Quantus Tokenomics & Launch Allocation

Overview

Quantus has a fixed maximum supply of 21,000,000 QUAN. The token is issued through a combination of an initial Token Generation Event (TGE) and long-term Proof-of-Work mining. This structure is designed to avoid pre-mining, minimize insider advantages, and align long-term network security with user participation.

Token Supply

• Maximum Supply: 21,000,000 QUAN
• TGE Minted Supply: 7,350,000 QUAN (35%)
• Mining Emissions: 13,650,000 QUAN (65%) over ~40 years

The mining emission follows an exponentially decaying block reward curve, meaning issuance is higher in the early years and gradually slows over time as supply approaches the maximum.

Launch Allocation (TGE)

The following tokens are minted and distributed at the Token Generation Event:

All private and public sale tokens are fully liquid at launch. There are no investor lockups or vesting schedules.

Public sale proceeds (USDC) are paired 1:1 with QUAN and deposited directly into a liquidity pool. If the full 10% public sale fills, another 10% is minted to match it — 100% of public sale proceeds go into the LP.

Mining-Based Distribution (65%)

The remaining 65% of supply — 13,650,000 QUAN — is distributed through Proof-of-Work mining over approximately 40 years.

Company Alignment

Quantus does not pre-mine or reserve tokens for the team.

Instead, the company is compensated through a dev tax on block rewards:

• A portion of each block reward is allocated to the company. This acts as protocol-level vesting — tokens are earned alongside the network over approximately 5 years.
• This avoids Bitcoin's early supply curve problem, where early miners accumulated massive holdings that create perpetual overhang risk.

Lockups & Vesting

All private and public sale tokens are fully liquid at TGE. The team and advisors vest over four years with a one-year cliff. Company tokens are never pre-mined — they are earned gradually through a dev tax on block rewards.

Fees & Burning

To support long-term network security, wormhole transactions incur a 0.1% volume fee:

• 50% is paid to miners
• 50% is burned

This introduces deflationary pressure as network usage grows.

Funding History

Two private rounds are closed, with 7% of total supply sold. Token valuation is 2x equity valuation — industry standard, reflected in all contracts. All fundraising going forward is token sales only.
