    How to use this calculator

    1. 01Enter your project name, token symbol, total supply and planned TGE date.
    2. 02Pick a preset or edit the allocation table: set each category's share, TGE unlock, cliff, vesting length and release frequency.
    3. 03Make sure allocations add up to exactly 100% โ€” results appear as soon as they do.
    4. 04Review the charts, KPI tiles and health check to spot heavy unlock months or concentrated insider supply.
    5. 05Copy a share link, export the CSV, PNG or PDF, or submit your pitch to Redline Lab with the model attached.

    Token vesting explained

    TGE unlock

    The token generation event (TGE) is the moment tokens are first created and become transferable. The TGE unlock is the share of an allocation that is available immediately, before any cliff or vesting applies.

    Cliffs

    A cliff is a waiting period during which no further tokens release. Cliffs are common for team, investor and advisor allocations so that long-term contributors stay aligned after launch.

    Linear vesting

    After the cliff, the remaining tokens release in equal portions over the vesting duration โ€” monthly, quarterly or continuously. Longer vesting spreads supply more gradually.

    Circulating supply vs FDV

    Circulating supply is the number of tokens that are unlocked and tradable. Market cap uses circulating supply, while fully diluted valuation (FDV) multiplies the price by the total supply, including tokens still locked.

    Why unlock events matter

    An unlock event is a month in which a large amount of supply becomes tradable at once. Large unlocks can increase available supply quickly, so many projects plan them carefully and communicate them in advance.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    A token vesting schedule is the timetable that controls when each group's tokens become unlocked and transferable. It usually combines a TGE unlock, a cliff and a vesting period for each allocation, such as team, investors or the community.

    A 12-month cliff followed by 36 to 48 months of vesting is a commonly observed structure for team tokens. These ranges reflect market practice, not a recommendation, and the right structure depends on each project.

    Many 2026 token launches have between 5% and 15% of total supply circulating at TGE. A very low float can make early trading thin, while a very high float can add early sell pressure, so projects weigh both.

    Market cap is the token price multiplied by circulating supply, while fully diluted valuation (FDV) is the price multiplied by total supply. The gap between them shows how much supply is still locked and may enter circulation later.

    Token unlocks increase the supply that can be traded, which can add sell pressure if demand does not keep pace. The effect varies by project, so this calculator highlights large unlock months for planning rather than predicting price.
