Only 16% circulation! Chainbase (C) token unlock schedule revealed, low circulating supply + strong demand, positioning now is like picking up early chips
The total supply of Chainbase (C) tokens is 1 billion, with only 160 million currently in circulation (16% of total), and the remaining 84% of chips are distributed clearly:
• Team share: 15% (150 million), locked until Q1 2026, then released in 4 batches (25% each quarter);
• Institutional share: 25% (250 million), held by institutions such as Tencent and Jingwei Venture Capital, unlocking starts in Q2 2026, with 30% released in the first year;
• Ecosystem reserve: 44% (440 million), used for node rewards, developer subsidies, acquisitions, etc., gradually released according to ecosystem growth rate (currently releasing 0.5% per month).
The explosive potential of low circulating supply: Referencing the Arkham case
When Arkham launched in 2024, the circulation was only 12%. Due to explosive ecosystem demand, it increased 5 times within 3 months — Chainbase's current scenario is clearer: data call volume increases by 50% month-on-month, institutional holdings are locked, retail demand is strong, and scarcity premium has begun to show.
Positioning strategy:
• Short-term support level: $0.32-0.33 (dense trading area in the last 20 days, corresponding to the 200-day moving average support);
• Adding position signal: Breakthrough $0.35 (previous high pressure level), indicating that buying pressure has absorbed short-term selling pressure, confirming an upward trend;
• Holding suggestion: Small funds can allocate 5%-10% of positions, medium-term target $0.54 (Q4 institutional forecast), stop-loss set at $0.30 (a drop below this indicates a reversal of the short-term trend).
