GIV Token Distribution

An amount of 1 billion GIV tokens were minted at the onset of the GIVeconomy. 100 million of the GIV tokens are liquid and available for use immediately, and the other 900 million have been allocated to the GIVstream and are being released continuously throughout the entire “GIViverse” over a period of 5 years (until December 23, 2026). The distribution of the total supply of GIV throughout the GIViverse is outlined in the following graphic:

The GIVeconomy has been built thanks to our dedicated community of Givers. Giveth has been growing since 2016 on a foundation of donations, time, skills, sweat, generosity & love! We are proud to launch an economy by and for the donors, with no money gleaned from presales or venture capitalists.

The GIVeconomy Future

The launch of the GIVeconomy with all the features described above is only the beginning - we are already crafting the next phase of the Future of Giving. We’re developing systems that will completely change the way societies create and reward the creation of public goods.

Gurves

A major problem that exists within today’s society is that public goods creators rely on donations and, ultimately, sacrifice to get by. Unlike in the private goods sector, there are no market dynamics in the public goods sector to drive innovation and growth.

The GIV token will introduce the power of open markets to the public goods sector through Gurves. Gurves will use bonding curves to enable projects to launch their own GIV-backed microeconomies, connected to the real-world value they provide. Bonding curves are smart contracts that hold collateral and mint or burn tokens according to a mathematically determined price curve. This provides stability to the new project’s token economy and built-in liquidity.

Gurves will allow projects to tokenize their impact and, thanks to the augmented bonding curve, will offer built-in revenue streams that thrive with speculation.

Gurves is our biggest dream and the central point of our long-term roadmap.

Giveth’s mission is to reward and empower those who give.

The GIVeconomy is a major milestone in the Future of Giving and is enabling our collective of projects, donors, builders, and community members to give in new ways that support projects, society & the world!
