Both layers rely on MGO as a universal token for gas fees, validator staking, protocol governance, and sequencer rewards.

To support mainnet participants, Mango Network released its airdrop eligibility checker at checker.mangonet.io. Eligible wallets can confirm token allocations through the official dashboard.

Token Distribution and Vesting Details

Mango Network fixed the total MGO supply at 10 billion tokens. At launch, only 1.59 billion were in circulation. Mango Network allocated 20 % of the total supply to proof-of-stake validator incentives. The project’s foundation received another 20 % of the supply.

In addition, the ecosystem innovation fund received 17 %. Strategic investors and the core team were each allocated 15 %, while 10 % was reserved for airdrop campaigns split between testnet and mainnet participants. Advisors received the remaining 3 %.

Moreover, all allocations are subject to a vesting schedule that spans seven years. Approximately 12 million MGO tokens are scheduled to unlock annually, providing a slow release model that reduces dilution and encourages long-term network participation.
