Vesting Schedule Overview
Tapzi uses predefined token release schedules to control when tokens from different allocations become available.
The vesting framework is designed to balance:
initial network availability;
ecosystem development;
liquidity requirements;
contributor alignment;
treasury discipline;
progressive token distribution.
Whitepaper 3.0 makes no changes to Tapzi's existing published vesting schedule.
The network strategy is evolving. The published token release commitments remain unchanged.
1. Vesting Overview
Tapzi has a fixed maximum supply of:
5,000,000,000 TAPZI
Each allocation has its own combination of:
TGE Unlock
The amount available at Token Generation Event.
Cliff
A period during which no additional tokens from that allocation become available.
Vesting
The period over which the remaining applicable allocation is progressively released.
The complete existing schedule is:

1,000,000,000
250,000,000

These schedules remain unchanged under Whitepaper 3.0.
For the allocation categories and percentages, see Token Allocation Breakdown.
2. Understanding the Release Sequence
For allocations subject to a cliff and vesting period, the general sequence is:
Different allocations use different schedules because they serve different purposes within the ecosystem.
3. Presale
Total Allocation: 1,000,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 20%
TGE Unlock
250,000,000 TAPZI: 25% of the Presale allocation
Cliff
2 months
Vesting
4 months
The remaining Presale allocation is subject to the existing published vesting schedule following the cliff.
Whitepaper 3.0 does not:
increase the TGE unlock;
shorten the cliff;
shorten the vesting period;
create an accelerated Plan 3 unlock.
The strategic expansion of Tapzi does not alter Presale vesting.
4. Airdrop & Bonuses
Total Allocation: 500,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 10%
TGE Unlock
50,000,000 TAPZI: 10%
Cliff
2 months
Vesting
4 months
This allocation supports eligible community, referral, promotional, and bonus initiatives according to their applicable terms.
Whitepaper 3.0 does not create an additional airdrop allocation.
5. Ecosystem & Development
Total Allocation: 500,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 10%
TGE Unlock
100,000,000 TAPZI: 20%
Cliff
1 month
Vesting
6 months
This allocation supports Tapzi ecosystem and development requirements within the existing token framework.
The expansion into:
Tapzi Studio;
Tournament Cloud;
GameBuilder;
creator infrastructure;
additional distribution;
other Plan 3 initiatives;
does not create a new token allocation or alter this release schedule.
6. Team
Total Allocation: 500,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 10%
TGE Unlock
0 TAPZI: 0%
Cliff
12 months
Vesting
18 months
No Team tokens are scheduled for release at TGE.
The 12-month cliff provides a period before Team allocation vesting begins.
Following the cliff, the allocation is subject to the existing 18-month vesting schedule.
Whitepaper 3.0 does not:
increase the Team allocation;
provide an early Team unlock;
reduce the cliff;
accelerate the 18-month vesting schedule.
7. Marketing
Total Allocation: 500,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 10%
TGE Unlock
50,000,000 TAPZI: 10%
Cliff
1 month
Vesting
6 months
This allocation supports eligible marketing, ecosystem-awareness, partnership, and user-acquisition initiatives.
The schedule remains unchanged as Tapzi's positioning expands under Whitepaper 3.0.
8. Liquidity Pool
Total Allocation: 1,000,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 20%
TGE Availability
1,000,000,000 TAPZI: 100%
Cliff
None
Vesting
None
The Liquidity Pool allocation is available according to the existing published tokenomics framework.
Availability of this allocation should not be interpreted as a guarantee of:
exchange listing;
token liquidity;
trading volume;
token price;
price stability.
Actual liquidity conditions depend on market and implementation factors.
9. Locked Treasury
Total Allocation: 750,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 15%
TGE Unlock
0 TAPZI: 0%
Cliff
12 months
Vesting
24 months
The Locked Treasury is structured as a long-term ecosystem reserve.
No treasury tokens are scheduled for release at TGE.
Whitepaper 3.0 does not:
increase the Treasury allocation;
remove its 12-month cliff;
reduce its 24-month vesting period;
create a separate Plan 3 treasury allocation.
Future treasury-governance improvements may affect how treasury assets are authorized or managed, but they do not change this token release schedule.
10. User Rewards
Total Allocation: 250,000,000 TAPZI
Share of Total Supply: 5%
TGE Unlock
37,500,000 TAPZI: 15%
Cliff
2 months
Vesting
12 months
The User Rewards allocation supports eligible ecosystem incentive programs such as applicable:
tournaments;
leaderboard rewards;
community initiatives;
user participation programs.
Whitepaper 3.0 does not create another reward allocation or increase this 5% allocation.
11. TGE Availability Summary
The scheduled TGE availability across the existing allocations is:
Presale
250,000,000 TAPZI
Airdrop & Bonuses
50,000,000 TAPZI
Ecosystem & Development
100,000,000 TAPZI
Team
0 TAPZI
Marketing
50,000,000 TAPZI
Liquidity Pool
1,000,000,000 TAPZI
Locked Treasury
0 TAPZI
User Rewards
37,500,000 TAPZI
Total Scheduled TGE Availability
1,487,500,000 TAPZI
This equals 29.75% of the fixed maximum supply.
Important
TGE availability is not automatically identical to circulating supply.
Tokens allocated for purposes such as liquidity or ecosystem operations may have different practical circulation characteristics.
Therefore, any public circulating-supply figure should be based on actual token availability and on-chain conditions at the relevant time rather than simply treating every TGE-available token as circulating.
12. Cliff Summary
Two allocations use the longest initial cliff:
Team
12 months
Locked Treasury
12 months
Other allocations use shorter cliffs based on their ecosystem function:
Presale
2 months
Airdrop & Bonuses
2 months
Ecosystem & Development
1 month
Marketing
1 month
User Rewards
2 months
Liquidity Pool
No cliff
These periods remain unchanged.
13. Vesting Is Not New Token Creation
Vesting controls when existing tokens become available.
It does not increase the maximum supply.
For example:
A token becoming unlocked through vesting:
does not create a new token
and
does not change the allocation percentage.
It changes only the availability of tokens already included within the fixed:
5,000,000,000 TAPZI supply
This distinction is important when evaluating future circulating supply.
14. Whitepaper 3.0 Does Not Reset Vesting
The transition from Tapzi's original whitepaper to Whitepaper 3.0 is a strategic evolution of the ecosystem.
It is not a new token launch.
Whitepaper 3.0 therefore does not:
restart vesting clocks;
reset cliffs;
extend existing schedules;
accelerate existing schedules;
replace existing allocations;
issue a second token;
create additional supply.
Any vesting timing that depends on TGE remains tied to the applicable TGE event and canonical token documentation.
15. Plan 3 Products Do Not Receive New Allocations
The expanded Tapzi architecture may include:
Tapzi Studio;
Tournament Cloud;
Tapzi GameBuilder;
creator services;
additional distribution channels;
Tapzi Pay;
future settlement infrastructure research;
AI-agent infrastructure research.
None of these products automatically receives a new token allocation.
Their development does not modify the vesting table on this page.
The principle remains:
New utility does not mean new supply. New products do not mean new allocations.
16. Vesting & Treasury Governance Are Different
Token vesting defines:
When tokens are eligible to become available.
Treasury governance defines:
Who can authorize the use of treasury-controlled assets and under what controls.
These concepts should not be confused.
Whitepaper 3.0 may introduce stronger future treasury-control architecture such as:
multisignature authorization;
greater transparency;
role separation;
independently verifiable controls;
timelocks where implemented.
Those governance mechanisms do not change:
the Locked Treasury allocation;
its 12-month cliff;
its 24-month vesting schedule.
17. Vesting Verification
Where technically available, Tapzi intends to make vesting information independently verifiable through the Tapzi Proof Center.
Relevant evidence may include:
vesting contract addresses;
blockchain explorer links;
token balances;
release transactions;
applicable contract source code;
audit references.
Only verified official contracts should be presented as canonical.
No contract address should be inferred from an unofficial source.
18. Unlock Transparency
As the token lifecycle progresses, Tapzi should maintain a clear public view of material unlock information.
Where practical, this may include:
Current Locked Amount
Tokens still subject to applicable restrictions.
Released Amount
Tokens released according to the canonical schedule.
Next Scheduled Unlock
The next material release event where applicable.
Allocation Source
The token category from which the release occurs.
Verification
Relevant on-chain evidence where available.
This information can be surfaced through the Proof Center without changing the underlying vesting schedule.
19. One Canonical Vesting Schedule
This page should be treated as the canonical public TAPZI vesting schedule.
The same numbers should be used across:
Tapzi.io;
Tapzi Docs;
presale interfaces;
token dashboards;
investor materials;
community communications.
If another Tapzi-controlled page contains conflicting vesting information, that page should be corrected.
This schedule should not be changed merely to reconcile inconsistent marketing copy.
20. Canonical Vesting Table
For clarity, the locked Whitepaper 3.0 schedule is:
Presale
25%
2 months
4 months
Airdrop & Bonuses
10%
2 months
4 months
Ecosystem & Development
20%
1 month
6 months
Team
0%
12 months
18 months
Marketing
10%
1 month
6 months
Liquidity Pool
100%
None
None
Locked Treasury
0%
12 months
24 months
User Rewards
15%
2 months
12 months
Whitepaper 3.0 expands Tapzi's network. It does not change Tapzi's token-release commitments.
