stairsPresale Phases

The TAUX presale is structured across nineteen phases with incrementally increasing token prices. Each successive phase allocates a larger number of tokens at a higher price. Earlier phases offer a lower entry point relative to the listing price. Once a phase is fully subscribed, it closes permanently and the next phase begins.

Pricing Structure

The presale begins at $0.010 per token in Phase 1 and increases to $0.070 per token in Phase 19. The listing price is $0.08 per token. Each phase transition occurs when the allocated tokens for the current phase are fully subscribed.

The incremental pricing structure incentivizes early participation while distributing supply across a broad base of holders before public listing. Phase 1 participants enter at an 8x discount to listing. The final phase offers a 12.5% discount. Every presale participant enters below the public listing price.

Early phases are deliberately small. Phase 1 raises $240,000 before closing. Phases 1 through 5 combined raise under $2.2 million. This structure rewards early conviction and creates natural demand pressure as each phase sells out.

Vesting

Presale tokens are subject to a vesting schedule designed to reduce concentrated sell pressure at launch and align participants with the protocol's early operational performance.

All presale participants follow the same vesting terms regardless of phase. Tokens unlock linearly over months two through six after a one-month cliff. Vesting restricts selling and transferring, not staking. Presale holders can use their TAUX to access the trading pool from day one at TGE, earning returns on their staked capital while their tokens vest. This ensures that presale participants have a vested interest in the protocol's medium-term performance rather than immediate post-listing liquidity.

Supply Context

The presale distributes 40% of the total TAUX supply. The remaining 60% is allocated across pool staking rewards, agent creator incentives, security reserves, liquidity, partnerships, community programs, the founding team, and the DAO treasury, each with its own vesting schedule and release conditions.

After listing, the TAUX burn mechanism activates. Every fee collected by the protocol permanently removes tokens from circulation. The total supply of 2,000,000,000 at launch is the maximum that will ever exist. From that point forward, the circulating supply only decreases.
