Star Atlas DAO (POLIS)
Unlock Schedule
Star Atlas DAO (POLIS) 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
A fixed allocation with two distinct token roles
The published POLIS allocation totals 360 million tokens. The economic plan assigned 40% to rewards and emissions, 30% to the team, 22.5% to private token sales, 1.5% to a public presale, 2% to public token sales, and 4% to listings and liquidity pools. These figures describe the token distribution plan, not how many tokens any group holds at a given time. (experience.staratlas.com)
POLIS’s main function is governance. Locked tokens create voting power and can earn POLIS rewards under the locker system. Through the DAO, participants can address matters such as treasury spending, economic policy, and community initiatives. ATLAS has a different job: it is used for payments and rewards in the game economy. The DAO’s decisions can therefore affect how ATLAS held in its treasury supports development and other ecosystem work. (support.staratlas.com)
This two-token design separates everyday game transactions from longer-term decisions. A player buying resources may use ATLAS without taking part in governance. A POLIS holder can focus on proposals even if they spend little time flying ships. Some participants do both, connecting their experience of the game to decisions about its direction.

Assumptions
Star Atlas allocated 360 million POLIS among sales, liquidity, the team and rewards; the published sales and team terms include launch unlocks and roughly two years of vesting. POLIS and ATLAS lockers have documented reward budgets running into 2030, but their monthly amounts in this chart are uniform estimates rather than the published declining daily rewards. Part of the original rewards reserve and the quantity paid through Raydium Fusion lack verified payment schedules. An estimated initial mint is shown separately from releases of already-existing tokens, and the small difference between the maximum allocation and explorer supply cannot be attributed to burns without further evidence.
- Rewards and emission reserve — 40% of maximum supply: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
- Raydium Fusion liquidity-provider POLIS rewards: The sources give the amount but no release dates.
