Sentient, the open-source AGI platform, has finally revealed the details of its tokenomics, and the TGE is expected to launch early this year. After a careful review of the allocation plan, there are indeed some points worth considering.



The most obvious highlight is that the community holds the majority—66% of the supply goes to the community, a rare proportion in projects. Breaking it down further, 44% is allocated for community incentives and airdrops, 19.55% for ecosystem development and R&D, and 2% for public auctions. The team receives 22%, but here’s an interesting point: a 6-year vesting period, which is uncommon in the industry, plus a 1-year lock-up period and a 6-year linear release. The investors’ 12.45% is also notable—no release at TGE, followed by a 1-year lock-up and an additional 4-year linear unlock.

This design has a benefit: the initial circulating supply mainly comes from the community, ecosystem, and public rounds, while tokens held by internal personnel won’t enter the market for a long time. In other words, there’s almost no selling pressure from the team or large capital early on. Coupled with the team’s commitment to a 6-year vesting period, it shows much more sincerity than most projects’ 2 to 4-year plans and demonstrates a long-term development attitude.

Currently, the most concern is the 2% allocated for the public round. The official has confirmed that the community round price will be significantly lower than the investor price. Based on data, the pre-launch FDV is approximately $1.3 billion. According to market forecasts, there’s about a 56% chance that the valuation will surpass $800 million after launch, and roughly a 39% chance it will reach $1 billion.

Honestly, with the AI Agent wave happening now, Sentient’s positioning as an open-source AGI platform still has room for imagination. However, the specific details of the public round have not been released yet. We’ll wait for more complete information before deciding whether to participate.

Six years vesting period is really tough, but this move can indeed alleviate concerns about early selling pressure.

I'm not very convinced by the AGI narrative; it depends on how the ecosystem develops later.

A 66% community share sounds good, but it depends on how much they can actually get.

This price range feels a bit vague; let's wait for the details of the public round.

Locking the team for so long, does that mean they lack confidence? Haha.

The AI boom is indeed hot, but the imagination for open source AGI platforms is actually limited.

I'm just worried it might be another "revolutionary" token that ultimately turns out to be worthless.

Only 2% for the public round, that's really stingy, still needs to be fought for.

66% of the flow going to the community is indeed rare, but honestly, the larger this number gets, the more cautious we should be.

This lock-up design looks very sincere, but in reality, it's just to prevent a dump.

Only 2% for the public round? That means the early selling pressure is quite significant. Let's see how long the community enthusiasm can last.

The team’s 6-year vesting period is indeed novel, but on the other hand, it also means the project needs to survive for 6 years to prove itself.

The 13 billion USD FDV breaking through 8 billion has only a 56% probability, which sounds quite risky... Let's wait for more details before making judgments.

The AI Agent trend is real, but whether Sentient can ride this wave depends on the team's execution. Having just tokenomics design is not enough.

If the 2% public round price is cheaper than that for investors, I've seen this trick before. You need to understand it thoroughly before proceeding.

66% flowing to the community sounds nice, but the initial circulation volume is actually quite large; it depends on how it will be managed later.

The team’s 6-year vesting period is indeed rare, but don’t overthink it; the key is whether the market can hold up after TGE.

A 2% public round is so small that the participation threshold should be quite high, right?

The AI Agent trend is a hot topic, but with so many open-source AGI platforms, why would Sentient be able to break through?

Let’s wait for the details of the public round to come out; don’t rush to go all in.

66% of the flow going to the community is indeed rare, but I am more concerned about when the 2% public round will start and what the price per token will be.

The 6-year vesting period for the team sounds very sincere, but I'm worried they might follow the trend and change the rules later.

Wait and see before the TGE; with information fragmented now, there's no need to rush into the market.

66% to the community, this proportion is truly considerate, but it still depends on actual implementation.

A 6-year vesting period? The team really dares to promise that.

The 2% public round is the key; we'll see the details once they are released.
