Melania Meme (MELANIA) Tokenomika

The Official Melania Meme ($MELANIA) is a Solana-based memecoin launched on January 19, 2026. Marketed as a digital collectible and an expression of support for the values embodied by Melania Trump, the token features a structured economic model designed to balance initial liquidity with long-term team commitment.

Issuance Mechanism

The total supply of $MELANIA is capped at 1,000,000,000 tokens. At the time of launch, the initial circulating supply was approximately 250,000,000 tokens (25% of the total supply). The tokens are minted on the Solana blockchain, a network selected for its high transaction speeds and low fees.

Allocation Mechanism

The token distribution is divided into five primary segments, as detailed in the table below:

Usage and Incentive Mechanism

The primary function of $MELANIA is to serve as a "digital collectible" for engagement and support. While it is marketed as a fun, community-driven token rather than an investment asset, it has seen the following utility and incentive developments:

• Liquidity Partnerships: The project partnered with market makers like Wintermute to boost liquidity, transferring 20,000,000 tokens for this purpose.
• Payment Integration: Platforms such as MemePay have added support for $MELANIA, allowing users to spend the token with zero fees and earn rewards or cashback.
• Ecosystem Expansion: The project has indicated plans for a revamped website and ongoing development to expand the "Melania Meme" ecosystem.

Locking Mechanism and Unlocking Time

The project employs a specific vesting schedule for the team's 35% allocation to ensure long-term alignment. Other segments like Public Distribution and Liquidity were 100% unlocked at the Token Generation Event (TGE).

Team Vesting Schedule

• Initial Lock Period: Day 1 to Day 30.
• First Unlock (Cliff): On Day 30 (February 18, 2026), 10% of the team allocation (30,000,000 tokens, or 3% of the total supply) is released.
• Linear Vesting: The remaining 90% of the team allocation vests linearly over the following 12 months (Months 2 through 13).
• Monthly Release: Approximately 26,250,000 tokens (2.25% of the total supply) are released each month.
• Full Vesting: The team allocation is scheduled to be fully vested by Month 13 (January 18, 2027).

Other Allocations

The Treasury and Community allocations (20% each) do not have specific disclosed daily unlock schedules in early documentation, though some data suggests a placeholder unlock date of February 18, 2027, for the remaining balances if not utilized earlier for strategic initiatives or rewards.
