The Coral Foundation is proud to unveil the tokenomics for the Coral Finance protocol, marking a pivotal step forward in our mission to build the future of DeFAI and pre-market trading. The introduction of $CORL establishes the foundational layer for a vibrant, community-aligned ecosystem and serves as the core asset powering the entire DeFAI application layer.

At the core of this new economy is $CORL, the native utility and governance token, meticulously engineered to synchronize long-term incentives among all participants—users, alpha seekers, project partners, and ecosystem builders. $CORL is designed to empower decentralized governance over the protocol's critical mechanisms, including value accumulation and feature evolution.

This article outlines the multifaceted utilities and strategic allocation of $CORL, crafted to incentivize sustainable growth, ensure deep liquidity, and reinforce unwavering community alignment.

Total Supply: 1,000,000,000 $CORL

$CORL will be capped at 1,000,000,000 and it is minted on the BNB Chain.

$CORL serves as the foundational token of Coral's DeFAI ecosystem, designed to drive innovation in decentralized AI-powered finance and yield access. $CORL utilities span governance, ecosystem growth, and premium functionality access. It creates a synergistic economy where participants are rewarded for contributing to the Coral’s expansion.

Holders of $CORL can stake their tokens to actively participate in the governance of the Coral protocol. Staking duration correlates with voting power, ensuring long-term alignment with the Coral’s vision. Key governance decisions include adjustments to trading parameters and fee structures, allocation of ecosystem and liquidity incentives, approval of strategic partnerships and feature integrations.

$CORL is central to Coral’s incentive programs, designed to stimulate adoption, liquidity, and collaboration:

• Liquidity providers receive $CORL rewards for supplying capital to pre-market trading pools.

• The protocol strategically allocates $CORL tokens to premium ecosystem partners who provide essential infrastructure and services that complement Coral's core offerings. These partnerships are specifically designed to address functional gaps in the platform while advancing the collective mission of building a comprehensive DeFAI layer.

• Community contributors are recognized with $CORL for their efforts in content creation, community moderation, and technical development and user acquisition initiatives.

• liquidity support for projects that list pre-market assets, ensuring sufficient market depth and stability during their initial trading phases.

• $CORL functions as a reward instrument for users participating in staking programs, referral activities, and other protocol contributions.

The token provides exclusive access to Coral's premium services and products, serving as the payment method for specialized yield-generating opportunities,  AI-driven analytics, automated strategy tools and other advanced DeFAI tools.The range of $CORL-powered functionalities will continue to grow as the protocol evolves.

Coral continues to develop  value capture  mechanisms that further integrate $CORL into the ecosystem's growth trajectory. Future developments include implementing revenue-sharing models connected to platform fees and pre-market trading, expanding the token's utility within Coral's AI-powered DeFAI infrastructure, and more.

Airdrops often attract short-term attention, followed by selling pressure that can lead to price declines, which may undermine Coral’s long-term builders and the project’s sustainable development.

A dynamic airdrop allocation mechanism will be implemented to reward early adopters, community supporters, and builders who demonstrate long-term commitment to Coral.

Airdrop rewards consist of two components: Direct Airdrop and Reef Point Airdrop. All airdrop rewards will accumulate over time, with different claim ratios and reward amounts corresponding to different time periods.

The following Direct Airdrop will be divided into 2 Seasons, corresponding to 50%, 50%. It includes:

• GoPlus SAFU event

• Movement Parthenon winners

The following Direct Airdrop will be allocated in Season 1:

• Old symbolized CORL for tracking activities and contributions (>=20)

• Symbolized CORL for tracking liquidity incentives

Here is the Direct Airdrop-to-CORL claim ratio table for Season 1:

For example,

If you have 10,000 $CORL to be claimed, you can claim 840 (0.084*10,000) $CORL between Day 28 - Day 60.

Reef Point Airdrop:

• Engaged in Coralantis and accumulated at least 100 Reef Points

• Participated in $MUSSEL trading

The final amount of Reef Points will be calculated based on the following table, which accounts for various user actions.

For example,

If you have 100,000 Reef Points with 10,000 unlocked and 90,000 locked, and 500,000 $MUSSEL purchased before, you will get:

Final amount of Reef Points = 90,000*1 + 10,000 *1.4 + 500,000 * 0.7 = 139,000

Here is the Reef Point Airdrop-to-CORL claim ratio table:

You can check your claimable amount on the airdrop page after it launches. Please stay tuned for the announcement on the airdrop.

Thanks for being part of Coral’s journey. If you are not qualified for $CORL airdrop this time, do not worry. More exciting opportunities await, so your participation will count for the next Season.

$CORL TGE is just a new beginning. Moving forward, we will release innovative products, collaborate with a group of leading partners to co-build DeFAI and reach a broader crypto market. Our goal remains unchanged: to onboard more Web2 users into DeFi seamlessly and efficiently.

Defy finite, DeFi infinity🪸.
