Emission Mechanism and Inflation
The emission of TON occurs through rewards to validators for supporting the security of the network.
Annual inflation: Approximately 0.55 – 0.6% of the total supply.
Daily issuance: The network generates an average of 88,137 new TON per day.
Burn mechanism: A portion of transaction fees (usually 50%) is burned. Approximately 3,140 TON are destroyed daily, partially offsetting inflation.
Key changes in 2025
From October 12, 2025, the process of unlocking a significant amount of coins from the TON Believers Fund will begin. Around 37 million TON will be released monthly (over 36 months), increasing the available market supply.
Earlier in 2023, the community voted to freeze 1.08 billion TON on genesis wallets (inactive miners) for 48 months, keeping these funds off the market until 2027.
