# Token Design and Staking

SEED is deployed on Solana, chosen for its active liquidity, partner alignment, and technical fit with Pineapple’s bundle sniping and launch tooling.

High level design:

* Chain – Solana
* Type – fixed supply utility and governance token
* Purpose – power the SEED growth engine and align incentives between founders, SEED, Pineapple, and the community<br>

Exact supply, distribution, and allocation details are published in a dedicated tokenomics schedule and may evolve over time as the ecosystem matures. The design focuses on:

* Sufficient circulating supply for liquid trading
* Meaningful long term reserves for growth and operations
* Clear buckets for community, ecosystem, team, and strategic partners

#### Staking and points

SEED staking is built around commitment and contribution:

* Fixed term staking options, for example 1, 3, 6, and 12 months
* Longer lock periods receive higher yield and higher point multipliers
* Points determine access tiers into SEED backed launches and influence governance weight<br>

This approach creates a clear link between time, commitment, and benefits.
