What is a token vesting schedule?

Token vesting is a mechanism to gradually release tokens to recipients over time, preventing immediate sell pressure. Typical schedules have a cliff period followed by linear monthly releases.

Why do crypto projects use vesting?

Vesting aligns incentives by locking team and investor tokens for 1–4 years, preventing them from dumping tokens immediately after TGE (Token Generation Event) and protecting retail investors.
