Tokenomics FAQ

When does AETHER launch on mainnet?

AETHER launches on Solana mainnet in Q4 2026. Testnet (Devnet) is live now for early users. Reserve participants will receive tokens according to their chosen vesting schedule starting at mainnet launch.

Can I trade my vesting AETHER before it fully vests?

Once vested and released to your wallet, you can trade AETHER freely on any DEX or exchange. Unvested tokens remain locked in smart contracts and cannot be transferred.

What if I lose access to my Solana wallet?

It's critical to secure your Solana wallet backup. We recommend using hardware wallets or securely stored seed phrases. If you lose access, tokens cannot be recovered — this is standard for blockchain assets.

Is there a maximum token cap per reservation?

Early Supporter allocations are capped at 30% of total supply to ensure fair distribution. Individual reservations can range from 100 to 100,000+ AETHER depending on your tier and chosen vesting schedule.

How do I stake my AETHER tokens?

Staking pools will launch shortly after mainnet. You'll be able to delegate tokens to validators or lock them in governance contracts to earn 8-15% APY. Instructions will be provided via the AetherForge platform.

Will AETHER be available on other blockchains?

AETHER is native to Solana SPL. Cross-chain bridges to Ethereum, Polygon, and other chains are planned for 2027 to maximize accessibility and liquidity.
