GRID allocation ledger
Five billion for verified compute. Five billion for building, protecting, launching, and sustaining the network—with every treasury unit assigned a job.
The complete supply
The planned mainnet supply can never exceed 10B GRID. Compute rewards and treasury allocations are separately bounded so neither can consume the other's share.

Compute mining
Issued only for verified work, subject to a 25,000 GRID hourly ceiling.

Treasury allocation
Divided into seven disclosed buckets with separate release controls.
Inside the treasury
“Treasury” is an umbrella, not a blank check. Its seven sub-allocations total exactly 5B GRID.

50% total
Reserved for machines that complete verified GRID work. The emission controller may issue no more than 25,000 GRID per hour and no more than 5B over its lifetime. Unused hourly capacity is not automatically minted.
Release control
On-chain emission controller · verified receipts · duplicate protection
1.50B
15% total
Funds open-source engineering, protocol integrations, developer tools, research, and grants that expand useful demand or compute supply. Releases should follow published milestones rather than unrestricted transfers.
Release control
Milestone releases · public grants ledger · treasury multisig
750M
7.5% total
Pays for independent audits, incident response, infrastructure, verification services, legal and compliance work, and the ordinary cost of operating the network safely.
Release control
Annual budgets · vendor disclosure · treasury multisig
500M
5% total
Recognizes the founder's creation and long-term stewardship of GRID. Nothing vests during year one; the allocation then vests monthly over four years and cannot be unlocked early by the founder alone.
Release control
1-year cliff · 4-year monthly vest · public vesting account
500M
5% total
Reserved for employees and long-term contributors who build the protocol, applications, ecosystem, and operations. Awards are earned under written agreements and multi-year vesting—not given as instantly liquid bonuses.
Release control
Documented awards · vesting contracts · forfeiture of unvested grants
750M
7.5% total
Supports early node participation, education, public test programs, community events, and targeted adoption. Campaign rules and results should be published to prevent undisclosed insider distributions.
Release control
Scheduled programs · eligibility rules · post-program reports
750M
7.5% total
Reserved for transparent market liquidity when GRID reaches that stage. These tokens are market infrastructure—not founder proceeds—and should remain in disclosed liquidity or market-making accounts.
Release control
Dedicated multisig · disclosed venues · inventory reporting
250M
2.5% total
A limited reserve for severe security incidents, critical recovery, or continuity events that cannot wait for an ordinary budget cycle. It is not a general-purpose discretionary wallet.
Release control
Higher signature threshold · time delay · incident disclosure
Founder allocation
The founder allocation is stated plainly: 500M GRID, equal to 5% of maximum supply. Long vesting aligns stewardship with the network rather than creating an immediately liquid insider position.
Cliff
0 GRID vested
Monthly vesting
500M released evenly across 48 months
What “allocated” means
An allocation defines the maximum assigned to a purpose. It does not mean every token is immediately minted, unlocked, circulating, sold, or spent. Public reporting must distinguish each of those states.
Current status
This page records the planned production allocation. GRID currently uses Solana devnet for engineering tests. Devnet tokens have no economic value and are not counted as mainnet treasury or founder distributions.
Public accountability
Mainnet wallets, vesting contracts, and multisig controls will be published before production distribution.
