FOGO's tokenomics design is quite meticulous, with the entire distribution plan centered around the two core principles of decentralization and long-term incentives.



Let's first look at the funding side. The project has completed two rounds of financing, raising $8 million in the first round with a valuation of $100 million; raising $1.25 million in the second round with a valuation of $200 million, totaling approximately 3,200 participants. The financing proceeds are combined with community airdrops, with community ownership accounting for 15.25%.

In the token distribution structure, the core contributors hold the majority—34% of the supply is allocated to the development and operations team, with a four-year unlock starting from September 26, 2025, with a 12-month transition period reserved in between. The Foundation receives 27.58%, with funds used for grants, incentives, and ecosystem project support; this portion of tokens has been fully unlocked.

The Echo financing portion is allocated 9.25%, also unlocking over four years starting from September 26, 2025, with a 12-month lock-up period as usual. Institutional investors are allocated 8.77%, using the same unlocking mechanism. Advisors receive 7% of the tokens. Liquidity reserves for launch are set at 5.4%, which has been fully unlocked to support initial trading pair depth.

For community incentives, on the mainnet launch on January 13, 1.5% will be directly distributed to reward early participants, with the remaining 4.5% reserved for future ongoing promotion. Notably, the community airdrop portion (6%) of tokens has been fully unlocked. Additionally, the amount of tokens burned is 2%.

The entire structure is cleverly designed to balance the long-term commitment of the founding team with immediate rewards for early community members, using tiered unlocking mechanisms to prevent dumping risks while ensuring continuous funding for ecosystem development.

The team 34% really dares to hold, and the unlock won't start until 2026. This move is really old school.

The team has 34% locked for 4 years. The pace is okay; it's not likely to dump immediately after launch.

34% to the team? That's a pretty aggressive ratio. Hopefully, it can be locked in properly and not wasted.
