Layer-1 blockchain Monad detailed the initial distribution of its native token, MON, as it prepares for the mainnet introduction on Nov. 24, a key milestone for the project that’s positioning itself as a high-performance, Ethereum-compatible network.
The Monad Foundation said Monday that a public sale of 7.5% of the initial supply of the token will begin on Coinbase’s Token Sales platform on Nov. 17. The tokens will be priced at $0.025 each. An airdrop of 3.3% will kick off seven days later.
The sale is intended to distribute MON more broadly ahead of the network’s activation, with the foundation emphasizing that the structure of its tokenomics is designed to encourage long-term participation rather than short-term speculation.
In total, 38.5% of the initial supply will be allocated toward ecosystem development, 27% to the Monad team, 19.7% to investors, 7.5% to the public sale, 4% to the treasury and 3.3% to an airdrop.
“At the launch of Monad Public Mainnet, approximately 10.8B MON tokens (10.8%) are expected to be unlocked and in public circulation, owing to distribution via the Monad public sale and the MON Airdrop,” the team wrote in a blog post.
The foundation framed the release as the start of a gradual decentralization process, with additional supply entering circulation over time as the network grows. The majority of tokens will remain locked in the early months, with ecosystem and team allocations subject to vesting schedules to align long-term incentives.
The release of MON comes as the crypto ecosystem has long awaited this airdrop, alongside Monad’s effort to try to redefine the design of layer-1 blockchains. The team describes Monad as a “high-performance, EVM-compatible” network capable of processing transactions in parallel without sacrificing decentralization or security, which it hopes can scale Ethereum’s virtual machine to its next stage of growth.
