Osmosis (OSMO) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule

As of October 25, 2026, 882.87 million of the 1 billion OSMO (88.29%) 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

OSMO is used for:

Staking: Delegating OSMO to validators secures the chain and earns staking rewards.
Governance: Token holders vote on protocol parameters such as pool incentives, fee‑token whitelists, and software upgrades.
Gas: OSMO is accepted for transaction fees alongside other whitelisted tokens.

Osmosis started with an issuance model known as the “thirdening,” where new token emissions decrease by one‑third each year across daily epochs. The aim is to front‑load incentives for bootstrapping liquidity and then taper issuance as the system matures. Parameters can be adjusted by governance as conditions change. (medium.com)

A notable element of the economic design is superfluid staking. In approved pools, certain LP shares can be “superfluid staked,” allocating a portion of the position’s OSMO exposure to validators while still earning trading fees from the pool. This mechanism ties network security to DEX activity and improves overall capital efficiency. (support.osmosis.zone)

Assumptions

Osmosis assigned its genesis tokens to a fairdrop and strategic reserve and planned daily epoch provisions for staking, liquidity incentives, developer vesting and the community pool. The chart records genesis once and uses the supplied net-supply reference points for later aggregate growth and burns; amounts between points are estimates, and measured annual points for 2022 and 2023 are missing. Developer unlocks and the documented market-making deployment are shown separately as changes in spendability or ownership, not extra token creation. Later recipient amounts, treasury spending, cumulative burns and an independently verified current total remain unresolved.

Genesis Fairdrop: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
Genesis Strategic Reserve: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
Daily Epoch Provisions — Aggregate Net-Supply Series: Emission continues with no published future rate or end date.
PoS Validator and Delegator Inflation Rewards: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
PoS Validator and Delegator Inflation Rewards: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
Protocol Liquidity Mining Incentives: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
Pre-minted Developer Vesting: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
Pre-minted Developer Vesting: The original schedule was changed and the new timing is not yet published.
Epoch Provisions Allocated to the Community Pool: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
OGP Market-Making Initiative: Timing not yet established.
