DeepBook Airdrop Claim Date Set for November 13

No Lockup Period for Airdrop Tokens

Initially, DeepBook planned a one-year lockup period on the airdrop tokens, which would have restricted immediate use. However, in a recent update, the platform announced the removal of this lockup. Now, participants can access and use their DEEP tokens immediately after claiming them. 

Notably, the DEEP token powers the DeepBook ecosystem on the Sui blockchain, providing several key functions. Primarily, it’s used to pay for transaction fees on the platform. Additionally, DEEP tokens are crucial for governance, enabling holders to vote on important decisions such as fee structures and liquidity policies. The tokens also incentivize market makers who supply liquidity, ensuring there is always ample liquidity for users to trade smoothly.

DeepBook has a total supply of 10 billion DEEP tokens, which will be distributed over seven years to maintain a controlled release. This gradual distribution helps control inflation and supports the long-term value of the token. 

In terms of allocation, DeepBook reserves 61.57% of the DEEP tokens for ecosystem development, supporting liquidity incentives and platform growth. It allocates another 28.43% to core contributors and developers, rewarding those who helped build and expand DeepBook. The remaining 10% goes toward community distribution through initiatives like the airdrop.
