Vesting

What is Vesting?

Vesting is a mechanism for gradually distributing tokens after their purchase.

It prevents sudden market dumps and encourages holders to stay invested in the project long-term.

Why is Vesting Used in Presales?

Vesting in presales is used for:

• Preventing instant sell-offs after listing, reducing sudden price drops.

• Encouraging long-term holding, as investors receive tokens gradually.

• Ensuring ecosystem stability by distributing tokens evenly, reducing price manipulation risks.

Vesting Calculation Examples

Given:

• TGE Unlock – the percentage of tokens unlocked immediately at the Token Generation Event (TGE). The TGE for DOGEN was on February 4, 2025.

• Cliff – the period (in months) during which tokens are locked before vesting begins.

• Vesting – the period (in months) over which the remaining tokens are released in equal portions. Tokens are credited every minute.

• Purchase Amount: 10,000 tokens at each stage.

---

Example for Stage 1

• Price: $0.0003

• TGE Unlock: 3% → 10,000 * 3% = 300 tokens unlocked immediately

• Cliff: 4 months (tokens are locked)

• Vesting: 10 months (gradual release)

• Remaining tokens after TGE: 10,000 - 300 = 9,700 tokens

• Monthly release after Cliff: 9,700 / 10 = 970 tokens per month

✅ Distribution Schedule:

• Month 0 (TGE): 300 tokens

• Months 1-4: 0 tokens (Cliff)

• Months 5-14: 970 tokens per month

---

Example for Stage 6

• Price: $0.0008

• TGE Unlock: 5% → 10,000 * 5% = 500 tokens unlocked immediately

• Cliff: 1 month

• Vesting: 9 months

• Remaining tokens after TGE: 10,000 - 500 = 9,500 tokens

• Monthly release after Cliff: 9,500 / 9 = 1,056 tokens per month

✅ Distribution Schedule:

• Month 0 (TGE): 500 tokens

• Month 1: 0 tokens (Cliff)

• Months 2-10: 1,056 tokens per month

---

Example for Stage 13

• Price: $0.0019

• TGE Unlock: 10% → 10,000 * 10% = 1,000 tokens unlocked immediately

• Cliff: 0 months

• Vesting: 6 months

• Remaining tokens after TGE: 10,000 - 1,000 = 9,000 tokens

• Monthly release: 9,000 / 6 = 1,500 tokens per month

✅ Distribution Schedule:

• Month 0 (TGE): 1,000 tokens

• Months 1-6: 1,500 tokens per month

Conclusion:

• Early stages (Stage 1) have longer lock-up periods and more restrictions.

• Later stages (Stage 13) release tokens faster, making them more liquid but also more expensive.

• Vesting protects the market from dumps, but it's important to track major unlock events.
