Tokenomics: Dual-Token Supply and Distribution
Introduction to XRP Tundra’s Dual-Token Tokenomics
The XRP Tundra ecosystem operates on an innovative dual-token architecture leveraging both the XRP Ledger and Solana blockchain. This approach combines the security and stability of XRPL with the DeFi capabilities and performance of Solana. Central to this architecture are two complementary tokens:
TUNDRA-X: Native to the XRP Ledger with a fixed supply of 200 million tokens
TUNDRA-S: Deployed on Solana with a fixed supply of 100 million tokens
This section outlines the complete tokenomics model for both TUNDRA tokens, explaining how their distribution supports the project’s vision while protecting value for all participants.
Dual Supply Rationale: TUNDRA-X and TUNDRA-S
The differential between TUNDRA-X and TUNDRA-S supply is strategic:
TUNDRA-X (200M): The larger supply on XRPL reflects the broader XRP ecosystem and the primary focus on XRP staking. This ensures sufficient tokens are available to reward the potentially massive user base of XRP holders joining the platform.
TUNDRA-S (100M): The concentrated supply on Solana creates relative scarcity while providing adequate liquidity for DeFi operations and trading functions.
Both tokens exist independently on their respective blockchains, with unique utility optimized for their native environments. While a cross-chain bridge enables movement between ecosystems, each token’s market dynamics will be determined by their specific utility and market forces on their respective blockchains.
TUNDRA-X Distribution: 200M Supply on XRP Ledger
Crypto Presale Allocation: 40% for Early Adopters
80,000,000 TUNDRA-X (40%)
The largest single allocation goes directly to early supporters through the presale. This substantial allocation serves multiple important purposes:
It ensures early adopters receive meaningful ownership in the ecosystem, rewarding those who recognize the project’s potential from the beginning.
The size of this allocation creates strong alignment between early supporters and the project’s long-term success.
By distributing a significant portion of the supply to the community from day one, the project establishes a foundation of decentralized ownership.
XRP Staking Rewards Through the Cryo Vault System
50,000,000 TUNDRA-X (25%)
A quarter of the total supply is dedicated exclusively to rewarding users who stake their XRP in the Cryo Vault system. These tokens are distributed gradually over time according to a predetermined schedule:
Daily emission caps prevent excessive token release, ensuring sustainable distribution over many years.
Longer staking periods (60 and 90 days) receive proportionally higher rewards, incentivizing patient capital.
The reward pool is designed to support staking rewards even as the ecosystem grows to significant scale.
Token Liquidity Allocation: Strategic Capital Efficiency
14,000,000 TUNDRA-X (7%)
The liquidity allocation is intentionally kept modest at 7% of the total supply:
Concentrated liquidity creates more efficient capital utilization.
Lower liquidity allocation means less selling pressure from liquidity providers.
Most liquidity pairs will be TUNDRA-X-XRP, strengthening the connection to the XRP ecosystem.
Team and Advisor Allocations
20,000,000 TUNDRA-X (10%)
Team and advisor tokens are subject to a strict vesting schedule designed to align long-term incentives:
12-month complete lock period during which no team tokens can be sold
Following the lock period, tokens vest gradually over 24 months
Some team members will stake their allocated tokens in Cryo Vaults, demonstrating confidence in the platform
R&D and Ecosystem Growth Fund
20,000,000 TUNDRA-X (10%)
To ensure continuous development and expansion of the ecosystem, 10% of the supply is reserved for research, development, and ecosystem growth:
Funding for new feature development and platform improvements
Resources for technical integrations with other XRPL projects
Development of enhanced NFT functionality through Frost Keys
Exploration of new use cases and applications for TUNDRA-X
Reserves and Emergency Fund
10,000,000 TUNDRA-X (5%)
Prudent financial management requires planning for unexpected challenges:
Funds for critical infrastructure needs or security enhancements
Resources for unexpected regulatory compliance requirements
Capital for strategic opportunities that may arise unexpectedly
Protection against extreme market conditions or black swan events
Marketing and Community Building
6,000,000 TUNDRA-X (3%)
The smallest allocation is dedicated to spreading awareness and building the community:
Resources for strategic marketing campaigns and partnerships
Funding for educational content and user guides
Support for community events and engagement initiatives
Rewards for community contributions and participation
TUNDRA-S Distribution: 100M Supply on Solana
Crypto Presale Allocation: 40% for Early Adopters
40,000,000 TUNDRA-S (40%)
The same percentage allocation applies to TUNDRA-S, ensuring balanced distribution across both tokens:
Early supporters can choose their preferred blockchain environment
Creates immediate liquidity and utility on Solana
Establishes a strong foundation for DeFi operations
Staking Rewards Through the Solana Cryo Vault System
25,000,000 TUNDRA-S (25%)
These tokens power the reward system for TUNDRA-S Cryo Vaults on Solana:
Rewards for single-token staking in TUNDRA-S vaults
Enhanced yields for liquidity provision in Blizzard Vaults
Strategic rewards for ecosystem participation
Incentives for Solana DeFi integration
Token Liquidity Allocation: DeFi Foundation
7,000,000 TUNDRA-S (7%)
TUNDRA-S liquidity is strategically allocated to support Solana’s DeFi capabilities:
Seeding initial DEX liquidity on major Solana exchanges
Support for concentrated liquidity positions
Strategic pairings with SOL and leading stablecoins
Foundations for advanced DeFi strategies
Team and Advisor Allocations
10,000,000 TUNDRA-S (10%)
The vesting schedule mirrors that of TUNDRA-X:
12-month complete lock period
24-month gradual vesting thereafter
Balanced allocation between TUNDRA-X and TUNDRA-S for team members

Users can choose their preferred blockchain based on specific needs or opportunities
Security measures protect bridge operations and prevent exploitation
Emission Schedule and Long-Term Sustainability
Both tokens follow carefully designed emission schedules:
Staking rewards are released gradually according to predetermined rates
Daily caps prevent excessive token circulation in early stages
Diminishing emission rates extend the sustainability of reward pools
Adaptive mechanisms adjust based on total participation levels
The dual-token fixed supply model prevents inflation on both blockchains, creating long-term scarcity as adoption grows.
Tokenomics Governance and Transparency
The management of both token supplies follows strict governance principles:
Regular reporting on token distribution and circulation
Community visibility into treasury operations
Future governance rights for token holders
Transparent communication about any strategic adjustments
