Geodnet (GEOD) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
The unlock chart above provides a clear visual overview of the Geodnet (GEOD) token release schedule, showing when and how tokens enter circulation across investor, team, treasury, and community allocations. Understanding these tokenomics dynamics is critical for evaluating potential supply pressure, inflation impact, and market liquidity over time — key factors that can influence GEOD price performance.
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
Supply, emissions, and buyback‑and‑burn
GEOD has a fixed maximum supply of 1 billion tokens. New tokens are emitted to station operators and other stakeholders according to a published schedule with annual halvings, while allocations for the team, investors, and the ecosystem unlock over multiple years. (geodnet.com)
A defining feature is the revenue link: 80% of Geodnet’s data revenue is used to buy back GEOD on the open market and then burn the tokens, permanently removing them from supply. The remaining 20% goes to the Foundation treasury to fund operations and growth. This policy makes token supply respond to real network usage and has been tracked publicly by analytics providers.

What GEOD is used for
- Network incentives: Mining rewards and SuperHex staking align coverage with real demand.
- Payment: Customers can pay for RTK data, APIs, and services; while many enterprise buyers use fiat rails, the revenue still drives on‑chain buybacks and burns. (support.geodnet.com)
- Governance: Holders can participate in protocol decisions through a governance platform that uses “veNFT” voting power tied to Location NFTs, staked tokens, and time‑locked positions. (vote.geodnet.com)
Assumptions
- Mining allocation modeled as a geometric halving schedule by year (Jul 1–Jun 30) summing exactly to 350M GEOD.
Per-station base rewards halve annually; network-wide issuance is activity-dependent and not published precisely. Modeled year-by-year totals to reflect intended decay and close the allocation.
- Investor vesting linear from 2024-12-28 to 2026-12-28.
Start date aligns with project/aggregator unlock calendars; duration inferred (24 months) to fully release 250M by end-2026.
- Team vesting duration set to 48 months (2025-06-28 to 2029-06-28).
Start date referenced by aggregator; duration not specified publicly, so a standard 4-year team vest is assumed.
- Ecosystem includes event-based 4M migration incentives (Sep–Oct 2025).
Official program announced; assumed full 4M utilization split across program start/end as cliffs; remainder vested linearly.
- Vendor & Marketing includes 10% cliff at start then 36-month linear.
Docs state cliff followed by linear but omit exact parameters; used conservative 10% initial unlock and 36-month term.
- Public Sale linear over 12 months starting 2025-12-28.
Start date from aggregator; 12-month duration assumed to complete 20M distribution in one year.
- Genesis date set to 2022-07-01.
Matches the documented start of mining base reward period (July 2022).
- Buyback-and-burn mechanism does not add supply and is therefore excluded from release allocations.
Foundation uses 80% of data revenue to repurchase and burn tokens; this reduces circulating supply rather than releasing it.
