DERC Tokenomics
DeRace tokens have no max supply set, which means that the project is able to generate as many tokens as needed. However, the initial supply of DERC is 120 million.
In 2021, an initial dex offering (IDO) was held, during which 6% of the total DERC supply was sold. Though before the IDO, there was also a private token sale held. During the sale, the DERC price was $0.05. At that time, 28% of the total supply was sold to early investors.
The remaining supply was distributed between the team and advisors, as well as set aside for marketing purposes, liquidity incentives, and the development of the DeRace crypto project.
