Unlock Schedule
Plume (PLUME) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
As of November 11, 2026, 6.88 billion of the 10 billion PLUME (68.82%) have been released. The remaining 3.12 billion PLUME, all estimated, are worth about $41.16 million at today's price (45.75% of the market cap). Of these, 2.6 billion PLUME release over the next 12 months, mostly from Community and Ecosystem and Early Backers. Today's release is an estimated 7.32 million PLUME from Community and Ecosystem, Core Contributors, Early Backers and Plume Foundation. PLUME is fully unlocked on January 21, 2028; after that date the schedule has no further dated releases.
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
PLUME has a maximum supply of 10 billion tokens. At its token launch, 20% of that supply was initially circulating. The planned allocation assigns 59% to the community, ecosystem, and foundation; 21% to early backers; and 20% to core contributors. The largest category supports activities such as grants, community programs, validator rewards, and network development. Tokens assigned to different groups follow release schedules, so an allocation describes their planned purpose rather than the amount immediately available for use. (docs.plume.org)
What PLUME does
PLUME is the gas token for transactions on Plume. A user may need it to transfer an asset, interact with a vault, or call another smart contract on the network. Holders can also delegate PLUME through the network’s staking application and receive staking rewards under that program’s rules. Plume describes governance participation and ecosystem incentives as further roles for the token. The terms of a particular application or reward program depend on that program’s design. (docs.plume.org)

Values at $0.013 per PLUME (November 11, 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
Plume reports a fixed supply of 10 billion tokens, divided among community, ecosystem and foundation uses, early backers, and core contributors. The chart can show an estimated launch allocation and estimated vesting through January 2028; Plume separately confirmed that backer and team tokens remained locked until January 2026. Named Season 2 and Nest Points budgets, staking rewards, and actual recipient payments have no sufficiently quantified payment schedule here, so they are listed without invented monthly releases. Issuance, unlocking and distribution are separate views of the tokens and should not be added together.
- Season 2 Plume Points, Royco and Merkl Incentives: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Plume Nest Points Season 1: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Validator and Delegator Staking Rewards: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
