Rain (RAIN)
Unlock Schedule
Rain (RAIN) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
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, allocation, and governance
Rain’s white paper lists an initial token supply of 1.15 trillion RAIN. The token is divided among categories that support different parts of the project. These include a presale and strategic sale; team members, contributors, and advisers; marketing and development; exchange-related and liquidity needs; ecosystem growth; and reserves. Some allocations follow lockup and vesting schedules, which release tokens over time rather than all at once. (whitepaper.rain.one)
RAIN’s stated governance role is tied to the planned DAO. Once that system is activated, holders are intended to be able to vote on protocol decisions under rules set for the DAO. The foundation’s March 2026 white paper describes those voting rights as a future function, with the timing and scope still to be finalized. The same document identifies RAIN as a governance token and explains that holding it does not give ownership of the foundation or a claim on its profits. (whitepaper.rain.one)
Rain also describes a buyback-and-burn model connected to market activity. Its published fee design sets aside a portion of market-related fees to buy RAIN and remove those purchased tokens from circulation. Another portion is intended to reward contributors such as market creators, liquidity providers, and resolvers. This gives readers two separate ideas to keep in mind: token allocations can be released over time, while burns can reduce the number of tokens in circulation. (rain.one)
Assumptions
Rain started with 1.15 trillion RAIN, split by its whitepaper into liquidity (15%), marketing and development (20%), ecosystem and staking (15%), reserve and treasury (20%), team (10%), contributors and advisors (10%), a strategic sale (9%) and a presale (1%). Each share is released on a stated vesting plan, from nothing at launch for the team and strategic sale up to full availability at launch for the liquidity share. The launch date, the exact payment dates and the presale's monthly amounts are not published, so the chart places everything from an assumed September 2025 launch and the dates are estimates. Still open is an inflation mechanism that can mint 10% of burned tokens, with no amounts known; about 7.59 billion tokens have been burned, mostly a 7.42 billion burn in August 2026.
- Presale (Mercury Miner, Private Sale, Credit Refund): The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Dynamic Inflation (10% of burned tokens re-minted): New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
