Today was really busy for the Monad ecosystem, so here is the ultimate guide and summary of all the information we got.
Tokenomics
A. There will be 49.4 percent unlocked on TGE day as the following:
- 3.3 percent airdrop available for trade
- 7.5 percent ICO available for trade
- 38.5 percent not tradable on day one because this part will be staked to validators and used later for ecosystem incentives
B. Only 10.8% of the supply will be tradable on day one, and all of it is controlled by the community since there is no liquidity, no CEX allocation, and no investor allocation.
C. The remaining 50.6% is locked and will start unlocking from November 2026, over three years until it’s fully unlocked.
Airdrop
The initial airdrop was 4.73%, but only 3.33% was claimed. The remaining 1.4 percent went back to the ecosystem pot for future incentives.
Important notes about the airdrop:
- Monad community claimed 50% of the airdrop, which is 1.66% percent of total supply, making them the main claimers and biggest holders.
- 463 community members received allocations above 1 million tokens.
- Onchain users claimed 21% of the airdrop, equal to 0.696% of total supply.
- Monad Card users claimed 11% of airdrop , equal to 0.365% of total supply.
ICO
Monad will be the first coin to launch on @coinbase ICO launchpad, and here are the key points:
-People from over 80 countries can join the ICO, including USA and UK, which was not possible in past ICOs.
-Monad will sell 7.5 % of the token at 2.5B FDV, aiming to raise 187.5M.
- If you sell your ICO tokens in the first 30 days, you can’t join the next ICO on Coinbase.
- Coinbase launchpad will prioritize lower subscription to give more people a fair chance to join.

Today, we are announcing the MON public sale - an effort to give everyday people the opportunity to become a stakeholder in the Monad network token, days before the public network launch.
The public sale of MON will go live on Coinbase token sales, a new platform from Coinbase for token distribution, a week from today.
This is the very first public sale that Coinbase has hosted, and it will be made available to 80+ countries, including the United States of America.
7.5% of the total monad supply will be sold at a price of $0.025/token.
At the Monad Foundation, we think big. Over 285,000 accounts were made eligible for the MON airdrop, in an attempt to get people who eat, sleep, and breathe crypto to be the initial stakeholders of the Monad ecosystem. This public sale has the potential to extend the reach of Monad by extending the distribution of MON into the hands of millions of regular people.
This sale is attempting to fulfill crypto’s founding promise: open, fair, and inclusive finance.
Monad was built in part to onboard the general public to crypto, and provide them with the tech that is ready for mass adoption. The world is a big place, and crypto needs to grow far beyond the Crypto Twitter bubble.
Onwards! ⚔️
LOCKED MONAD TOKENS ARE NOT STAKEABLE
Monad has been built painstakingly over the past 3.5 years. We take a long term view and aren’t afraid to do things differently from others.
Today, ahead of the launch of the Public Mainnet, I’d like to share an important element of the Monad tokenomics design: locked MON may not be staked.
Time and time again in previous blockchain launches, the crypto community has had the same complaint: insiders’ ability to stake and earn rewards (liquid or otherwise) on locked tokens. We heard those complaints and are taking a firm stance on this matter, in an effort to set a new standard for the space.
The north star of Monad is true decentralization. The network will go live with 200 globally distributed validators that are run on consumer-grade hardware. While it would have been easier to cut corners, our team has taken the hard road in designing a system that delivers both performance and decentralization. What we build must stand the test of time. I believe that this firm stance on staking of locked tokens similarly positions Monad toward long-term success through better token distribution.
On a personal note, I appreciate the support of investors including @paradigm, @dragonfly_xyz, @ElectricCapital, and @CastleIslandVC. We build for the long term and are grateful for the long-term-oriented thinking and support of Monad’s earliest backers.
No shortcuts!
brother...lock in.
you're gonna wanna be early for this one, my guy.
first movers eat.
hop on the waitlist and start racking up points before the rest of the @monad squad shows up.
