# Tokenomics

Kura distributes emissions through a vote-directed gauge system, enabling token holders to influence where rewards are allocated.

## Breakdown

* **Initial Supply** : 3M
  * Released and distributed according to the Initial Token Supply & Distribution.
* **Max Supply** : 10M
  * Released gradually over 7 years as defined in Emission Mechanics.
    * Emissions decrease slightly with each epoch, gradually approaching zero over time.
* **Total Token Supply & Distribution**

* All allocations are in xKURA, except Liquidity, Triggered Release, and Reserves.
* Team & Treasury have a 3-month lockup and 4-year vesting.

## Triggered Release

* A fixed amount of KURA is pre-supplied to the SEI-KURA pool. Upon reaching a predefined exchange rate, the tokens are converted to SEI, and the corresponding liquidity is removed.
* Accordingly, distribution occurs only upon reaching specific milestones.

## Emission Mechanics

* **Epoch Timing** : New emission cycles begin every Thursday at 15:00 UTC
* **Vote-Based Allocation** : Emissions are directed by xKURA voters
* **Decay Schedule** : Emission rate decreases gradually over time to manage supply inflation
* **Allocation** : 100% of new emissions are allocated to liquidity providers
* **Emission Variability** : Emissions may vary by ±20% per epoch, depending on market dynamics.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://kuraswap.gitbook.io/docs/tokenomics.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
