# Total Supply & Distribution Strategy

Lia Coin (LIA), serving as the primary currency within the LiaWorld and LiaChain ecosystems, has a limited total supply of 230 million units. This limitation is part of a strategy to preserve and enhance the token’s value. Below is the detailed distribution plan for LIA and the impact of each phase on the ecosystem:

## **Pre-Sale and ICO (10% - 23 million)**

* To be offered to early investors, forming the project’s initial capital.
* The pricing strategy will set the token’s initial value.
* There may be a lock-up period for tokens acquired during the pre-sale.

## **Team and Founders (15% - 34.5 million)**

* Allocated for the team and founders behind the project.
* Long-term lock-up period (e.g., released biannually over 4 years).
* Demonstrates the team members’ commitment to the project and their long-term goals.

## **Staking Rewards (25% - 57.5 million)**

* Awarded to users who lock their tokens to ensure network security.
* The Annual Percentage Yield (APY) should be incentivizing for staking.
* Staking pools and delegation options may be offered.

## **Reserve and Insurance Fund (10% - 23 million)**

* Set aside for unforeseen circumstances and future opportunities.
* Can be utilized during liquidity crises or market fluctuations.
* A transparent management plan should be in place to enhance investor confidence.

## **Marketing and Business Development (20% - 46 million)**

* To be used to increase the project’s visibility and awareness in the marketplace.
* Provides a budget for partnerships, sponsorships, and community events.
* Campaigns can be organized to attract new users and investors.

## **Community and Partnerships (20% - 46 million)**

* To be used to grow the community and encourage user engagement.
* Community events such as airdrops, contests, and rewards can be organized.
* Allocated for strategic partnerships and collaborations.

This distribution strategy supports Lia Coin’s circulation and usage within the ecosystem while maintaining the project’s financial health and sustainability. Each distribution phase is designed to serve the project’s long-term goals and community needs.
