# 💰 Total Supply

### 🔐 Tokenomics & Supply Design

QIE is built with a transparent and fair supply model, designed for long-term sustainability and community trust.

#### 💎 Fixed Maximum Supply

* **Total Max Supply**: `150,000,565 QIE`\
  \&#xNAN;*(One hundred fifty million, five hundred sixty-five QIE)*

There will never be more than this amount. The supply is hard-capped — meaning **no additional QIE coins will ever be minted**.

***

#### 🏁 No ICO — Fair Distribution

* ❌ **No ICO or Private Sale**: QIE did **not** conduct an initial coin offering (ICO), token pre-sale, or private funding rounds
* ✅ **Fair Mining**: All coins in circulation were **fairly mined** during the early stages of the network
* 👥 **Community First**: This ensures no early investors received preferential pricing or allocations

> The supply model is built on **fairness and transparency**, giving every participant an equal opportunity from day one.

#### 🎁 Rewards Allocation

* **Total Rewards for Validators and Delegators**: `66,000,000 QIE`\
  \&#xNAN;*(Sixty-six million QIE)*
  * Distributed over a span of over next 100 years
  * Rewards are drawn **only from this fixed allocation**

***

#### 🚫 No Unlimited Minting or Inflation

* There is **no mechanism for unlimited minting**
* **No artificial inflation**
* All rewards come **exclusively from the fixed cap**

***

#### 🔥 Deflationary by Design

As network usage grows and more transactions are processed:

* A portion of transaction fees is **burned**
* This creates **deflationary pressure** over time
* The result: **reduced supply**, increased scarcity, and long-term value sustainability
