No Premine. No ICO.

QUBITUM launches with a 100% fair distribution model. There are no pre-mined tokens, no venture capital allocation, and no team tokens. Every single QBT is earned through mining or staking.

Zero Premine

No tokens created before launch - everyone starts equal

No ICO/IDO

No token sale, no investor allocation, no presale

Community First

Treasury funded by block rewards, governed by stakeholders

Why Fair Launch?

Most cryptocurrency projects allocate 20-50% of tokens to founders, investors, and early backers before the public even has a chance to participate. This creates an uneven playing field where insiders can dump on retail investors.

QUBITUM follows the Bitcoin model: every token must be earned through work (mining) or commitment (staking). This ensures true decentralization from day one.

Where Does Each Block Reward Go?

Every block reward is split between three groups to ensure network security and sustainable development

16 QBT/block
63% PoW Miners

Miners who find valid blocks receive 63% of the block reward (10.08 QBT initially). This incentivizes hash power to secure the network against attacks.

Initial Reward: 10.08 QBT
27% PoS Stakers

Ticket holders who vote on blocks receive 27% of rewards (4.32 QBT split among 5 voters). Staking provides additional security and governance rights.

Initial Reward: 4.32 QBT (5 voters)
10% Treasury

10% goes to the treasury (1.6 QBT) for protocol development, security audits, marketing, and community grants. Spending is governed by stakeholder votes.

Initial Reward: 1.6 QBT

Halving Schedule

Block rewards halve every 630,000 blocks (~3 years) until reaching tail emission

Tail Emission

After 20 halvings (~60 years), QUBITUM enters "tail emission" mode where each block produces 0.1 QBT forever. This ensures miners always have an incentive to secure the network, even when transaction fees are low. The total supply approaches but never exceeds 21 million QBT.
