Artela announces token economy model: 62% allocated to the community

On January 10, the L1 network Artela Network, a fully on-chain artificial intelligence agent, released its token economic model aimed at supporting large-scale applications of on-chain AI agents. The ART token serves as Artela's native asset and undertakes core functions such as staking, paying Gas fees, governance rights and ecosystem liquidity. It has become key to network security, governance and economic operation.

The ART token adopts an inflation model with an initial annual inflation rate of 8%, decreasing by 1% each year until it reaches a long-term issuance rate of 0%. This ensures controlled supply growth and supports long-term value stability.

The total supply of ART is one billion tokens. Distribution includes: community (62%) - comprising airdrops (4.5%), network staking (28.5%), ecological development (23%); team members (15%); investors (18%) and early contributors(5%). Tokens will be gradually released according to a clear unlocking plan to support sustainable ecosystem development.
