Somnia (SOMI) 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
What SOMI does
SOMI has a stated fixed starting supply of one billion tokens. It has three main roles. Users pay SOMI as gas when they make transactions or use smart contracts. Validators stake SOMI to participate in securing the chain, while other holders can delegate tokens to a validator. The project also plans a role for SOMI in governance, although its documentation says the details of that role remain to be determined. (docs.somnia.network)
A validator must stake 5 million SOMI to provide a validating node. Somnia’s fee model sends half of gas fees to validators and burns the other half. Burning removes those tokens from supply. Validator rewards can also come from tokens set aside for that purpose, rather than from an uncapped stream of newly created tokens. Delegators may receive a share of a validator’s rewards under that validator’s chosen terms. (docs.somnia.network)
Distribution and unlocks
The published allocation sets aside 27.925% for community purposes and 27.345% for ecosystem development. Investors receive 15.15%, launch partners 15%, the team 11%, and advisers 3.58%. These allocations describe how the fixed supply is assigned; tokens become available over time under unlock schedules. (docs.somnia.network)
In September 2026, Somnia announced that its team, investors, launch partners, and advisers had extended their initial lockups by nine months. Their first scheduled unlock moved from September 2, 2026, to June 2, 2027. The community and ecosystem schedules were unchanged, and the total allocation remained one billion SOMI. This later announcement updates the earlier schedule shown in some token documents. (blog.somnia.network)
Assumptions
Somnia says all one billion SOMI were pre-minted; its published chart releases community and ecosystem tokens at launch and over later months. Team, partner, investor and advisor unlocks were postponed by nine months, with their first unlock now set for June 2, 2027. The chart can show the documented launch releases and modeled vesting, but several community payments, grants and validator rewards lack verified dates or amounts. Transaction fees fund additional validator payments and burns rather than creating new SOMI.
- Ecosystem and foundation — 27.345% of maximum supply: Releases depend on future governance or treasury decisions.
- Community — 27.925% of maximum supply: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Community — 27.925% of maximum supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Validator rewards reserved from existing supply — 10% of maximum supply: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
- Ongoing community, developer and creator incentives — 8% of maximum supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Initial community airdrop — approximately 5% of maximum supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Questers and testnet users — approximately 4.33% of maximum supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Contributors and creators — approximately 0.38% of maximum supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Somnia Liquidity Points, season one — 0.1% of maximum supply: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Mainnet Gaming Party prizes: Releases depend on recipients claiming tokens or on grants being awarded.
- Validator and delegator distributions from transaction fees: New issuance depends on network activity, such as staking, so it cannot be dated in advance.
