🧠 Topic: What is token distribution - who receives coins, how it affects the price, and why it's important to know how much the community has and how much the VC has
🎯 Token distribution is about who receives how many tokens from the total supply and under what conditions.@Cryptoland_88
It affects everything:
📈 price growth$BTC
📉 market pressure$BNB
🔒 lockup periods
👥 voting power$SOL
📊 Key categories of distribution:
Category Who receives Why it's important
👨💻 Team (Founders, devs) Can cause a dump upon unlocking
💼 Funds / VC (Investors) Buy cheap, lock in profits early
👥 Community (#Airdrop , farming) A more "fair" distribution
🏛 Treasury (#DAO -reserve) Determines the fate of the ecosystem
🚀 Launchpad (IDO, IEO, INO) Often inflated prices
🧑🌾 Emission (For farming, staking) Potential inflation
🔍 Why is this important?
🧨 VC holds 30–50%?
→ Prepare for dumps
🧠 Team without vesting?
→ Red flag
👥 Community only 5%?
→ Where's the decentralization?
🏦 Treasury empty?
→ No resources for development
💡 Example:
Project XYZ
Total Supply: 1,000,000,000
Distribution:
• Team: 20% (vesting 3 years)
• VC: 25% (unlocking from the 6th month)
• Airdrop: 5%
• Treasury: 30%
• Staking/Farming: 20%
→ Means:
✅ The team won't dump immediately
🚩 VC might dump after the cliff
⚠️ Airdrop will dump quickly
💰 Treasury and farming = pressure
📉 Poor distribution = risks:
Centralization (1 address = 40%)
Early investors sell on you
Community does not participate
Management is held by 3–5 wallets
📌 Where to look for token distribution:
🔹 Whitepaper / tokenomics
🔹 Token.unlocks.app
🔹 Messari
🔹 Cryptorank
🔹 Dashboards on Dune / DeFiLlama
🧠 Conclusion:
Token distribution = project economy.
If you want to earn - first look at who already holds these tokens in their pockets.
Buy where there is a balance between the fund, the team, and the community.

What is a token use case (#utility ), why the token is needed at all, and how to distinguish "useless junk" from a real asset.
