# Tokenomics

HIT has a total supply of 1,000,000,000,000 (1,000 B), with further minting and burning denied. 

Initially the idea was to have a predominantly airdrop-led distribution, to those community members who have made significant contributions to the radix ecosystem. However, it soon became apparent this would have negatively impacted those first HITTERS, who bought when Liquidity Pool was instantiated. 

In April 2024, the percentages were as follows:

<table><thead><tr><th width="189">ITEM</th><th>PERCENTAGE</th><th>AMOUNT</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Initial Liquidity</td><td>18.5 %</td><td>185 B</td></tr><tr><td>$HIT Staking</td><td>12.75 %</td><td>127.5 B</td></tr><tr><td>LP Incentives / Airdrop</td><td>38.75 %</td><td>387.5 B</td></tr><tr><td>Founder</td><td>5 %</td><td>50 B</td></tr><tr><td>Team / Dev </td><td>10 %</td><td>100 B</td></tr><tr><td>Reserves</td><td>10 % </td><td>100 B</td></tr><tr><td>Promotion / fun</td><td>5 %</td><td>50 B</td></tr></tbody></table>

## May 2024 Revision- Founders Reserves and Validator Allocation

Following conversations with the community, and in particular questions around the reserve allocation, amendments were made to the percentages. It was put to Felix first by NFT Machinist on 4th May, and later by Radix Rocket Lounge on 8th May, that the 10% reserve is really a founders' reserve, since that is who holds the key to the account. This point was taken on board by Felix, and two decisions were made.&#x20;

1. To allocate the reserve to something tangible, now.&#x20;
2. To reduce the founder and co-founder shares from 5% each, to 2.5% each.&#x20;

As of May 8th 2024, the percentage allocations are as follows:

| ITEM                | PERCENTAGE | AMOUNT  |
| ------------------- | ---------- | ------- |
| Initial Liquidity   | 18.5 %     | 185 B   |
| $HIT Staking        | 12.75 %    | 127.5 B |
| Liquidity / Airdrop | 38.75 %    | 387.5 B |
| Founder             | 2.5 %      | 25 B    |
| Co-Founder          | 2.5 %      | 25 B    |
| Team / Dev          | 5 %        | 50 B    |
| Promotion / Fun     | 5 %        | 50 B    |
| Validator rewards   | 15 %       | 150 B   |

We believe the decision to lower founder and co-founder shares and allocate the reserves is a direct signal to the community that we value feedback and being asked the tough questions, a better distribution, and the use of funds to future-proof Addix's place within the Radix ecosystem. &#x20;
