| Allocation | Amount | Vesting / lock-up |
|---|---|---|
| Public sale + liquidity (Base BETTER/WETH) | 124,668,904 | Public sale unlocked at TGE; liquidity deployed to the Base BETTER/WETH pool with LP tokens locked permanently; remaining supply burned post bonding curve launch |

Estimated circulating supply is approximately 121,112,384 tokens (public sale plus liquidity allocation, net of team, treasury, OpenServ and programmatic funding wallets). 290,998,061 tokens were burned during the bonding curve launch, reducing total supply from 1,000,000,000 to 709,001,939.
Access gate
BETTER uses a token-denominated access gate.
Key rules
- Terminal access is unlocked by holding the required
$BETTERamount or by already having the qualifying amount staked for future vault access - access is checked per wallet and per user session
- if a user only qualifies with liquid
$BETTERand sells below the requirement during a session, the session can time out - once BETTER reaches a new fully diluted valuation all-time high, the lower threshold becomes the new permanent threshold and does not move back up later if FDV falls
Current bands
| FDV band | Standard Terminal | Lite Mode | Future Vault stake |
|---|---|---|---|
| Below $10M | 100,000 $BETTER | 50,000 $BETTER | 100,000 $BETTER |
| $10M – $20M | 75,000 $BETTER | 37,500 $BETTER | 75,000 $BETTER |
| $20M – $100M | 50,000 $BETTER | 25,000 $BETTER | 50,000 $BETTER |
| $100M or more | 10,000 $BETTER | 5,000 $BETTER | 10,000 $BETTER |
Worked example
If a user bought enough $BETTER to qualify at a higher threshold and BETTER later hits a new FDV all-time high that permanently lowers the gate, that user can reduce their token exposure to the new threshold and still keep access.
Lite Mode
Lite Mode is a Terminal-only option.
- it halves the standard Terminal access requirement
- it does not change future vault stake requirements
- it charges a 2% fee on the nominal value of each filled Terminal copy trade
- the fee is charged per fill, not at market resolution
Vault fee overview
The planned BETTER vault design uses a 20% performance fee on profit only, charged once at withdrawal.
BETTER describes this as using a wallet-level high-water mark, which means the fee only applies to new net profit above the highest value that wallet's vault position has previously reached.
Trading taxes
BETTER uses a 2% buy tax and 2% sell tax for interaction with the Aerodrome $BETTER/WETH liquidity pool.
Important clarifications:
- this is not a simple wallet-to-wallet transfer tax
- it is separate from Lite Mode fees
- LP tax proceeds are split between BETTER and OpenServ development wallets
Treasury, burns and value flow
BETTER may perform discretionary, rule-based market buybacks and transfer bought tokens to a burn wallet.
Current treasury spending is described as a majority team decision.
Planned future value lines
BETTER describes several future products that may later contribute to discretionary treasury actions once those products are live, including:
- future vault performance fees
- future B2B data ingestion products
- future OpenRouter credit sales
- future arbitrage around
vBETTERand other later products
Those products are part of BETTER's intended direction, not the current live product set as of 6 March 2026.
Programmatic funding
BETTER's programmatic funding schedule is intended to support infrastructure, hardware and future model distribution work.
| FDV range | Sold | Raise | Cumulative |
|---|---|---|---|
| $1M – $5M | 2% | $60,000 | $60,000 |
| $5M – $10M | 2% | $150,000 | $210,000 |
| $10M – $20M | 2% | $300,000 | $510,000 |
| $20M – $50M | 2% | $700,000 | $1,210,000 |
| $50M – $100M | 2% | $1,500,000 | $2,710,000 |
