According to Odaily, Solana's ecosystem liquidity protocol, Meteora, has announced its MET token economics, with 48% of the total supply slated for circulation at the TGE. Meteora plans to allocate 20% of tokens to Mercurial stakers, 15% to Meteora users (via the LP incentive program), 3% to the Launchpads and Launchpool ecosystem, 2% to off-chain contributors, 3% to the Jupiter staking incentive program, 3% to centralized exchanges and market makers, and 2% to M3M3 stakers. Of the remaining tokens, 18% will be allocated to the team, with a six-year linear vesting period, and 34% will be allocated to the Meteora Reserve, also with a six-year linear vesting period.
Meteora has launched the Liquidity Distributor, which distributes airdrops in the form of liquidity positions, rather than traditional direct airdrop claims. Users can earn trading fee income without having to sell tokens, "selling" the airdrop through a large-scale liquidity pool. Of the 48% circulating supply during the TGE, 10% will be distributed through the Liquidity Distributor, and users can choose to participate during the TGE. This mechanism allows Meteora to launch MET liquidity without requiring the team to contribute tokens, while allowing the community to provide liquidity and earn trading fee income.
