Vesting & Release Schedule

To ensure a balanced and non-inflationary token distribution, certain allocations are vested over time:

Team & Advisors – 4-year vesting schedule with a 12-month cliff, ensuring gradual token unlocks. Treasury & Community Fund – Released gradually based on governance approvals and funding needs. Liquidity & Staking Rewards – Distributed over 5+ years, ensuring long-term incentives.

7.2 Token Burn Mechanism

BlocNav employs a deflationary model to control supply and increase long-term value by burning a portion of NavTokens through governance participation, premium services, and treasury activities.

Governance Participation Burn: A percentage of NavTokens used in voting and proposals is burned, ensuring decisions have lasting economic impact. Transaction-Based Burning: NavTokens spent on premium mapping services, API access, or enterprise licensing contribute to token burns. Unstaking Penalties: A portion of NavTokens unstaked before maturity may be burned to encourage long-term holding.

By integrating multiple burn triggers, BlocNav ensures token scarcity and long-term economic stability.

7.3 NavToken Staking & Treasury Growth

BlocNav allows users to stake NavTokens ($BNT) only, providing passive rewards while strengthening the platform’s governance and financial sustainability.

  • Users stake NavTokens ($BNT) in the BlocNav Treasury. Staked tokens are locked for a set period, incentivizing long-term commitment.

  • Stakers earn yield in NavTokens, funded through transaction fees, governance fees, and ecosystem revenue.

  • A portion of staking rewards is reinvested into community-backed projects via governance voting.

Benefits of NavToken Staking:

  • Earn Passive Rewards – Users receive additional NavTokens as staking incentives.

  • Strengthen Governance – Staked tokens boost voting power, allowing higher-tier governance participation.

  • Encourage Long-Term Holding – Locked staking periods prevent excessive token circulation, reducing volatility.

  • Treasury Growth & Sustainability – A portion of staking yield is allocated to the BlocNav ecosystem, ensuring funding for mapping incentives and governance-backed projects.
