SIRE (SIRE) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
The unlock chart above provides a clear visual overview of the SIRE (SIRE) 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 SIRE 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
What the token does
SIRE is designed for “function first” utility across the stack:
- Access: holding or staking unlocks αLink and its analytics. (docs.sire.bot)
- Reduced fees: staking lowers αVault performance and withdrawal fees through tiered levels. (docs.sire.bot)
- Staking rewards: a share of protocol fees is routed to a staking pool for participants. (docs.sire.bot)
- Buybacks: a portion of fees funds ongoing on‑chain SIRE buybacks. (docs.sire.bot)
How fees flow
The protocol outlines a simple fee engine. Base performance fees start at 20% (scaling down to 10% with higher staking tiers). Withdrawal fees start at 2% (scaling down to 1%), and there is a 2% annual management fee split between the treasury and token burns. Fees are distributed automatically on‑chain along these lines: 50% to the staking pool, 30% to the DAO treasury, 10% to dTAO purchases (for infrastructure support), and 10% to SIRE buybacks. (docs.sire.bot)
Staking tiers published by the project show fee reductions at set thresholds, from 1,000 SIRE through 100,000 SIRE, reaching the lowest performance and withdrawal fee levels at the top tier. (docs.sire.bot)
Distribution approach
The project frames its distribution as community‑first: 85.48% of supply entered circulation on day one; 14.52% was acquired by core contributors on the open market and locked behind a 24‑month vest. It also states there is no preminted “war chest”; the treasury grows from protocol fees and funds R&D, partnerships, and ecosystem expansion. Funds are managed through a multisig. (docs.sire.bot)
Assumptions
- Genesis/TGE modeled on 2025-08-28. Official docs do not state an explicit calendar date; external trackers indicate August 2025 launch, with pair creation around mid‑September. Using 2025-08-28 (Coinboom/RootData) aligns with observed on-chain activity windows; monthly granularity limits date-sensitivity. 
- Core contributors vest has no cliff and vests linearly over 24 months. Docs explicitly state a linear twenty-four-month vest; start aligned to TGE for modeling due to lack of a separate lock start timestamp. 
- No ongoing issuance (no PoW/PoS inflation) and staking rewards do not mint SIRE. Docs show fixed max/total supply and fee-funded rewards (distributed in USDC) plus buybacks/burns; these mechanisms recycle or reduce supply rather than minting new tokens. 
- Buybacks and burns are excluded from emission allocations. They do not increase circulating supply; some flows reduce supply via burns and others add liquidity, but none mint new SIRE.
