Unlock Schedule
ImmutableX (IMX) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
As of October 16, 2026, 1.87 billion of the 2 billion IMX (93.33%) have been released. The schedule is ongoing, with no final release date.
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
Supply and allocation
IMX has a planned total supply of two billion tokens. The token plan assigns 51.72% to ecosystem development, including rewards and developer grants; 25% to project development; 13.86% to private-sale participants; 5.42% to the public sale; and 4% to a foundation reserve. These categories describe the original distribution plan, rather than how many tokens any group holds at a given time. (assets.website-files.com)
The planned release schedule spread many allocations over time. This was meant to provide tokens for building the platform and encouraging its use over several years. It also gave the foundation resources to support games and other applications. (assets.website-files.com)
What IMX does
IMX serves as the native gas token on Immutable Chain. Gas is the payment for processing an action, such as moving a token or using a smart contract. The token foundation also describes a fee model in which 20% of a protocol fee is paid in IMX and directed toward rewards for active participants. Its staking program pairs an IMX stake with qualifying NFT activity during a reward cycle. (docs.immutable.com)
The project describes governance as another token use: holders can take part in votes on proposals about the ecosystem. IMX therefore connects several parts of the platform, from paying for on-chain work to supporting participation in games and marketplaces. (imx.community)
Assumptions
IMX has a 2 billion-token cap, with published unlocks for ecosystem development, project development, the two sales and the foundation reserve. The chart can show those dated unlocks, but its smooth monthly portions are estimates of releases the issuer describes as occurring every 28 days. An amended 125 million-token project lock and part of the public-sale budget lack confirmed release dates. Developer grants, trading and liquidity incentives, and staking rewards are real programs, but their spending is conditional or variable and must not be added to the vesting chart as new tokens.
- Project Development — 25% of maximum supply: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
- Public Sale — 5.42% of maximum supply: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Spending from Ecosystem Development — 51.72% parent budget: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
- Developer Incentives Program — 500 million IMX, a subset of ecosystem spending: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- GameStop milestone grant — 56,209,850 IMX, within developer grants: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- GameStop milestone grant — 56,209,850 IMX, within developer grants: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Trading and Daily Rewards — ecosystem-spending subset: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
- Immutable zkEVM Liquidity Rewards — ecosystem-spending subset: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Promotional Staking Rewards — ecosystem-spending subset: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
- Fee-Funded Staking Rewards — redistribution, not new token issuance: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
- Foundation Reserve Spending — subset of the 80 million IMX reserve: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
