Reserve Rights tokenomics

RSR supply

Current circulating supply: 17,507,052,569 RSR
(last updated 2022-05-15)

Reserve Rights (RSR) has a fixed total supply of 100 billion tokens, out of which there are currently 17.5b in circulation. The remaining 82.5b RSR tokens are locked. Out of these, 49.4b tokens belong to the Slow Wallet, 16.0b to seed investors and strategic partners and 17.1b to team members and advisors.

The Slow Wallet is a locked wallet controlled by the Reserve project, used to fund RToken adoption initiatives like listings, partnerships, marketing, etc. It's under the discretionary control of the Reserve team. However, it has a hard-coded 4-week delay after initiating each withdrawal transaction on the blockchain. Upon initiating a withdrawal transaction, the team announces the purpose of the withdrawal either through a public on-chain message or on social media. If RSR holders do not agree with the purpose of the withdrawal, they are able to sell their RSR in the 4-week period before the project is able to sell what they have withdrawn. The team can only access these withdrawn tokens after those 4 weeks.

The 33.0b tokens that are not part of the Slow Wallet (owned by seed investors, strategic partners, team members & advisors) are currently locked and will be progressively unlocked through one of the two unlocking options that were given to each locked RSR holder. More information about these unlocking options can be found below.

Reserve Rights release schedule

As announced in our 2021 year-end update, all locked RSR holders received two options for unlocking their RSR. Initially there was only one option, but after the Reserve community expressed concerns about the particular unlocking schedule, we started thinking about ways for how we could improve it - which led to the new option.

Since the original schedule was contractually agreed on, we couldn't simply change it. Instead, we designed a new unlocking option and gave each locked RSR holder the choice between that new option or the original unlocking schedule.

There’s a lot of relevant background info that we’d love for you to know about, so we recommend watching the video below where Reserve CEO Nevin Freeman goes into all the details:

The summary below shows the details of each unlocking schedule, as well as an estimation of what % of locked RSR holders chose each option.
