What Is Unfair Distribution in Crypto?
It's not about being unfair to users; it's about being fair to the project's future.
In crypto launches, 'unfair distribution' refers to a token supply model where a significant portion is not released through a fair launch or public sale. Instead, allocations are reserved for the project creators, development team, early investors, and community incentives like airdrops. While 'fair launch' purists aim for zero pre-mine, an intentional unfair distribution funds ongoing work, marketing, and liquidity provision from the start.
For creators, it's a practical tool. Setting aside 10-30% of the total supply for the team and treasury allows you to pay for development, community airdrops, and exchange listings without immediately selling tokens on the open market. This planned allocation, when communicated transparently, can build more trust than a launch with no visible funding plan.
Why You Should Consider Increasing Unfair Distribution
Here are the concrete reasons to allocate a larger portion of tokens to the creator/team pool:
- Fund Development: A 20% creator allocation provides a treasury to pay developers, designers, and marketers, preventing the need for constant token sales that crash the price.
- Reward Early Believers: Allocate 5-10% for airdrops to early community members and NFT holders, turning supporters into vested stakeholders.
- Secure Listings: Centralized exchanges often charge listing fees. A dedicated treasury allocation of 5-10% can cover these costs without diluting the community pool.
- Incentivize Liquidity: You can use tokens from the allocation to fund liquidity pools on DEXs beyond the initial launch, improving price stability.
- Align Long-Term Interests: When creators hold a meaningful stake, they are incentivized to build for the long term, not just for a quick pump.
How Spawned's Model Supports Sustainable Distribution
Spawned builds revenue into the token's lifecycle, making your initial allocation last longer.
Not all launchpads treat creator revenue the same way. Here’s how Spawned’s built-in economics support a healthy unfair distribution strategy compared to a zero-fee model.
| Feature | Spawned | Typical Zero-Fee Launchpad |
|---|---|---|
| Creator Fee per Trade | 0.30% | 0% |
| Holder Rewards per Trade | 0.30% | 0% |
| Post-Graduation Fee | 1% via Token-2022 | None |
| Website Builder Cost | Included (saves $29-99/mo) | Extra cost |
| Launch Fee | 0.1 SOL (~$20) | Varies, often higher |
Spawned’s model is designed for longevity. The 0.30% creator fee provides a small, continuous revenue stream from trading activity, complementing your initial token allocation. The 0.30% holder reward encourages people to hold, reducing sell pressure. After your token graduates from the launchpad, the Token-2022 standard allows you to implement a 1% transfer fee that goes to a designated treasury wallet in perpetuity. This creates a sustainable funding model where your initial 'unfair' allocation is augmented by ongoing, protocol-enforced fees.
How to Increase Unfair Distribution on Spawned: Step-by-Step
Implementing your distribution strategy on Spawned is straightforward. Follow these steps during the token creation process.
A Real Example with Numbers
See how a 25% allocation, combined with trading fees, creates a powerful funding engine.
Let's say you launch 'GAME' token with a 1 billion total supply on Spawned. Your distribution plan looks like this:
- 250 million (25%) to Creator Treasury: Held in a multi-sig wallet for development.
- 100 million (10%) for Airdrops: To be distributed to early Discord members and NFT holders over 12 months.
- 650 million (65%) to Liquidity Pool: Paired with SOL for the initial DEX offering.
With Spawned's fee model, every trade also generates value. If the token reaches $1M in daily volume:
- Creator revenue: $1,000,000 * 0.30% = $3,000 per day to the treasury.
- Holder rewards: $3,000 per day distributed to token holders, encouraging holding. This daily revenue funds operations without needing to sell from the 250 million treasury allocation, preserving its value. After graduation, a 1% transfer fee on a $10M token with moderate turnover could generate six-figure annual revenue via Token-2022.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
An unfair distribution can backfire if handled poorly. Avoid these pitfalls:
- No Transparency: Hiding the allocations or locking periods will destroy trust. Detail your plan on your Spawned-built website.
- Allocation Too High: A 50%+ creator allocation is often seen as greedy and will discourage buyers. 15-30% is a more accepted range.
- No Vesting Schedule: Dumping your entire allocation at once will crash the price. Use vesting contracts (like a 24-month linear release) for team tokens.
- Ignoring Community: Failing to allocate anything for airdrops, contests, or liquidity mining misses a chance to build a loyal base.
- Forgetting the Website: The free AI website builder is a tool. Use it to communicate your vision and tokenomics clearly.

Frequently Asked Questions
There's no single rule, but a common and often well-received range for the combined creator/team/treasury allocation is between 15% and 30% of the total supply. Allocations above 40% are often viewed skeptically by the community. The key is transparency and a clear vesting schedule for any locked tokens.
The 0.30% fee on every trade creates a continuous, passive revenue stream for your project's treasury. This means you can fund marketing, development, and other costs without constantly selling tokens from your initial allocation. It helps preserve the value of your 'unfair' treasury while still providing operating capital.
No, the initial token supply and allocations are immutable once the token is created on the blockchain. You cannot mint more tokens or change the balances of the initial distribution wallets. This is why careful planning during the launch process on Spawned is crucial. You can, however, choose how and when to distribute tokens from your allocated wallets (e.g., scheduling airdrops).
Token-2022 is a new Solana program that extends the basic token standard. Its most relevant feature for creators is the ability to add a permanent transfer fee (e.g., 1%). On Spawned, after your token 'graduates' from the initial launch phase, you can upgrade to Token-2022. This enables a 1% fee on every token transfer, which is sent directly to a treasury wallet you control, creating a powerful, perpetual funding mechanism.
Not if executed transparently and responsibly. A fair launch with zero allocation often leads to abandoned projects because creators have no resources to build. A reasonable unfair distribution funds development, marketing, and community rewards. When the community sees the allocation being used to improve the project—communicated via your Spawned website—it can build more trust than a project with no clear funding plan.
No. Spawned's launchpad provides a user-friendly interface where you define your token's name, symbol, total supply, and distribution percentages in simple steps. The platform handles all the blockchain code for you. The integrated AI website builder also requires no coding, allowing you to create a professional page to explain your tokenomics.
The principles are similar. Whether launching a general community token or a specific [gaming token on Solana](/use-cases/token/how-to-create-gaming-token-on-solana), unfair distribution helps fund game development, tournaments, and rewards. Spawned's model is equally effective for any token type, providing the sustainable fees needed for long-term project health in any niche.
