WeMix (WEMIX) Token Unlock & Vesting Schedule
The unlock chart above provides a clear visual overview of the WeMix (WEMIX) 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 WEMIX 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
Supply, rewards, and halving
WEMIX is the network’s native coin. A 2023 “Brioche” hard fork introduced a permanent maximum supply cap of 590 million WEMIX and a “block minting halving” mechanism that gradually reduces the Permanent Minting Reward (PMR) per block over time. Initially set at 1 WEMIX per block, the PMR halves in multi‑year cycles to support long‑term scarcity while continuing to reward validators and contributors. Distribution of new issuance flows to validators (WONDERS), ecosystem funds, and maintenance, with parameters adjustable through on‑chain governance. (docs.wemix.com)
What the WEMIX token does
- Gas and payments: WEMIX pays for transactions, smart contract execution, and on‑chain services across the WeMix blockchain. (wemix.com)
- Staking and governance: Validators stake WEMIX to join or maintain WONDERS seats; delegations from the community are supported through WONDER Staking, aligning PMR rewards with stake weight. On‑chain proposals can adjust gas parameters, reward splits, and other network settings. (docs.wemix.com)
- DeFi, NFTs, gaming: WEMIX underpins swaps, lending, NFT trading, DAO voting, and game tokenomics across the ecosystem. The network’s DeFi stack now routes many functions through WemaxFi (a successor platform to parts of WEMIX.Fi), while WEMIX$ and other assets serve day‑to‑day economy needs. (docs.wemax.fi)
Buybacks and burns
The ecosystem has featured coin buyback initiatives funded from platform revenue, including WEMIX PAY programs that allocate a percentage of payment revenues to regular WEMIX buybacks, aiming to support a deflationary tilt as activity grows. These efforts complement fee burning under EIP‑1559 and halving‑driven issuance reductions. (wemixplay.com)
Assumptions
- PMR halving periods are modeled as 2-year (63,115,200-block) linear schedules with dates anchored to 2024-07-01.
Brioche hard fork applies halving by block count; end dates approximated to 2-year intervals for monthly modeling.
- Pre-Brioche PMR minted amount equals blocks from mainnet launch to 2024-07-01.
Halving applied from block 53,525,500; using 1 WEMIX/block results in ~53,525,500 WEMIX minted before halving.
- Foundation Vesting Plan 2023 distributions stop after 2024-07-01.
Brioche hard fork replaced prior vesting with new 5-year programs and a mass burn; modeled vesting only through June 2024.
- Team Compensation 2023 distributions began Nov 2023 and continued through June 2024 (8 months).
Lock expired Oct 2023; plan specified 60 monthly transfers; post-Brioche, team rewards restructured to 50M Development Costs with 40M burned.
- Reserve distribution under revised whitepaper releases 9,398,456 WEMIX annually for 5 years starting 2024-07-01.
Transfer disclosure listed 2024 tranche and stated 46.99M Reserve to be distributed over five years.
- 2,000,000 WEMIX in Staking Box is permanently excluded from circulation and therefore not modeled as an unlock.
Explicitly excluded in burn/transfer disclosures; cannot be withdrawn by users.
- Total supply capped at 590,000,000; block minting ceases after the 16th halving.
