Case Study: Distribution Strategy for 700M $JUP Tokens

Objective: Minimize sell pressure and support price stability as we distribute 700 million $JUP tokens

Distribution Strategy: Vesting and Penalty Structure

1.6-9 Month Vesting Period
Claim Timing Options and Penalties:

Immediate Claim at Launch 30% penalty on the total allocation, Discouraging dumping right after distribution. Those who claim immediately forfeit a significant portion of their tokens.

Claim After 3 Months 15% penalty
reduces pressure in the short term, incentivizing holders to wait, but allowing some flexibility.

Claim After 6 Months No penalty
Encourages longer holding and stabilizes token supply as it enters the market gradually.

Claim After 9 Months Bonus from the penalty pool
Any tokens deducted from earlier claims are pooled and redistributed as a bonus to those who wait until 9 months.J4J to those who didn’t claimed and belive in jupiter long term success

Those who hold longer are rewarded with additional tokens, which community trust and loyalty toward $JUP,
If only 10% of holders claimed immediately (due to the penalty), then roughly 70 million tokens would be released at launch
This much smaller initial release would result in much lower sell pressure, likely keeping the token price stable.

Conclusion
This vesting and penalty structure encourages a balanced, loyal, and engaged community that is invested in Jupiter’s long-term success. Through gradual token release, penalties, and bonuses, we effectively reduce early sell pressure, maintain price stability, and reward those who believe in Jupiter’s future.

Don’t be deliutional ,Let’s be practical here—700 million tokens entering the market at once would be overwhelming. Atm a 15 million sell is causing a $0.10 downward movement, so just imagine the impact of everyone claiming and dumping a huge supply at once. Without some safeguards, early sellers could tank the price, leaving loyal holders as exit liquidity , nobody wants to become a exit liquidity, you can already see people coming in discord , ok you tell me what’s the solutions of this… How you actually preventing people from dumping , don’t say add them to their staking account and promote voting , and after 30 days again we will have a huge sell off, that’s not a solution

And if it is locked for one year
It will still be unlocked and those that want to dump will still dump

Womp womp , you clearly don’t understand the basic
Imagine releasing all the tokens at once, people dumping hard ,leading to a big sell-off, and here we have a phased approach gradually adds tokens to the market. This allows demand to keep up with supply, helping to keep the price stable , It also rewards those who hold on longer, building a community of people who believe in the project’s future.
I can literally say you, there will be system like that
Team is not delutional like some here are

meow summed this up beautifully!

They list JUP cos they want to list it

JUP is building a decentralized centralized exchange
Are they focusing on price of the token ?. No
Focus on building the product

Why buy JUP if there is constant selling pressure from a 6-9 month vest? Better to drop all in one go and let the market decide

Doens’t 50m token distributed after each ASR quarterly don’t create a sell pressure? 50 million tokens are distributed, and so far, they haven’t caused much sell pressure since most end up staked. But with Jupuary around the corner, people are anticipating a possible dip, as some may sell off their rewards. I will call it a “short-term dip” many here might get a bit emotional about it!

Yes you’re right. Airdrop to farmers is different to JUP believers though (stakers)

Yes you certainly have a lot of “belief” in Jup.

That’s why you’re asking for a bonus 700m tokens allocated linearly to stakers to cover the “risk” of holding the token on top of 200m in active staking rewards.

Very risky to hold Jup unless you get 100% APR in a year am I right?

Okay:
This is my approach
If JUPUARY vote pass.
On token release , there will always be a dump when token is released
Because people that got the token will use it for several purpose.
I can’t think of a special way right now regarding TGE
All I know is that , the token will be released one way or the other

Like @meow said : let make everything we do as experiments , if we fail we go again in another way or make the first approach better

Having being the benefactor of the Sanctum airdrop I think this is a good solution but I know that meow does not like games, good suggestion nevertheless
