    Venus (XVS) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule

    The unlock chart above provides a clear visual overview of the Venus (XVS) 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 XVS 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

    XVS is a BEP‑20 governance token with a maximum supply of 30 million. At launch, the project emphasized fair distribution without founder/team pre‑mines, with tokens earned through Binance Launchpool and liquidity mining on the protocol. In governance materials and exchange documentation, this “community‑first” approach is highlighted as the foundation of Venus’s control structure. (academy.binance.com)

    Beyond voting, XVS has several roles in the protocol’s economic design:

    • Governance power: voting on VIPs, listings, parameters, and upgrades; in V4, thresholds and timelocks vary by proposal type (normal, fast‑track, critical). (community.venus.io)
    • Staking and rewards: users can stake XVS in the XVS Vault; protocol revenue is automatically split between the treasury, buybacks to fund vault rewards, the Venus Prime program, the risk fund, and BNB burns according to models set in the docs. Over time, governance has adjusted emissions down and shifted more rewards to revenue‑funded programs. (docs-v4.venus.io)
    • Cross‑chain utility: the XVS bridge (LayerZero‑based) enables moving governance voting power and liquidity across supported networks for a multichain footprint. (docs-v4.venus.io)

    XVS may also be listed as a collateral asset in certain Venus markets, allowing holders to borrow other assets against their XVS within conservative limits set by governance and the risk framework. (docs-v4.venus.io)

    Assumptions

    • Total XVS supply is fixed at 30,000,000.

      On-chain token contract (BscScan) shows totalSupply constant at 30,000,000 XVS.

    • Launchpool distribution ran for ~30 days from 2020-09-29 to 2020-10-29.

      Multiple contemporaneous announcements report 6,000,000 XVS (20% of supply) distributed via Binance Launchpool over ~30 days prior to listing.

    • Protocol emissions modeled as linear over 4 years post-Launchpool.

      Early communications describe ~23.7M XVS to be distributed to users over ~4 years starting after Launchpool with governance able to adjust per-market speeds. Later tokenomics updates (v3/v4) reallocated portions to XVS Vault base rewards (e.g., 630 then 308.7 XVS/day) and multichain incentives; we consolidate these under a single governance-controlled emissions allocation and model linearly for monthly charting.

    • BSC ecosystem grant reserve modeled linearly over 2021–2023.

      1% (300k XVS) was reserved for BSC ecosystem grants; no authoritative month-by-month schedule was published. We convert governance/event-based disbursements into an equivalent linear schedule for visualization. Actual timing may vary and should be updated as grants are executed.

Early docs and community posts reference ~0.64 XVS/block mining beginning after Launchpool; later tokenomics (v3/v4) rebalanced emissions and introduced base vault rewards (e.g., 630 XVS/day later reduced to 308.7 XVS/day) while keeping emissions governance-controlled.
