Emissions Distribution

Definition

Emissions distribution refers to the systematic allocation of newly generated tokens within a cryptocurrency protocol. This process dictates how new tokens are introduced into circulation, often as rewards for network participants, liquidity providers, or validators. The design of emissions distribution is a fundamental aspect of a protocol’s tokenomics, influencing inflation, supply dynamics, and economic incentives. It directly impacts the long-term health and decentralization of the network.
