Ai18+ token serves as the utility token within the Modeland.ai ecosystem, facilitating secure, transparent, and decentralized transactions for creators and users. By leveraging blockchain technology, Ai18+ enables a fair and scalable economy tailored to content creation platforms, supporting a censorship-resistant, private and profitable environment.
Ai18+ token is released daily in 7 increasing cycles while the new tokens’ supply is halved in every cycle, favoring early adopters and ensuring its long-term value growth.
Genesis Cycle
The Genesis cycle marks the initial release of Ai18+ tokens and takes place at the project’s launch. Its token allocation is as follows:
The initial (presale) investors participate in 2 presale rounds. The first round took place exclusively among the members of the Institute of Digital Finance (see section “Team and Partners” below). The first round has been concluded while the second round is in progress and includes F&F members as well. The maximum number of tokens to be sold during the 2 rounds amounts to 26 million. As of today (December 8, 2024), a total amount of $1,000,000 has been raised.
An additional amount of 26 million tokens will be devoted to the exchanges, liquidity pools and the professional market maker. The developers and the founding team will be allocated 32 million tokens i.e. 32% of the Genesis Cycle tokens. This is only 16.9% (32M/188.9M) of the circulating tokens in 3.65 years (cycle 2) and 7.2% of the tokens that will ever be produced. 45.9% of the total tokens will be produced within the initial 3.65-year period.
Finally, 16 million tokens i.e. 16% of the Genesis cycle will be held for the potential participation of a Strategic Investor who will be expected to have significant experience in the sector.
The total supply is capped at 411.1 million ai18+ tokens and will be released over 7 increasing cycles. During the first cycle, 100,103 tokens will be released on a daily basis, rewarding early adopters. Each subsequent cycle halves the daily token release (halving), with only 1,564 tokens distributed daily in the final (7th) cycle.
Vesting Schedule
All tokens allocated during the Genesis phase, excluding those to be allocated to the Exchanges, Liquidity Pool and Market Maker are subject to a 8% monthly vesting schedule.
Token Distribution
The daily allocation of the tokens will be taking place as follows:
Airdrops: 72% of daily token emissions, incentivizing user interaction and platform engagement. They will be released in the form of credits and will be converted to tokens only when value is created i.e. when they are spent in the platform for content creation during a 44 hour period. Credits which are not spent will be burned.
Platform Development and Operations: 16% of daily token emissions, ensuring ongoing infrastructure improvements, feature development, and operational expenses.
Marketing and Promotions: 8% of daily token emissions, aimed at expanding platform visibility, attracting new users and onboarding creators.
Social Responsibility: 4% of daily token emissions, dedicated to combating human exploitation, human king, and supporting aligned nonprofit organizations.
Transaction fees
Ai18+ sustains platform growth through transaction fees, including a 0% buy fee and a 2% sell fee (1% will be added to liquidity and 1% for marketing). These fees support liquidity, marketing, operations and continuous ecosystem development, creating a sustainable economic structure that benefits both creators and users.
Token Demand Drivers
The success of the project and token hinges on a central component: attracting and maintaining a large base of active users.
Ai18+ serves as the utility token in the platform, facilitating transactions and rewards throughout the ecosystem. It plays a key role in various platform activities, ensuring both creators and users benefit from its distribution. It enables various functionalities within the platform’s ecosystem as follows:
