The supply structure is designed to prioritize public mining while reserving a defined portion for ecosystem development, infrastructure, operational sustainability, and long-term network growth. Midas places significant emphasis on community participation. Accordingly, 60% of the total token supply is allocated to public mining, making miners the largest distribution group within the Midas ecosystem. The remaining 40% is distributed across specific development and operational categories to support the project's infrastructure, security, liquidity, and future expansion. ### Total Supply
The maximum supply of MID is fixed at 5 billion tokens. The allocation framework defines how this supply is intended to be distributed across mining and ecosystem-related categories. | Parameter | Allocation | | ----------------------------- | ----------------- | | Token Name | Midas | | Token Symbol | MID | | Maximum Supply | 5,000,000,000 MID | | Public Mining | 3,000,000,000 MID | | Ecosystem & Other Allocations | 2,000,000,000 MID | | Mining Allocation | 60% | | Other Allocations | 40% | ### Token Distribution

Token Distribution Chart

#### 1. Public Mining – 60% **Allocation: 3,000,000,000 MID** Public mining represents the primary distribution mechanism of Midas. This allocation is reserved for eligible participants who accumulate mining points through the Midas application. The mining allocation is intended to distribute the majority of MID directly to the community through the predefined mining mechanism and halving schedule. Eligible mining balances will undergo the official verification and migration process before being issued as on-chain tokens. *** #### 2. Ecosystem & Community – 10% **Allocation: 500,000,000 MID** Reserved for ecosystem expansion and community-driven development. This allocation may support: * Community growth initiatives. * Ecosystem participation rewards. * Developer and contributor grants. * Community-led development initiatives. * Future ecosystem programs. Distribution will follow defined programs and allocation requirements. *** #### 3. Development & Technology – 8% **Allocation: 400,000,000 MID** Reserved for the continued development and maintenance of Midas infrastructure. This allocation may support: * Ethereum-based Layer-2 infrastructure development. * Smart contract development and upgrades. * Wallet and application development. * Blockchain infrastructure and technical operations. * Developer resources and engineering requirements. *** #### 4. Treasury & Operations – 7% **Allocation: 350,000,000 MID** Reserved for long-term project sustainability and operational requirements. The treasury allocation may support infrastructure expenditure, operational requirements, strategic development initiatives, and unforeseen technical requirements. Treasury utilization should follow defined authorization and transparency procedures. *** #### 5. Liquidity Provision – 5% **Allocation: 250,000,000 MID** Reserved for establishing and maintaining liquidity across supported trading environments. This allocation is intended to support: * Initial liquidity provisioning. * Decentralized exchange liquidity. * Market liquidity management. * Supported exchange integrations. The actual deployment of liquidity will depend on network readiness and available trading infrastructure. *** #### 6. Team & Contributors – 5% **Allocation: 250,000,000 MID** Reserved for the founding team, core developers, and long-term contributors responsible for building and maintaining the Midas ecosystem. This allocation is intended to recognize continued technical contributions and long-term project commitments. A proposed vesting structure will apply to this allocation to prevent immediate distribution and align contributor incentives with the project's long-term development. *** #### 7. Strategic Partnerships – 3% **Allocation: 150,000,000 MID** Reserved for strategic collaborations that may contribute to the growth and adoption of Midas. This allocation may support: * Technical partnerships. * Blockchain infrastructure integrations. * Ecosystem collaborations. * Strategic development initiatives. * Institutional and industry partnerships. Distribution will depend on the objectives and terms of individual partnerships. *** #### 8. Security & Audits – 2% **Allocation: 100,000,000 MID** Reserved for maintaining the security and reliability of the Midas infrastructure. This allocation may support: * Smart contract security audits. * Independent security assessments. * Vulnerability testing. * Bug bounty programs. * Infrastructure security improvements. Security will remain an ongoing requirement throughout the development and operation of the Midas network. ### Distribution Principles Midas follows several principles when structuring its token distribution: **Community Priority:** The majority of the maximum supply is reserved for public mining, prioritizing community participation. **Controlled Allocation:** Every non-mining allocation has a defined purpose and a maximum supply limit. **Long-Term Development:** Dedicated allocations support the infrastructure, security, and operational requirements of the ecosystem. **Responsible Distribution:** Team, treasury, partnership, and liquidity allocations should be distributed according to defined release and utilization policies. ### Supply Management The maximum supply of 5 billion MID represents the upper limit of the token economy. Midas intends to maintain a controlled issuance structure in which public mining distribution follows the predefined mining and halving mechanisms. Non-mining allocations will be subject to their respective distribution schedules and operational requirements. The project aims to maintain transparency regarding token issuance, allocation utilization, and on-chain distribution as the network progresses toward Open Mainnet. **Midas prioritizes community distribution while maintaining the resources necessary to build, secure, and sustain its blockchain ecosystem.**
