# Token Allocation Breakdown

<figure><img src="https://2131822819-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FjUKyAAxhKAXEhM3uED6e%2Fuploads%2FbUu3qCYqLfd0YbGMOv90%2F4.jpg?alt=media&#x26;token=80c079e2-6076-4b8f-943c-d96d0e4e0b64" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

$TAPZI has a **fixed total supply of 5,000,000,000 tokens**.

Whitepaper 3.0 does **not** change Tapzi's existing token allocation.

The expansion of Tapzi into developer infrastructure, creator tooling, tournament infrastructure, broader distribution, and future adjacent services is designed around the **existing token supply and allocation framework**.

> **Plan 3 expands the utility and business architecture around $TAPZI. It does not expand the token supply.**

***

### 1. Token Overview

| Parameter                | Value                   |
| ------------------------ | ----------------------- |
| **Token Name**           | TAPZI                   |
| **Ticker**               | $TAPZI                  |
| **Initial Network**      | BNB Smart Chain         |
| **Token Standard**       | BEP-20                  |
| **Maximum Total Supply** | **5,000,000,000 TAPZI** |

The maximum supply is distributed across eight existing allocation categories.

No additional allocation categories are introduced by Whitepaper 3.0.

***

### 2. Token Allocation

| Allocation                  |                  Tokens | % of Total Supply |
| --------------------------- | ----------------------: | ----------------: |
| **Presale**                 | **1,000,000,000 TAPZI** |           **20%** |
| **Airdrop & Bonuses**       |   **500,000,000 TAPZI** |           **10%** |
| **Ecosystem & Development** |   **500,000,000 TAPZI** |           **10%** |
| **Team**                    |   **500,000,000 TAPZI** |           **10%** |
| **Marketing**               |   **500,000,000 TAPZI** |           **10%** |
| **Liquidity Pool**          | **1,000,000,000 TAPZI** |           **20%** |
| **Locked Treasury**         |   **750,000,000 TAPZI** |           **15%** |
| **User Rewards**            |   **250,000,000 TAPZI** |            **5%** |
| **TOTAL**                   | **5,000,000,000 TAPZI** |          **100%** |

These figures remain unchanged from Tapzi's existing published tokenomics.

***

### 3. Allocation Structure

The allocation is designed to support both initial network availability and long-term ecosystem development.

#### 3.1 Presale: 20%

**Allocation:** 1,000,000,000 TAPZI

The Presale allocation represents **20% of the fixed total supply**.

These tokens are allocated to the structured Tapzi token presale and remain subject to the existing published unlock and vesting conditions.

The Presale allocation is not increased under Whitepaper 3.0.

For the applicable release schedule, see [Vesting Schedule Overview](/tokenomics/vesting-schedule-overview.md).

***

#### 3.2 Airdrop & Bonuses: 10%

**Allocation:** 500,000,000 TAPZI

The Airdrop & Bonuses allocation represents **10% of the fixed total supply**.

This allocation supports eligible initiatives such as:

* early-user campaigns;
* community engagement;
* referral programs;
* promotional initiatives;
* other published bonus programs.

Any distribution from this allocation remains subject to the applicable Tapzi program terms and existing vesting structure.

Whitepaper 3.0 does not create an additional airdrop or community allocation.

***

#### 3.3 Ecosystem & Development: 10%

**Allocation:** 500,000,000 TAPZI

The Ecosystem & Development allocation represents **10% of the fixed total supply**.

It is intended to support the continued development and expansion of the Tapzi ecosystem.

This allocation can support ecosystem priorities consistent with Tapzi's published framework, including applicable:

* platform development;
* infrastructure development;
* backend systems;
* ecosystem expansion;
* technical integrations;
* developer initiatives;
* product development.

Whitepaper 3.0 introduces a broader infrastructure strategy, but it does **not** create separate token allocations for each new product.

There is therefore no new token allocation specifically created for:

* Tapzi Studio;
* Tournament Cloud;
* Tapzi GameBuilder;
* Tapzi Pay;
* Telegram distribution;
* dedicated settlement infrastructure;
* AI-agent research.

Plan 3 operates within the existing supply architecture.

***

#### 3.4 Team: 10%

**Allocation:** 500,000,000 TAPZI

The Team allocation represents **10% of the fixed total supply**.

It supports long-term alignment between core contributors and the development of the Tapzi ecosystem.

The Team allocation remains subject to the existing published:

* TGE unlock conditions;
* cliff;
* vesting schedule.

Whitepaper 3.0 does not increase the Team allocation or accelerate its release.

The complete schedule is available in [Vesting Schedule Overview](/tokenomics/vesting-schedule-overview.md).

***

#### 3.5 Marketing: 10%

**Allocation:** 500,000,000 TAPZI

The Marketing allocation represents **10% of the fixed total supply**.

It supports eligible activities associated with network growth, including applicable:

* marketing campaigns;
* community growth;
* partnerships;
* promotional initiatives;
* user acquisition;
* ecosystem awareness.

Plan 3's broader positioning does not increase the Marketing allocation.

Distribution remains governed by the existing allocation and vesting structure.

***

#### 3.6 Liquidity Pool: 20%

**Allocation:** 1,000,000,000 TAPZI

The Liquidity Pool allocation represents **20% of the fixed total supply**.

This allocation is reserved for liquidity provisioning associated with $TAPZI.

Its existence should not be interpreted as a guarantee of:

* market liquidity;
* exchange availability;
* trading volume;
* token price;
* price stability.

Liquidity conditions can change based on market activity and other factors.

The allocation itself remains unchanged under Whitepaper 3.0.

***

#### 3.7 Locked Treasury: 15%

**Allocation:** 750,000,000 TAPZI

The Locked Treasury represents **15% of the fixed total supply**.

It serves as a long-term strategic reserve for the Tapzi ecosystem.

Potential use remains subject to the applicable treasury controls, token-release conditions, and published governance framework.

The treasury allocation is not a newly created Plan 3 reserve.

It is part of Tapzi's original published token distribution.

Whitepaper 3.0 does not:

* increase the treasury allocation;
* accelerate its unlock;
* remove its cliff;
* change its vesting schedule.

Where treasury addresses, vesting contracts, or control mechanisms are publicly verifiable, they should be referenced through the **Tapzi Proof Center**.

***

#### 3.8 User Rewards: 5%

**Allocation:** 250,000,000 TAPZI

The User Rewards allocation represents **5% of the fixed total supply**.

It supports eligible ecosystem reward programs such as applicable:

* tournament rewards;
* leaderboard incentives;
* user participation programs;
* community initiatives;
* other published network incentives.

The existence of this allocation does not establish a fixed yield, guaranteed return, or unlimited reward program.

Rewards distributed from this allocation remain bounded by the existing fixed supply and applicable release schedule.

Whitepaper 3.0 does not create a second user-reward pool.

***

### 4. Allocation Summary

The fixed supply can be viewed across four broad functional groups.

#### Network Distribution

**Presale: 20%**

Provides the initial public token distribution.

#### Liquidity & Long-Term Reserve

**Liquidity Pool: 20%**

**Locked Treasury: 15%**

Supports liquidity provisioning and long-term ecosystem reserves.

#### Ecosystem Growth

**Ecosystem & Development: 10%**

**Marketing: 10%**

**Airdrop & Bonuses: 10%**

**User Rewards: 5%**

Supports product development, ecosystem expansion, acquisition, community programs, and user incentives within the published allocation framework.

#### Contributor Alignment

**Team: 10%**

Supports long-term contributor participation subject to the existing vesting schedule.

These groupings are explanatory only.

They do **not** modify the eight canonical token-allocation categories above.

***

### 5. Allocation Is Not the Same as Circulating Supply

The total allocation assigned to a category does not mean that the entire allocation is immediately circulating.

Circulating availability depends on factors including:

* TGE unlock percentage;
* cliff period;
* vesting duration;
* applicable release schedule.

For example, an allocation can represent a fixed percentage of the total supply while most of those tokens remain locked or subject to vesting.

For this reason:

> **Token Allocation and Token Vesting must be read together.**

The complete release schedule is provided in [Vesting Schedule Overview](/tokenomics/vesting-schedule-overview.md).

***

### 6. Whitepaper 3.0 Does Not Create New Supply

Tapzi's expanded Plan 3 architecture includes potential products and infrastructure such as:

* Tapzi Studio;
* Tournament Cloud;
* Tapzi GameBuilder;
* creator services;
* additional distribution channels;
* Tapzi Pay;
* future settlement research;
* AI-agent research.

None of these initiatives creates an automatic right to additional token supply.

Whitepaper 3.0 introduces:

**new potential utility**

and

**new potential business models**

not new $TAPZI allocations.

The maximum supply remains:

### **5,000,000,000 TAPZI**

***

### 7. No New Allocation Categories

For clarity, Whitepaper 3.0 does **not** introduce:

* a Tapzi Studio allocation;
* a GameBuilder allocation;
* a Tapzi Pay allocation;
* a merchant-staking allocation;
* a Layer-3 allocation;
* an AI-agent allocation;
* a new staking-reward allocation;
* a protocol-revenue allocation;
* additional team tokens;
* additional treasury tokens.

Future initiatives must operate within the existing ecosystem and business framework unless a separately disclosed protocol change is lawfully and technically possible.

Nothing in Whitepaper 3.0 should be interpreted as modifying the canonical allocation table on this page.

***

### 8. No Inflationary Expansion

Whitepaper 3.0 does not introduce a new inflationary emissions model.

The fixed token supply remains the basis of the $TAPZI token architecture.

Rewards, incentives, ecosystem programs, and future utility should therefore be distinguished from the creation of new supply.

A new product does not mean new tokens are created.

A new utility does not mean a new allocation is created.

***

### 9. Token Allocation vs Network Economics

Whitepaper 3.0 separates two concepts that were previously easy to confuse.

#### Token Allocation

Answers:

> **Where are the existing 5 billion TAPZI allocated?**

This page provides that answer.

***

#### Network Economics

Answers:

> **How can Tapzi products and infrastructure generate revenue?**

Potential future revenue may come from areas such as:

* competitive infrastructure;
* Tapzi Studio;
* Tournament Cloud;
* GameBuilder;
* enterprise services;
* analytics;
* Tapzi Pay.

Revenue generated by the business does not alter the fixed token allocation shown above.

This distinction allows Tapzi to expand commercially without redesigning its token supply.

***

### 10. Token Allocation vs Token Utility

Token allocation also differs from token utility.

#### Allocation

Defines where the fixed token supply is assigned.

#### Utility

Defines what eligible participants may use $TAPZI for within the ecosystem.

Plan 3 may expand utility through:

* developer services;
* creator services;
* tournament infrastructure;
* future merchant services;
* other network functionality.

Those additional utilities do not modify the allocation table.

***

### 11. Vesting Protection

The purpose of the vesting framework is to control when tokens from applicable allocations become available according to the published schedule.

The existing vesting framework includes different:

* TGE unlock percentages;
* cliffs;
* vesting periods;

for different token categories.

Whitepaper 3.0 makes no changes to those schedules.

For the canonical figures, see:

### [Vesting Schedule Overview](/tokenomics/vesting-schedule-overview.md)

***

### 12. Transparency & Verification

Tapzi intends to make token information increasingly easy to verify through the **Tapzi Proof Center**.

Where publicly available and appropriate, token transparency may include:

* token contract address;
* total supply;
* allocation table;
* vesting schedule;
* vesting contract addresses;
* treasury-related addresses;
* liquidity-related information;
* blockchain explorer links;
* relevant audit reports.

Only verified addresses and contracts should be published as official.

No address should be inferred or added solely from third-party sources.

***

### 13. Canonical Tokenomics Policy

This page is one of Tapzi's canonical tokenomics references.

The following rules apply across Tapzi documentation:

#### One Fixed Supply

**5,000,000,000 TAPZI**

#### One Allocation Framework

The eight categories and figures published on this page.

#### One Vesting Framework

The schedules published in [Vesting Schedule Overview](/tokenomics/vesting-schedule-overview.md).

If another Tapzi page contains conflicting token-supply, allocation, or vesting figures, that conflicting page should be corrected.

The canonical Token Allocation and Vesting pages should **not** be modified merely to reconcile newer marketing or strategic material.

***

### 14. Allocation Integrity

Whitepaper 3.0 preserves the economic commitments already communicated through Tapzi's tokenomics.

| Allocation              |            Tokens | Percentage |
| ----------------------- | ----------------: | ---------: |
| Presale                 |     1,000,000,000 |        20% |
| Airdrop & Bonuses       |       500,000,000 |        10% |
| Ecosystem & Development |       500,000,000 |        10% |
| Team                    |       500,000,000 |        10% |
| Marketing               |       500,000,000 |        10% |
| Liquidity Pool          |     1,000,000,000 |        20% |
| Locked Treasury         |       750,000,000 |        15% |
| User Rewards            |       250,000,000 |         5% |
| **TOTAL**               | **5,000,000,000** |   **100%** |

> **The network can evolve. The published token allocation remains unchanged.**
