Introducing $APR
The Intelligent Coordination Layer for High-Performance Blockchains
The Intelligent Coordination Layer for High-Performance Blockchains
Today we’re introducing $APR, the token at the center of aPriori. It represents the beginning of a new phase in how high-performance blockchains coordinate value and liquidity.
Why Now
The emergence of high-speed, high-throughput blockchains has redefined the limits of performance. Yet true efficiency requires more than speed. It requires alignment across validators, traders, and the data that connects them.
aPriori was built to bring that alignment to life. Through its architecture of intelligent order-flow segmentation, MEV-aware infrastructure, and liquid staking, aPriori turns fragmented execution into a coordinated system.
$APR is the next step in that evolution, representing shared participation in this growing network of data and flow.
Genesis Airdrop
Our inaugural distribution recognizes the contributors who have shaped aPriori since its inception.
Eligibility extends to:
Members of the aPriori community
Holders of MadLads and Moonbirds NFTs
Large and early aprMON holders
Testnet $APR holders
Contributors to the aPriori Order-Flow Data Knowledge Graph
This first release honors those who helped establish the foundation of aPriori’s coordination layer: the builders, data contributors, and early participants who set the system in motion.
Genesis Airdrop is the first airdrop and just the beginning.
Initial Token Distribution
The total supply of 1,000,000,000 APR will be distributed across several key groups to ensure long-term alignment and sustainable growth.
Early Backers (16%): Early investors who provided the capital that allowed aPriori to build core infrastructure, expand the team, and bring the product to market. This allocation follows a 3-year schedule with a 1-year cliff: 33% unlocks after 12 months, followed by quarterly vesting over the next 24 months.
Core Contributors (16%): Developers, researchers, and coordinators who built and maintain the protocol, governance framework, and organizational structure. This allocation compensates long-term work and ongoing commitment. This allocation follows a 4-year schedule with a 1-year cliff: 25% unlocks after 12 months, followed by quarterly vesting over the next 36 months.
Foundation (16%): Reserved to sustain aPriori’s long-term operations, support community initiatives, and fund grants that advance protocol and ecosystem development. 10% unlocks on day 1, followed by quarterly vesting over 4 years.
Genesis Airdrop (12%): Dedicated to rewarding early contributors and expanding the aPriori community. This includes recognition for meaningful on-chain activity and contributions to our AI model and data collection campaigns.
Community Incentives (22%): Set aside to reward long-term users, contributors, and ecosystem participants. Includes future airdrops, staking rewards, governance incentives, and partnership programs that promote user growth and retention. 10% unlocks on day 1, followed by quarterly vesting over 4 years.
Ecosystem Growth (17%): Allocated to initiatives that foster adoption, strategic partnerships, and projects that expand the reach and strength of the aPriori ecosystem. 10% unlocks on day 1, followed by quarterly vesting over 4 years.
Liquidity & Market Stability (1%): Reserved as exchange liquidity to reduce volatility and maintain price stability during early market phases. This allocation unlocks 100% on day 1.
Looking Ahead
$APR is launched on Ethereum and can be claimed on both Ethereum and BNB Chain. The vast majority of the airdrop allocation and the remaining supply will be unlocked on Monad, where the token will play its central role in network coordination and on-chain participation.
$APR begins as a recognition of contribution and marks the formation of a long-term foundation. As the ecosystem expands across networks, $APR will grow alongside it, linking flow, data, and participation into a single intelligent market fabric.
The aPriori team will continue to develop this framework, opening new paths for collaboration and participation as the network matures.
Great week🤘
Something interesting....
