Stable Updates Whitepaper: 82% of STABLE Tokens Locked Until End of 2029 Release

Odaily News: Stable has released an updated whitepaper, with its core design philosophy centered on rebuilding blockchain infrastructure around stablecoins. Unlike traditional public chains that treat stablecoins as application-layer assets, Stable uses USDT as its native gas asset and primary settlement asset, allowing users to complete transactions without holding additional volatile tokens. Additionally, the network supports PayPal-issued PYUSD as a first-tier settlement asset.

In terms of tokenomics, the total supply of STABLE is 100 billion tokens. Of this, approximately 18 billion (18%) entered circulation at token generation, including 10% from the Genesis Distribution and 8% from the Foundation's first-day unlock; the remaining 82 billion (82%) are placed into a consolidated lock-up pool (Universal Lock).

According to the whitepaper, the 82 billion locked tokens will adopt a unified release mechanism, unlocking gradually across 7 phases:

Phase 1: 5% (4.1 billion) released on December 8, 2027

Phase 2: 5% (4.1 billion) released on March 8, 2028

Phase 3: 10% (8.2 billion) released on June 8, 2028

Phase 4: 15% (12.3 billion) released on September 8, 2028

Phase 5: 15% (12.3 billion) released on December 8, 2028

Phase 6: 20% (16.4 billion) released on March 8, 2029

Phase 7: 30% (24.6 billion) released on June 8, 2029

All locked tokens will be unlocked through a daily linear release mechanism, with all tokens expected to fully enter circulation by December 8, 2029 at the latest. In addition, the whitepaper includes a price protection mechanism: if the 30-day volume-weighted average price of the token falls below $0.025 before the designated release date, the corresponding unlock phase may be delayed by up to 9 months.
