# 5.2. Supply & Distribution

The total maximum supply of $DGRAM is set at 10,000,000,000 tokens, with an initial Total Supply at Token&#x20;Generation Event TGE of 5,750,000,000 tokens (57.5%). $DGRAM operates on the Avalanche blockchain and&#x20;follows the ARC-20 token standard.

Although 57.5% of the tokens will be minted at TGE, a substantial portion of this supply is subject to lockups and&#x20;vesting schedules. This structured release approach results in a significantly lower initial circulating supply,&#x20;fostering long-term alignment among contributors and stakeholders to promote the project’s success.

A large majority of the allocation (50%) is reserved for Full Core Operators, who serve as the backbone of the&#x20;Datagram network. These participants facilitate decentralized traffic routing, data processing, and&#x20;communication services. In addition, 26% of the supply is allocated toward liquidity (5%), airdrop (5%) and ecosystem&#x20;growth initiatives (16%). 22.5% of the supply is distributed to Team (10%), Investors (10%), and Advisors (2.5%), as&#x20;well as 1.5% to KOLs.
