What is token vesting? How does it affect project tokenomics?

*FULL TOKENOMICS COURSE NOW OPEN!! *

---

Vesting schedules are a key component of how token sales are structured.

While vesting terms are found in lots of familiar contracts outside of blockchain (employment contracts, retirement contributions, startup bonuses, etc.) they actually serve a very DIFFERENT role in the design of a blockchain token economy.

Blockchain founders who fail to understand these differences risk creating some really BAD vesting choices that create destabilising risks for their project!

Watch this video to make sure you don't make these errors yourself (and to stay clear of projects that do!)

Hi sir, thank you for your excellent and original content.

I am interested in finding additional resources to learn about vesting and determining the appropriate number of tokens to release for a token (from a token engineering perspective). Despite my research efforts, I have not been able to locate a course or detailed advanced explanation on this topic.
Do you have any suggestion for sources of learning about this matter? (except analyzing the real projects vesting)

Hey Roderick, Great content, man!

I have a question regarding your token distribution strategy. I noticed that in most of your designed projects and videos, you allocate approximately 5% of the total tokens to liquidity, and this 5% is often vested as well. In a hypothetical situation where stakers decide to sell all their tokens immediately after the release at TGE (Token Generation Event), how do you address the potential price impact caused by such a significant increase in supply, especially considering the shallow market depth?

Which programm did you use for the vesting graphs?
