Key Details of the JUP Token Launch

  1. Total Token Supply: Jupiter plans to mint a total of 10 billion JUP tokens.
  2. Distribution Strategy: These tokens will be evenly distributed across two cold wallets — 50% for the community and 50% for the team.
  3. Team Wallet Allocation: 10% of the team’s tokens will be used for liquidity provision.
  4. Community Wallet Allocation: 15% will be allocated for the initial airdrop and to meet immediate community demands.
  5. Liquidity Provision (LP) Account: 5% of tokens will be utilized for the initial token launch pool. The remaining allocation is undecided, with a potential additional 1%-2% becoming liquid on day one.

In total, approximately 15%-17.5% of JUP tokens are expected to enter market circulation on the launch day, with 7.5%-10% in hot wallets and the rest in cold storage.

JUP Token’s Pre-Launch Valuation

Currently, JUP tokens are not officially trading, but Aevo, an on-chain options trading platform, has launched JUP futures. The price is temporarily reported at $0.76, with a 24-hour trading volume of around $57,000 and an open interest of $1.422 million. If this valuation holds true, the airdrop could be worth close to $500 million, making it one of the largest in history and the biggest on the Solana chain.
