This means that tokens will begin to unlock in year 2 and will be fully distributed by year 5. Upon passage, 10% of this allocation, up to 4.52 billion, will be burned and permanently removed from the token supply.

WLFI said that the proposal aims to establish a “structured vesting framework” and ensure the “ecosystem’s commitment to long-term governance and market supply.” Full story available on Benzinga.com
