiat currency, then spend those credits as they use cloud resources. The older pay-as-you-go token streams and holder-tier payment method were deprecated, though existing workloads under those methods were given transition arrangements. A developer therefore does not need to maintain a set ALEPH balance simply to start using the newer credit system. (aleph.cloud)
The project has also described a shift toward rewards tied more closely to customer use of the network. Its revenue-share framework pairs payments from workloads with temporary incentives for operators during the transition. The aim is to connect compensation to services delivered, as well as to the work of keeping nodes available. (aleph.cloud)
Assumptions
ALEPH V2 was created with 500 million tokens, and the 2022 plan assigns that supply to incentives, business development, company, marketing, innovation and NULS Foundation pools. Earlier plans give monthly unlock rules for the company, marketing and innovation pools, but the 2022 revision leaves their later timing unresolved; node, staking, liquidity and grant payments also lack a complete dated payout record. The chart can show the V2 creation and the supported pre-revision monthly unlock entitlements, not treat those entitlements as verified payments into circulation. Undated budgets and reward programs remain listed separately rather than being filled with invented monthly releases.
- Incentives pool — POCM, liquidity and network-node rewards: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Incentives pool — POCM, liquidity and network-node rewards: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Incentives pool — POCM, liquidity and network-node rewards: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
- Raydium Fusion Pool ALEPH incentives: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Business Development pool: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
- Company pool: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Company pool: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
- Marketing pool: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Marketing pool: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
- Innovation pool: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
- NULS Foundation pool: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
