PayAI (PAYAI) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
The unlock chart above provides a clear visual overview of the PayAI (PAYAI) 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 PAYAI 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
PayAI’s token has a fixed maximum supply of 1,000,000,000 PAYAI. At launch, 100% of tokens are liquid. The team states it will purchase 20% of the supply into a Treasury at launch. Treasury funds are earmarked for operations, marketing, and future emissions (such as community rewards and partnerships). Half of the Treasury is placed into liquidity to generate fees and can be moved or repurposed for operations; the other half vests linearly over one year via a public vesting contract. (docs.payai.network)
In terms of intended utility, the token is described as a functional asset within the PayAI ecosystem. The docs explain that PAYAI may be used to reduce fees, increase the visibility of services or offers on the marketplace, and participate in future governance or arbitration mechanisms. The project’s facilitator pricing page also references plans for higher‑throughput tiers priced in PAYAI equivalents for merchants, hinting at a role in service access and throughput limits. The team emphasizes that PAYAI does not represent ownership, equity, dividends, or claims on profits; it is meant for platform utility. (docs.payai.network)
Assumptions
- Genesis/TGE date set to 2025-02-25.
Pump.fun coin page shows the token was created “8mo ago” when accessed on 2025-10-25; converted to an approximate calendar date.
- Treasury vesting modeled as non-circulating until unlocked.
Docs link to a Streamflow vesting contract for the Treasury half; although 100% is described as liquid on launch, the vested portion is locked in Streamflow and unlocks linearly over 12 months.
- No ongoing inflation, PoS/PoW, liquidity mining, or protocol reward emissions modeled.
PAYAI is a fixed-supply SPL token (1,000,000,000 max). Docs mention potential future emissions from Treasury but provide no concrete amounts/schedules; excluded per instruction to only include real, non-zero emissions.
