# Token Allocation Structure

PIJS token allocation is designed to prioritize network security and public participation while reserving sufficient resources for long-term ecosystem development.

The total supply is allocated as follows:

* 51% — Public Chain Staking Mining Pool\
  Reserved exclusively for Hardware Operator staking rewards and distributed through protocol-defined emission rules.
* 27% — Ecosystem Development\
  Allocated for application development, partnerships, grants, and ecosystem incentives. Released via a three-year linear vesting schedule to prevent early concentration.
* 10% — Swap & Liquidity Infrastructure\
  Dedicated to liquidity provisioning, decentralized exchange support, and market infrastructure required for healthy token circulation.
* 9% — Foundation Allocation\
  Used for governance operations, ecosystem support, and strategic initiatives. Managed under strict transparency principles.
* 3% — Technical Development\
  Allocated to core protocol research and engineering, released through a three-year linear vesting schedule.<br>

This structure reflects PIJSChain’s emphasis on decentralization and long-term viability. More than half of the total supply is committed to securing the public chain through staking, reinforcing the central role of Hardware Operators in network stability.
