# Tokenomics

### Basic Tokenomics 

Atlas DEX has a **maximum supply of 250 million $ATS tokens**. 

### Vesting Schedules

These allocations are made to ensure the long-term growth and development of Atlas DEX.

### **Performance-Based Vesting Schedule for Private Investors**

Performance-Based Vesting is a novel kind of vesting model, designed to improve alignment between project performance and token unlocks.

### More Tokenomics Details

#### Want more information on the locking and vesting schedules for the $ATS tokens?

* **Public Sale** tokens were for our Initial Dex Offering (IDO) on Solstarter and Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) on Huobi, where 2.675 million $ATS tokens were sold. The token price for public sale and private investors was the same, at $0.14.
* **Community Incentives** tokens are used to promote and incentivise users to actively participate on the Atlas DEX platform. Tokens will be released linearly for 1 year, from the time users receive them.
* **Treasury Reserves** will remain locked and uncirculated.
* **Liquidity and Platform Incentives** tokens which are used to incentivise and promote liquidity of $ATS.

#### What about the Team, Advisors and Private Investors?

* Tokens allocated for the **Team and Advisors** would be locked for 12 months from the start of our IDO and subsequently released linearly for 2.5 years. This ensures that our team remains aligned to the long-term development and growth of Atlas DEX.
* **Private Investors'** vesting schedule includes Performance-Based Vesting.&#x20;
  * This means their tokens are unlocked upon the project reaching a certain milestone (i.e. reaching $3bn in total swap volumes).
  * This encourages Private Investors to further support our growth by using, referring and providing feedback on the Atlas DEX platform.
