I just saw the announcement from Opinion Foundation about the OPN tokenomics and thought it would be interesting to share the details. Basically, there are 1 billion tokens in total, but the distribution is well thought out.
What stands out most is that 235 million (23.5%) will go to airdrops, and only 3.5% are released at TGE. This means that most tokens are initially locked. The team and advisors receive 195 million with a 12-month lock followed by linear release over 24 months, while investors hold 230 million.
The foundation retains 120 million (12%), but only releases 1% at TGE. Marketing gets 89 million with 7.7% already available at launch. For ecosystem and incentives, 111 million with a more accelerated release (5.65% at TGE, including locked airdrop rewards and retroactive incentives). Liquidity and market making receive 20 million, with everything unlocked at TGE.
The tokens have real utility: access to premium oracle data, fee payments, VIP privileges, and governance. The roadmap projects TGE in the first quarter of 2026, focusing on ecosystem growth and decentralization afterward. Currently, circulating supply is around 142 million (14.2% of the total), well below what was initially planned for launch.
