# Token Distribution

### **What is the token distribution?**

The distribution breakdown is designed to facilitate the most decentralized protocol and make sure power doesn’t reside in the hands of a few.

### **How long is the vesting schedule?**

The vesting schedule is designed so that there is not a giant cliff waiting over user’s heads at a specific point. The tokens allocated to the Founders, Contributors, and Advisors are locked in a smart contract that releases the tokens on a weekly basis over a two year period (100 weeks). The vesting period started with the launch of the Yield Farming mechanism.
