$ESIM Tokenomics

$ESIM is the native utility token of the Depinsim ecosystem, designed to align long-term network growth, real-world usage, and sustainable incentives across users, builders, and partners.

The tokenomics model of $ESIM prioritises community participation, ecosystem expansion, and long-term commitment, while maintaining disciplined supply distribution and transparent vesting mechanisms.

Token Allocation Overview

The total supply of $ESIM is allocated across the following categories:

🔹 Community & Airdrops — 25%

The largest portion is reserved for community incentives, including airdrops, user rewards, and activity-based distributions. This reflects Depinsim’s core philosophy: value is created through real usage, not speculation.

🔹 Team & Advisors — 17.5%

Allocated to core contributors and long-term advisors, with structured vesting to ensure sustained alignment with the protocol’s development and roadmap execution.

🔹 Ecosystem Development — 15%

Used to support infrastructure growth, developer incentives, integrations, and ecosystem partnerships that expand the real-world utility of Depinsim.

🔹 Investors — 12.8%

Reserved for early strategic backers who provide long-term capital, network resources, and operational support to the protocol.

🔹 Foundation & Grants — 15.62%

Dedicated to research, grants, community programs, and long-term ecosystem resilience under the Depinsim Foundation framework.

🔹 Liquidity & Listings & Strategic Marketing — ~14% (combined)

Includes:

  • Liquidity provisioning

  • Centralised exchange (CEX) listings

  • Strategic marketing initiatives

  • Binance ecosystem campaigns (Alpha, Wallet, HODLer Rewards, Affiliate Programs)

These allocations are designed to ensure healthy market dynamics while expanding $ESIM’s global reach.


Token Vesting Schedule

To promote long-term stability and reduce short-term supply pressure, $ESIM follows a multi-year vesting schedule with gradual token releases.

Key Principles:

  • No aggressive early unlocks for team or investors

  • Linear and milestone-based releases aligned with ecosystem growth

  • Progressive community distribution tied to real usage and participation

Vesting Highlights:

  • Community and ecosystem-related allocations unlock progressively as network activity increases

  • Team & advisor tokens are released gradually over an extended period

  • Strategic marketing and exchange-related allocations follow controlled, phased releases

  • Full supply unlock completes over multiple years, ensuring predictable circulation growth

This structure supports a healthy balance between circulating supply, network incentives, and long-term value creation.


Utility-Driven Token Design

$ESIM is not a passive governance asset. It plays an active role across the Depinsim ecosystem, including:

  • Network participation and incentives

  • Data, connectivity, and service settlement

  • Staking and long-term commitment mechanisms

  • Ecosystem rewards and future protocol utilities

As Depinsim expands across consumer, enterprise, and infrastructure layers, $ESIM serves as the economic backbone connecting usage with value accrual.


Long-Term Alignment

The $ESIM tokenomics model is designed to ensure that:

  • Users benefit from real participation

  • Builders are rewarded for long-term contribution

  • The ecosystem grows sustainably without short-term inflation shocks

By combining disciplined allocation, transparent vesting, and real-world utility, $ESIM aims to support Depinsim’s vision of a decentralised, usage-driven global connectivity network.
