# $BK Tokenomics

#### **Token Allocation and Distribution**

**5% to Liquidity Mining**\
BK8.io will allocate 5% of its supply to Liquidity Mining incentives to establish initial on-chain liquidity for its token. We will be using a % of our revenues accumulated during Season 1 to also seed the BK-USDC, BK-USDT, and BK-ETH liquidity pools, which will go live upon TGE.

***

**10% to Season 1 Airdrop**\
The first airdrop is designed to reward early adopters who actively engaged with BK8.io during the first season. These tokens will be distributed at TGE.

***

**20% to future Season Airdrops**\
To ensure that the tokenomics are sustainable, we will be reserving a part of the token supply for future season airdrops.

***

**30% to Team**\
A total of 30% of the token supply is allocated to the team and early contributors, including key supporters who played a crucial role in BK8.io’s development and expansion. These tokens will be subject to a 1 year cliff period, followed by a 36-month linear vesting schedule.

***

**35% to Treasury**\
To incentivize continued innovation and platform growth, 35% of the total token supply will be reserved for future use. The BK8.io team will notify the community when a significant portion of these treasury's tokens are used - either for more airdrops, partnerships, market making agreements, or exchange listings.

***

#### **Token Supply & Circulation**

The initial circulating supply is estimated to be **150,000,000 BK8 tokens (Season 1 Airdrop and Liquidity Mining portions)**. Additional tokens will enter circulation over time through other airdrops, and gradual unlocks for team members and contributors.

The **maximum supply of BK8 tokens is set at 1,000,000,000**, decreasing over time with each buyback and burn event.
