Unlock Schedule
Botto (BOTTO) 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
BOTTO began with an allocation of 100 million tokens. Of that initial amount, 30% was set aside for a community airdrop, 30% for the treasury, 20% for liquidity-mining incentives, and 20% for the team. The team allocation vested over two years, ending in October 2023. The original liquidity-mining reward period ended in October 2025. (docs.botto.com)
BOTTO’s central use is participation. Users can stake tokens in Botto’s governance system to receive Voting Points, or VP, which they spend when judging art. Botto also gives people who log in a basic weekly VP allocation, so viewing and voting do not begin with a token purchase. Staking at least 100 BOTTO provides access to additional participation rights and eligibility for certain rewards. (docs.botto.com)
Staked tokens also matter in formal BottoDAO decisions. These votes cover subjects beyond the choice of an image, such as the art engine, exhibitions, incentives, and treasury management. A token balance held only in a wallet does not count toward the DAO’s formal Snapshot voting weight; the governance rules look to tokens staked in the relevant contracts. (docs.botto.com)
Art sales help fund the system. Botto’s rewards documentation describes an auction-revenue split between the DAO treasury and participation programs. Active rewards are tied to voting activity, while separate BOTTO rewards support engagement in the app. These arrangements can change through governance, making the treasury and the DAO important parts of the token’s economic model.

Assumptions
Botto created its documented 100 million BOTTO at launch, assigning 30% each to an airdrop and treasury and 20% each to liquidity rewards and the team. Published dates support the original airdrop opening, team payments, staking-reward period and liquidity-mining period, although the reward curves are estimates rather than verified claims. Treasury sales, later incentives, bonds and contributor budgets contain amounts or rules without enough transaction dates to chart their actual payments. The chart should show dated creation and supported releases separately, without treating returned tokens or overlapping treasury subprograms as newly created supply.
