Tokenomics & Fees

$EAT’s economics are unusual by design: a fixed supply, a fee that funds meals on every trade, liquidity that can never be pulled, and a vesting schedule tied to real meals funded rather than calendar dates.

Supply

Section titled “Supply”
  • Total supply: 100,000,000,000 $EAT, fixed, on Base. Launched December 10, 2025.
  • 20% (20 billion) was deployed at launch as initial liquidity and operational liquidity support.
  • 80% (80 billion) is locked and vests only as meals-funded milestones are reached (see the ladder below).

The 1% fee

Section titled “The 1% fee”

Every trade pays a 1% fee, taken in ETH, that routes on-chain to a set of cause and treasury Safes. In plain terms: trading $EAT funds meals automatically, with no one’s hand on the switch.

  • Conversion used: a conservative $1 = 5 meals (below Feeding America’s published figure).
  • As of the May 2026 briefing, about $35,500 had accrued to the cause/treasury Safes, with nothing disbursed yet (the project is early and intact).

Permanent liquidity

Section titled “Permanent liquidity”

$EAT trades against a single-sided Uniswap V4 position originally seeded with 10 billion $EAT, and its LP token has been burned. That makes the liquidity permanent: it can never be withdrawn, by the team or anyone else. As people trade, ETH flows into the pool and is locked there too; the only way it comes out is by someone buying or selling.

The vesting ladder (meals, not dates)

Section titled “The vesting ladder (meals, not dates)”

Instead of unlocking on calendar dates, $EAT unlocks as cumulative meals-funded thresholds are reached through verified 501(c)(3) partners. Each milestone releases 16 billion $EAT:

Milestone Meals Tokens released Cumulative unlock
M1 100,000,000 16B 36%
M2 250,000,000 16B 52%
M3 500,000,000 16B 68%
M4 750,000,000 16B 84%
M5 1,000,000,000 16B 100%

(Cumulative begins at 20% because of the launch deployment.) Because the team, nonprofit partners, community rewards pools, and treasury all vest on the same variable, everyone is aligned on one outcome: fund more meals.

Published tracking dates (for platforms like CoinMarketCap that require calendar dates; these are conservative projections, not promises): M1 Dec 1 2027, M2 Aug 1 2028, M3 Jun 1 2030, M4 Jul 1 2032, M5 Dec 1 2033. Actual unlock happens the moment the meal threshold is hit, earlier or later than the published date.

Why a little volume moves price

Section titled “Why a little volume moves price”

$EAT launched with a deliberately thin float (80% locked), so price is unusually sensitive to volume in both directions. Per the May 2026 briefing, roughly every $50,000 in net buying moves market cap by about $10M, and an estimated $3.5M in cumulative net purchases would carry $EAT to a $1B fully diluted valuation at then-current ETH prices.
