Data: Initial Circulating Supply around 22% at the time of the LINEA TGE, with a total supply of approximately 72 billion tokens
BlockBeats News, September 10th, according to Linea's official documentation released earlier, the total supply of the LINEA token is approximately 72 billion, with 85% (61.2 billion) allocated to the ecosystem for community development, infrastructure construction, and support for Ethereum public goods. 75% of the ecosystem fund will be gradually released over the next 10 years. 10% (7.2 billion) is allocated for airdrops to reward early users, builders, and MetaMask ecosystem participants, with the tokens fully unlocked and no vesting period.
At the time of the TGE, the initial circulating supply is approximately 22%, with around 15.8 billion LINEA entering circulation, primarily distributed through airdrops and liquidity incentives (such as the Linea Ignition Plan). The LINEA token is not used to pay gas fees (ETH is still used for that purpose) but rather serves as an ecosystem incentive and fund coordination tool. Its specific use cases include rewarding liquidity providers for DeFi protocols, supporting public goods in the Ethereum ecosystem, incentivizing community activities, and developer contributions.
Linea introduces a dual burning mechanism:
20% of Layer 2 ETH net revenue is directly burned to enhance Ethereum's economic model.
80% is used for the repurchase and burning of LINEA tokens, aiming to reduce the circulating supply and increase token scarcity.
