Live slice-versus-float board, so a community pie never pretends to be circulating supply at TGE.

01
Tokenomics slides love a colorful pie: community 40%, team 20%, investors 20%. That pie is allocation, who is promised supply. Float is how much of that supply can actually trade at TGE after each slice’s unlock percent. A huge community wedge with 2% unlock is not a community-heavy market.
This page keeps slice apart from float. The board compares the pie to TGE-liquid tokens and shows who owns that float when insider buckets unlock hard. Labels without unlocks are marketing, not market structure.
That is a different job from token vesting (unlocked tokens vs cash over months) or staking (quoted vs net). Here we stay on launch allocation versus circulating float, not a cliff ladder and not a validator commission peel.
Decision framing: “What % of supply is liquid at TGE, and who holds that float?”
02
Every bucket gets a TGE unlock %. Float tokens = slice tokens × unlock. Liquidity often unlocks fully; team and investors often unlock little at launch, unless the slide lies. Flip unlocks without changing pie percents to watch slice and float peel apart.
Airdrops live inside a community (or similar) slice: set that slice’s unlock to match how much is claimable day one. Eligibility rules stay off this board; float math does not invent Sybil resistance.
Load Insider float. Keep pie fixed. Drop team/investor TGE unlock toward 0 and watch insider share of float collapse: same slices, different market.
03
Mark team/investor rows as insider. The board reports insider float as a percent of total TGE float, the unique concentration affordance. A community-labeled pie can still leave most liquid supply with insiders if those buckets unlock early and community unlocks late.
That is not a vesting unlock ladder and not a loot certainty dial; it is liquid-power literacy at TGE. Governance later may dilute that picture, so start by not lying about day-one float.
04
Slices renormalize to 100% when needed. Float sums unlocked tokens. Insider float uses flagged buckets only. Locked residual is supply minus float, the part still waiting on cliffs and schedules you should model next on vesting.
Month-by-month cliffs belong on the vesting calculator. This board stops at TGE float honesty so the pie cannot steal the headline.
05
After the float board, hand off for schedule unlocks, yield peels, or LP take-home, not for “community 50% = fair.” Fairness claims need float, unlocks, and disclosure. This page only makes the first peel visible.
06
Scenario A, fair-ish float. Community and liquidity unlock meaningfully; insiders stay mostly locked. Slice and float stories roughly agree, but still verify schedules on vesting before you celebrate.
Switch to Insider float without reading the pie labels. Compare float % and insider share of float: slice against float in one preset hop.
Scenario B, insider float. Community pie looks large; TGE unlocks favor team/investors. Liquid power ignores slide labels. Raise community unlock while freezing insider unlocks to see the narrative chip move.
Scenario C, slice pride. Huge community wedge, tiny unlocks, thin float. Marketing is not market structure: the vanity metric is the pie; the honesty metric is float %.
Scenario D, sum chaos. Percents overrun 100%. Renormalize + chaos chip: fix the table before the launch thread, or the float board is fiction on fiction.

Stop here for allocation-versus-TGE-float literacy. Hand off for vesting schedules, staking peels, or LP take-home.

A pie chart of supply (community, team, investors…) is allocation. Float is how many of those tokens are actually liquid at TGE after each slice’s unlock %. A large “community” slice with 2% unlock is not the same as community-heavy float. Slice vs float.
Vesting owns unlocked vs cash over time (cliff, linear ladder). This page owns the supply pie versus TGE float before you model month-by-month unlocks. Hand detailed schedules to vesting.
Tokens marked team/investor that unlock at TGE, as a share of total float. A community-heavy pie can still leave most liquid supply in insider hands if those buckets unlock hard and community unlocks slowly.
The sketch renormalizes slices to 100% and flags sum chaos when the miss is large. Fix the table before publishing a tokenomics page.
Not by itself. Fairness claims need float, unlock schedules, and governance. Not a label on a pie. Slice vs float is the first honesty check.
No. Token launches involve securities, tax, and disclosure rules that vary by jurisdiction. This is an educational allocation/float sketch only.
Model airdrops inside a community (or similar) slice and set that slice’s TGE unlock to match how much is claimable at launch. The board does not invent eligibility rules.
