Genesis & Tokenomics.
Approved planning baseline for QEN maximum supply and allocations. Parameters are not deployed to the existing testnet, and no token offering is open.
Genesis allocation — total 100%
| Category | Share | QEN |
|---|---|---|
| Founder / Core Development | 15% | 150,000,000 |
| Development / Operations Treasury | 10% | 100,000,000 |
| PoS + PoAC + Solver Rewards | 30% | 300,000,000 |
| Genesis Pioneer / Community | 10% | 100,000,000 |
| Builders / Ecosystem Grants | 10% | 100,000,000 |

| Genesis Public Bootstrap | 5% | 50,000,000 |

Founder vesting
150M QEN is allocated to a publicly verifiable vesting contract. Months 0–12: zero transferable unlock. Months 13–48: 36 equal scheduled tranches (about 4,166,666.67 QEN each before any rounding handled by the final contract). Final contract timing and independent audit are required before Genesis.
Vesting is not an operating-expense wallet; Treasury accounting remains separate.
Long-term reward reserve
300M QEN is preallocated rather than minted without limit. Indicative sub-allocations: PoS 50%, PoAC 25%, Solver/Prover 15%, adaptive security 10%. Reward emission schedule, slashing and anti-wash eligibility require review.
Initial price discovery — not active
A fixed 50M QEN Bootstrap allocation and a public settlement mechanism are planned. The proposed 5M USDT target is a financing scenario, not a guaranteed QEN price or valuation. Any uniform-price auction needs explicit bidding, clearing, undersubscription/oversubscription, refunds, vesting and jurisdiction rules; a simple total-USDT / QEN display is only an indicative average.
Initial liquidity must pair a portion of available stablecoin settlement with distinct QEN from the separate Protocol-Owned Liquidity allocation at a disclosed clearing price. LP assets stay segregated from founder and Operations Treasury funds.
Genesis Support is separate: the 5M USDT-equivalent Support planning goal is voluntary operating support and does not set QEN price, buy QEN or increase Pioneer weight.
