Peaq (PEAQ) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule

As of November 10, 2026, 2.59 billion PEAQ have been released. The schedule is ongoing, with no final release date. Over the next 12 months it releases 498.67 million PEAQ (all estimated) mostly from Core Contributors — 11.5% of genesis supply and PoS network issuance, including validator rewards and protocol pools, worth about $14.36 million at today's price (19.15% of the market cap). Today's release is an estimated 1.72 million PEAQ from Core Contributors — 11.5% of genesis supply, EoT Labs — 8.5% of genesis supply, Investors: Pre-Seed — 7% of genesis supply, Investors: Seed — 5% of genesis supply and PoS network issuance, including validator rewards and protocol pools.

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 distribution

PEAQ began with 4.2 billion tokens at genesis. The published launch allocation assigns 34% to investors, 21% to the community, 20% to ecosystem and treasury purposes, 11.5% to core contributors, 8.5% to EoT Labs, and 5% to network security. Peaq says the original allocations unlock gradually, block by block, rather than through monthly releases. (peaq.xyz)

New PEAQ is issued to support the network’s incentive system. Peaq’s published economic model starts issuance at 3.5% annually, reduces the rate over time, and sets a 1% floor. The token therefore has an issuance schedule as well as its original allocation. Both are part of understanding how tokens reach participants over the network’s lifetime. (peaq.xyz)

What PEAQ does

On the peaq chain, PEAQ pays transaction fees, often called gas. Validators and delegators also stake it to help secure the network. Peaq’s economic design adds another role: when an operator activates a machine under that model, PEAQ is bonded to the machine’s ID. A renewal adds to the bond. The bond gives the machine what Peaq calls Economic Weight, a measure used in its machine coordination system. (peaq.xyz)

PEAQ also appears on other supported chains through official cross-chain token contracts. This does not mean every machine payment must use PEAQ. Peaq’s design allows some machine services to be priced in dollars and paid in a supported currency on the chain where the service occurs. PEAQ’s central roles remain tied to the network, staking, and machine bonding. (peaq.xyz)

Values at $0.029 per PEAQ (November 10, 2026), today's price, not a forecast. Releases continue after October 2027. Estimated amounts are modeled from the schedule's rules rather than dated by a source; see the Assumptions below. Releases without dates are listed under Allocations.

Assumptions

Peaq created 4.2 billion PEAQ at genesis. Investors, core contributors, EoT Labs and the Core Time Lease have documented lock-ups and per-block vesting, while PoS inflation creates additional tokens. Several community campaigns and foundation reserves have documented budgets but no complete dated record of payments to recipients. The chart can show the known launch amounts, approximate calendar placement of block-based vesting, and estimated growth between reported total-supply observations; undated spending and future issuance remain uncertain.

Community Sale — 6% of genesis supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
Network Security: Security Reserve — approximately 3.4583% of genesis supply: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
Get Real Campaign — 5% of genesis supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
Get Real: Kaito Yapper Leaderboard — 0.55% of genesis supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
Early Adopters Campaign — 2.53% of genesis supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
Community Reserve — approximately 5.47% of genesis supply: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
Ecosystem & Treasury: Reserve — approximately 11.18% of genesis supply: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
Ecosystem & Treasury: Capital Contributions — 0.3% of genesis supply: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
Ecosystem & Treasury: Grants — approximately 1.77% of genesis supply: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
Ecosystem & Treasury: Expansion Reserve — 3% of genesis supply: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
PoS network issuance, including validator rewards and protocol pools: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
