QFI Tokenomics

Executive Overview

QFI is the native asset of Quantix Finance, a structured on-chain credit protocol designed to facilitate capital allocation across digital asset markets.

The token model was originally established in 2023 and has been maintained with a focus on supply discipline, capital alignment, and controlled market participation.

The design avoids inflationary mechanics and short-term incentive structures. Instead, QFI follows a deterministic issuance schedule, where circulating supply increases in line with:

  • Protocol growth

  • Liquidity requirements

  • Ecosystem expansion

This approach ensures that token distribution remains predictable, transparent, and non-disruptive to market structure.

Supply

  • Total Supply: 10,000,000 QFI

  • Supply Type: Fixed (non-inflationary)

  • Additional Minting: None

All tokens are pre-allocated and distributed according to predefined categories and release schedules.

Allocation Framework

The QFI supply is allocated across five primary categories:

Category
Allocation
%

Foundation / Protocol Reserve

5,000,000

50%

Orderbook Management & Liquidity

1,000,000

10%

Marketing

1,000,000

10%

Strategic Investments

2,000,000

20%

Team & Advisors

1,000,000

10%

Each allocation is structured to support a specific function within the protocol while maintaining balanced distribution and minimized concentration risk.

Circulating Supply at Launch

  • Initial Circulating Supply: 1,000,000 QFI (10%)

Circulating supply at TGE is intentionally limited and introduced through a controlled distribution mechanism.

Allocation is split between:

  • Existing ecosystem participants, ensuring continuity and alignment

  • Exchange liquidity provisioning, enabling functional trading environments

No tokens are released via uncontrolled emissions, public farming, or unstructured distribution.

This ensures:

  • Stable initial market conditions

  • Controlled price discovery

  • Absence of immediate supply overhang

Token Generation Event (TGE)

At TGE, a limited portion of supply is unlocked to initialize liquidity:

  • Total Unlocked: 1,000,000 QFI

Breakdown:

  • 500,000 QFI — Foundation / Protocol Reserve

  • 500,000 QFI — Orderbook Management & Liquidity

This release is designed to establish baseline liquidity without introducing excess float into the market.

Vesting & Distribution Schedule

  • Foundation: 1,500,000 (250,000/month)

Emission Characteristics

QFI emissions follow a fully predefined schedule, with no discretionary or variable token issuance.

Key characteristics:

  • Linear distribution across defined timeframes

  • No inflationary rewards or farming emissions

  • No early unlock mechanisms

  • No hidden allocations or discretionary releases

This ensures:

  • Predictable supply growth

  • Reduced volatility from unlock events

  • Transparency for market participants

Market Structure & Liquidity Design

Liquidity provisioning is handled through a dedicated allocation, ensuring that:

  • Orderbooks remain sufficiently deep across venues

  • Spreads remain competitive

  • Market impact from trading activity is minimized

Distribution into the market is managed to avoid:

  • Sudden liquidity shocks

  • Concentrated sell-side pressure

  • Dislocation between circulating and available float

This structure is aligned with institutional liquidity standards, rather than retail-driven market formation.

Alignment & Supply Discipline

All major stakeholder groups are subject to structured constraints:

  • Team: 24-month lock, no early access

  • Investors: Delayed unlock + staged vesting

  • Foundation: Controlled, programmatic deployment

  • Marketing & Liquidity: Usage-based distribution

This ensures that:

  • No participant group has disproportionate early access to liquidity

  • Supply expansion is aligned with real protocol activity

  • Long-term incentives are preserved across all stakeholders

Wallet Transparency

All primary allocations are publicly verifiable:
