Backpack Unveils Token Allocation for TGE, Pre-IPO, and Corporate Treasury Lock-up
Backpack has revealed its tokenomics that will unfold over the near future. So, the 1st event to unlock a notable token amount will be the Token Generation Event (TGE). Particularly, Backpack’s TGE will unlock up to 25% of the project’s supply, taking into account 250M tokens. The respective mount will reportedly include 240M for those holding points. Additionally, the other 1% (10M) will go to Mad Lads.
Apart from that, Backpack will unveil the next 37.5% of its tokens, equaling a cumulative 625M tokens progressively during the pre-IPO phase. Specifically, this portion will directly relate to meaningful growth milestones. In addition to this, the rest of 37.5%, comprising 357M tokens, will stay locked.
Hence, the platform will keep it in its corporate treasury till 1 year following the IPO thereof. This will guarantee the alignment between investors and the team with the platform’s long-term success. First of all, the pre-IPO allocation serves as an organized buffer to back the expansion of Backpack across the worldwide markets as well as product verticals. While discussing this, Armani Ferrante, the founder of the project, stressed the need for liquid tokens to specifically go to consumers, with every unlock emerging as a notable catalyst for unique growth opportunities.
Post-IPO Token Constraints Delay Insider Rewards to Ensure Public Market Success
According to Backpack, the post-IPO token unlocks signify its guiding principle that insiders should only profit after the firm’s escape from velocity. So, locking tokens for 1 year guarantees that the creation of wealth for insiders remains bound to the success of company in the public market. Ultimately, by anchoring the tokenomics thereof to IPO readiness and consumer growth, the platform is elevating its status as an initiative that merges traditional financial quality with crypto innovation.
