Unlock Schedule
Snek (SNEK) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
As of October 25, 2026, 76.72 billion of the 76.72 billion SNEK (100.00%) have been released. No further releases are scheduled; the schedule was fully unlocked in May 2023.
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
Snek’s stated maximum supply is 76,715,880,000 SNEK. Its original distribution divided that amount into five parts: 50% for presale participants, 40% for initial decentralized-exchange liquidity, 5% for utility and project development, 3% for a reserve, and 2% for community airdrops. The utility portion was intended for activities such as partnerships and new projects; the reserve included possible exchange and expansion needs. (gate.com)
That breakdown describes the launch allocation, not five permanent kinds of token. Tokens first placed in a liquidity pool can later change hands through swaps, while airdropped tokens enter community wallets. What matters for understanding the economic model is how SNEK began circulating and what the project set aside for future activity. (gate.com)
Snek also uses token burns as part of its supply approach. In a burn, tokens are sent to an address from which they cannot be recovered, reducing the amount available for ordinary use. Snek-related initiatives describe buy-and-burn activity linked to parts of the wider ecosystem. A burn changes the available supply; it does not change SNEK’s role as a transferable Cardano asset.

The token’s everyday uses are straightforward: it can be held, sent, exchanged, and used where a service chooses to accept it. The brand’s related products have their own functions. Owning SNEK by itself does not automatically give a holder access to every Snek-branded service, since those products operate separately. (assets-cms.kraken.com)
Assumptions
SNEK's fixed supply was minted at creation in April 2023; its original budgets assign half to presale buyers, 40% to initial liquidity and the rest to airdrops, utility and reserves. The chart can show the creation and approximate launch-period distributions, but the sources do not date every treasury payment or recipient transfer. Snek also announced finite farming, staking and exchange reward pools using existing tokens; several have unresolved payout amounts, dates or funding sources and are not extra issuance. Tokens sent to its burn wallet explain why a market-data supply figure can fall below the fixed minted quantity without implying a continuing mint-and-burn emission schedule.
