Everything You Need to Know About the ITLG Staking Mechanism
DAO Proposal 16 has officially reached its final result. Option 2 (Balanced Growth) was selected by the DAO community, with a ratio ranging from 1.125 ITLG / 1 ITL for the maximum 5-year lock and 120-month vesting period to 160 ITLG / 1 ITL for the minimum 0-year lock and 0-month vesting period.
The final staking options were generated with the support of machine learning models, providing three balanced choices built around three core principles:
• Scarcity and long-term sustainability
• Sufficient circulating supply for ecosystem absorption
• Protection against price manipulation
However, the models did not make the final decision. The DAO community voted and determined which option would be implemented.
The community chose. The protocol follows.
First, it is important to understand:
🔒 Your ITLG never leaves your wallet. It remains fully usable at all times. Only ITL is subject to the selected lock and vesting schedule.
Option 2 creates the most balanced approach between ecosystem expansion and long-term scarcity. It allows sufficient token flow to support real usage, payments, and ecosystem growth while still maintaining sustainable scarcity dynamics. This balance strengthens ITL’s potential to evolve into both a medium of exchange and a long-term digital reserve asset.
Below are several example scenarios based on 100,000 ITLG:
📌 Example 1: 0-Year Lock + 60-Month Vesting
• Ratio: 60 ITLG → 1 ITL
• 100,000 ITLG → ~1,667 ITL
• Payout starts immediately
• ~28 ITL released monthly over 60 months
📌 Example 2: 2-Year Lock + 36-Month Vesting
• Ratio: 21.25 ITLG → 1 ITL
• 100,000 ITLG → ~4,706 ITL
• Payout starts after a 2-year lock period
• ~131 ITL released monthly over 36 months
📌 Example 3: 5-Year Lock + 60-Month Vesting
• Ratio: 1.875 ITLG → 1 ITL
• 100,000 ITLG → ~53,333 ITL
• Payout starts after a 5-year lock period
• ~889 ITL released monthly over 60 months
Important Rules
🔄 vITLG and ITLG are fundamentally the same. All current ITLG holdings will be migrated 100%. However, the migration process will occur in multiple phases over time.
✅ Full flexibility: Users can split their ITLG across multiple staking positions, each with different lock and vesting combinations.
🔓 Once ITL is locked, the schedule becomes immutable. The payout timeline is permanently written into a smart contract the moment the user confirms the staking position. It cannot be changed by anyone, including the team. Your ITLG itself remains freely usable as normal.
📅 After the lock period ends, ITL can either release immediately in full (0-month vesting) or release linearly every month over the selected vesting period.
Conclusion
As @inter_link accelerates toward its highly anticipated Mainnet launch, establishing a robust and sustainable token economy remains the ecosystem’s highest priority.
The ITLG-to-ITL conversion model selected today is not merely a temporary mechanism. It will serve as the financial foundation of the entire ecosystem, directly influencing:
• Circulating supply
• Protocol liquidity
• Ecosystem expansion
• Long-term scarcity dynamics
• And the future value potential of ITL
The decisions made today will shape the sustainability, scarcity, and economic strength of the InterLink ecosystem for many years to come.
