## LQ Token Vesting

\
There are two allocations which receive LQ distributions according to a linear vesting schedule: \
\
1\. Liqwid core team, advisors and founders allocation (18.9%)\
2\. Liqwid Labs seed round investors, a subset of the Core Team, Founders, Advisors allocation\
&#x20;(6.1%)\
\
1\. Liqwid core team, advisors and founders allocation of LQ tokens is distributed based on a 24 month linear vesting schedule that started February 2023 at the time of the Liqwid v1 mainnet launch and ended February 2025. Equal LQ amounts were vested monthly for the full 24 month vesting period.\
\
2\. Liqwid seed round investors allocation of LQ tokens is distributed based on the same 24 month linear vesting schedule as the core team but with the addition of a 4 month cliff that started February 2023 at the time of Liqwid v1 mainnet launch. Following the end of the 4 month cliff Liqwid seed round investors received their first distribution in June 2023 and will receive their final vest according to the 24 month linear vesting schedule in June 2025.
