Not only is the Portal token now tradable, but crypto enthusiasts who took part in the project’s airdrop farming campaign on Twitter last year can also claim their portion of the initial airdrop. While some users on social media have expressed concerns about encountering difficulties with the claiming process and encountering regional restrictions, others have reported receiving thousands of dollars’ worth of the gaming token.
Among those joining in the excitement on launch day are Binance users who staked tokens in reward pools to earn a portion of the 50 million PORTAL tokens allocated for the crypto exchange’s Launchpool campaign. The peak staking activity on Wednesday surpassed $9 billion worth of crypto, setting a new record for Binance’s launch platform.
Understanding the Tokenomics
PORTAL has a maximum supply set at 1 billion tokens, strategically designed to foster value appreciation over time. Out of this, 50 million PORTAL tokens, which accounts for 5% of the maximum supply, will be dedicated to Launchpool rewards.
At the time of listing, the initial circulating supply of PORTAL tokens, as stated by Binance, will be 167,134,615, constituting 16.71% of the total maximum token supply. This deliberate choice of a low initial supply compared to the maximum reflects a calculated approach aimed at optimizing market entry and fostering long-term value.
