Token Unlock and Distribution Framework
To promote long-term alignment and responsible distribution, team tokens are subject to vesting schedules tied to both time and performance. Allocations for team members and new hires include a 12-month cliff followed by annual unlocks contingent on key milestones such as platform usage and ticket sales growth.
Similarly, Ecosystem and Community Rewards tokens will be unlocked gradually in tranches based on MINGO’s operational growth, particularly cumulative ticket sales and active ecosystem metrics like user onboarding. This ensures that token distribution scales with real-world utility.
A detailed unlock forecast by year (2026–2032) and related performance targets will be included, along with assumptions for projected platform growth and liquidity benchmarks.
