Unlock Schedule
Holo (HOT) 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
HOT and the planned hosting currency
HOT began as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum. Holo’s original distribution plan assigned 75% to the community sale and reserved 25% for the organization and team. The token represented a future claim connected to hosting services. The original design proposed redeeming one HOT for one unit of HoloFuel once the required system and redemption process were in place. (files.holo.host)
HoloFuel is designed as a mutual-credit accounting system. Under that model, hosting activity would create credits and obligations within the network, while hosts would be able to set rates for the resources they provide. The long-term design includes direct payments between customers and hosts, including small payments for measured use. This is different from simply using HOT as a payment token for every app interaction. (holo.host)
HoloFuel has not launched as the network-wide payment system. Holo currently scopes hosting for each deployment and settles it in national currencies such as dollars or euros. Direct customer-to-host micropayments are part of the intended later system. A 2026 technical test used mock HOT on Ethereum’s Sepolia test network to examine a path through a bridge and into HoloFuel accounting; it did not convert holders’ real tokens. (holo.host)
Assumptions
Holo allocated 75% of HOT to its 2018 community sale and 25% to the organization and team. The chart estimates how the sale's minted tokens accumulated during March and April 2018 and places the team's issuance in 2018 without claiming a known mint day. Sale tokens were initially non-transferable, but the exact day they became transferable is unresolved and their unlock is not added to minted supply. No sourced team vesting or later HOT emission schedule is included.
