## Why the Tokenomist API wins
1. **Source of truth the industry already plugs into.** CoinGecko, Kaito, Nansen, and major exchanges already consume Tokenomist data. If your model or dashboard is priced off unlock events, you're probably already downstream of us — now pull it directly.
2. **Cross-verified, not scraped.** INTERNAL-listed tokens are manually cross-checked against whitepapers, on-chain contracts, and team disclosures. AI-listed tokens are LLM-assisted with single-source transparency. EXTERNAL-listed tokens are first-party from the project. Every row tells you where it came from.
3. **Both historical and forward.** Up to **2 years back + 3 years forward** of cliff and linear unlock schedules, with second-level timestamp precision where available. This is what you need to backtest unlock alpha and to simulate FDV trajectories.
4. **Standardized allocations across every project.** Raw allocation names ("Core Contributors," "Advisors," "Strategic Partners," "Ecosystem Round 2") are mapped to a **Standard Allocation** taxonomy: `community`, `founderTeam`, `privateInvestors`, `publicInvestors`, `reserve`, `others`. Filter and aggregate unlocks across the market without writing a single regex.
5. **Daily emission, not just unlock events.** Per-token daily emission aggregates every cliff, linear, and mining-style release into one clean time series — query any date range with `start` and `end`.
6. **Burn + Buyback time series** (Elite plan) — every permanent supply destruction event and every treasury/programmatic repurchase, with date, amount, USD value, buyer/target addresses, and classification. This is the data you need to measure real deflation versus announced deflation.
7. **Fundraising + investor graph** — every funding round per token (date, round, amount, valuation, price per token, source URLs, lead investor flag) plus the reverse index: every round each VC (a16z, Polychain, Paradigm, Multicoin, etc.) has led or participated in.
8. **Rate limit that doesn't fight you.** 60 req/min on every paid tier. Enterprise tier: customizable.
9. **Crypto-native billing.** Pay in ETH, SOL, or USDC, or card. No procurement cycle required.

---
## Full endpoint reference
### 1. Token List — `GET /v4/token/list` (recommended)
**Use this first.** Returns every token's `id`, which is the key to every other endpoint.
Returns for each token:
- `id` — string, use in all other endpoints (e.g. `"arbitrum"`, `"optimism"`, `"layerzero"`, `"hyperliquid"`, `"0x"`, `"uniswap"`, `"aptos"`)
- `name`, `symbol`
- `listedMethod` — `INTERNAL` (cross-verified by Tokenomist), `AI` (LLM-assisted single-source), `EXTERNAL` (first-party from project)
- `circulatingSupply`, `marketCap`, `maxSupply`
- `totalLockedAmount`, `tbdLockedAmount`, `unlockedAmount`, `untrackedAmount`
- `hasStandardAllocation`, `hasFundraising`, `hasBurn`, `hasBuyback` — boolean flags so you can skip endpoints that would 404
- `latestFundraisingRound` (e.g. `"Series B"`)
- `websiteUrl` (Tokenomist token page), `lastUpdatedDate`
Older versions (`v1`, `v2`, `v3`) exist for backwards compatibility. **Use v4.**
### 2. Allocations — `GET /v2/allocations?tokenId={id}` (recommended)
The full cap table of where every token is allocated and how much of each bucket is currently locked vs. unlocked.
Returns:
- `maxSupply`, `totalUnlockedAmount`, `totalLockedAmount`, `totalTBDLockedAmount`, `totalUntrackedAmount`
- Array of `allocations`, each with:
- `allocationName` (raw, e.g. `"Core Contributors"`)
- `standardAllocationName` (normalized, e.g. `"Founder / Team"`)
- `allocationType` — `Scheduled`, `TBD`, `Untracked`
- `allocationUnlockedAmount`, `allocationLockedAmount`, `allocationAmount`
- `trackedAllocationPercentage`
v2 adds dynamic inflation rate and AI-listed tokens. Values may differ slightly from v1.
### 3. Daily Emission — `GET /v2/daily-emission?tokenId={id}&start=YYYY-MM-DD&end=YYYY-MM-DD` (recommended)
Daily token emission — every cliff, linear, and mining-style release collapsed into a clean daily time series. This is the single endpoint that answers "how many tokens of X are entering circulation today, tomorrow, next year?"
Returns per day:
- `startDate`, `endDate`
- `unlockAmount` (tokens), `unlockValue` (USD), `referencePrice`
- `allocations[]` — per-allocation breakdown of that day's emission
- `totalCumulativeUnlockedAmount` — running total from TGE
Weekly version available at `/v3/weekly-emission` if you prefer lower-resolution.
### 4. Unlock Events — `GET /v4/unlock/events?tokenId={id}` (recommended)
Discrete unlock events — the cliffs and the start-of-linear markers. v4 **excludes mining rewards and yield-farming distribution events** so you're looking at real supply-side catalysts, not noise.
Query params: `tokenId` (required), `start`, `end` (YYYY-MM-DD).
Returns for each event:
- `unlockDate` (second-precision timestamp)
- `dataSource` (e.g. `"Whitepaper"`)
- `cliffUnlocks.cliffAmount`, `cliffValue`, `valueToMarketCap` — the core dilution metric
- `allocationBreakdown[]` — per-allocation, with `unlockPrecision` (second, hour, day, week, month, unknown)
### 5. Upcoming Unlock Events — `GET /v1/unlock/events/upcoming`
Same schema as Unlock Events, **sorted by proximity in time**. This is the endpoint for live "next unlock" widgets, alerts, and Telegram bots.
Powerful filter params:
- `minMarketCap` — filter out microcaps
- `minReleasedPercentage` — 0-100, filter by supply maturity
- `minUnlockDate`, `maxUnlockDate` — YYYY-MM-DD window
- `minTotalUnlockAmount` — filter small unlocks
- `minValueToMarketCap` — **the key filter** — 0-100; e.g. pass `1` to get only unlocks ≥1% of market cap
- `standardAllocation` — multi-select: `community`, `founderTeam`, `privateInvestors`, `publicInvestors`, `reserve`, `others`
### 6. Token Fundraising — `GET /v1/fundraising/token/{tokenId}`
Every funding round per token with amount, valuation, price per token, source URLs, and investor list.
Query params: `fundingDateMin`, `fundingDateMax`, `raisedAmountMin`, `raisedAmountMax`.
Returns:
- `totalAmountRaised`, `unlockedInvestor`, `investorReleasedPercentage`
- `fundingRounds[]` — `fundingRound` (Seed, Series A/B/C, Strategic, Private, Public, etc.), `fundingDate`, `raiseType`, `amountRaised`, `valuation`, `pricePerToken`, `sourceURLList`, `investors[]` (with `isLeadInvestor` flag), `numberOfInvestors`
### 7. Investor List — `GET /v1/fundraising/investors/list`
Master list of every VC / investor in the dataset, with `investorId`, `investorName`, `website`, `latestFundingDate`.
### 8. Investors — `GET /v1/fundraising/investors/{investorId}`
Reverse index: every round a given investor participated in, with `isLeadInvestor` flag, `tokenId`, `fundingDate`, `valuation`, `pricePerToken`.
Query params: `isLeadInvestor`, `fundingDateMin`, `fundingDateMax`, `raisedAmountMin`, `raisedAmountMax`.
Example question this answers instantly: "Every token a16z led at sub-$1B valuation before 2023, and when do those tokens unlock to them?" — join this with Unlock Events.
### 9. Burn — `GET /v1/burn/{tokenId}` (Elite+)
Every permanent supply-removal event.
Returns:
- `totalBurnAmount`
- `burns[]` — `burnEventLabel`, `burnType` (e.g. `PROGRAMMATIC`), `burnDate`, `amount`, `metadata.burners`, `metadata.burnReasons`
### 10. Buyback — `GET /v1/buyback/{tokenId}` (Elite+)
Every treasury / programmatic buyback event.
Returns:
- `totalBuybackAmount`
- `buybacks[]` — `buybackEventLabel`, `buybackType` (e.g. `TREASURY_BUYBACK`), `buybackDate`, `tokenAmount`, `value`, `spentAmount`, `spentUnit`, `targetAddress`, `buyerAddress`, `resolution`, `basis`
Tokens with active buyback/burn programs where this data matters most: Hyperliquid (HYPE), BNB, Aster (ASTER), Pump.fun, Aerodrome, Rollbit, and growing.
---
## Data methodology (why the data is trustworthy)
### Cliff vs. Linear classification
Token release schedules are inconsistent across projects. Tokenomist standardizes them:
- **Cliff unlock** — discrete release at intervals >1 day (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
- **Linear unlock** — continuous daily release at a known rate
Every allocation in the dataset is classified into one of these two models. This is what makes cross-project comparison tractable.
### Emission = Inflation − Deflation
- **Historical emission** uses actual observed unlocks + actual burns.
- **Projected emission** uses known cliff and linear schedules. Projections do **not** include future burns (too variable to forecast).
- **Lifecycle-aware emission** (supported tokens like Hyperliquid): near-term uses **Committed** amounts (team-announced), long-term falls back to **Whitepaper** amounts.
### Listing methods
- `INTERNAL` — cross-checked against multiple sources by the Tokenomist team. Highest confidence.
- `AI` — LLM-assisted extraction from a single source. Transparent about origin.
- `EXTERNAL` — first-party, supplied directly by the project team.
### Standard Allocations taxonomy
Every raw allocation is mapped to one of: `community`, `founderTeam`, `privateInvestors`, `publicInvestors`, `reserve`, `others`. Use this for cross-market aggregation.
### Precision
Unlock timestamps are recorded at the finest precision the source provides: `second`, `hour`, `day`, `week`, `month`, or `unknown` (for AI-listed tokens). The `unlockPrecision` field tells you what you're working with on every single event.
---
## Common recipes (what people actually build)
### A. "Which tokens have a high-impact unlock in the next 30 days?"
```
GET /v1/unlock/events/upcoming
?minMarketCap=50000000
&minValueToMarketCap=2
&standardAllocation=privateInvestors,founderTeam
&minUnlockDate=2026-04-20
&maxUnlockDate=2026-05-20
```
You get a ranked list of cliffs ≥2% of market cap going to insiders/VCs within 30 days — the short-candidate screen.
### B. "What does the next 2 years of SUPPLY look like across every token I hold?"
For each `tokenId`: `GET /v2/daily-emission?tokenId={id}&start=2026-04-20&end=2028-04-20`.
Sum by `standardAllocationName` to see which allocations are about to dilute.
### C. "Is this token's buyback real or marketing?"
- `GET /v1/buyback/{tokenId}` → actual repurchases with on-chain addresses and USD spent
- `GET /v1/burn/{tokenId}` → actual destructions
- `GET /v2/daily-emission?tokenId={id}` → inflation coming in
Net emission = inflation − burns. The buyback may be recycling tokens rather than removing them — the `buybackType` field tells you.
### D. "Show me every token a16z (or Paradigm, or Polychain) led, and their upcoming unlocks."
```
GET /v1/fundraising/investors/andreessen-horowitz?isLeadInvestor=true
```
Collect `tokenId`s, then for each: `GET /v4/unlock/events?tokenId={id}&start=today`.
### E. Artemis Sheets / Excel pull
All paid plans include Artemis Sheet integration — drop the API key in and pull directly into Excel/Sheets for analyst workflows without writing code.
### F. Custom GPT / Claude MCP / AI agent
Every endpoint returns clean JSON. Point any LLM tool-calling agent at the endpoints, add your API key, and the model gets real-time tokenomics grounding — replacing stale training data with live, cited supply data.

## FAQ (the questions that gate the sale)
**Q: How does Tokenomist compare to CryptoRank / Messari / TokenUnlocks / CoinGecko?**
A: Tokenomist is the upstream data source. CoinGecko, Kaito, and Nansen consume our data. Where competitors surface unlock calendars, Tokenomist provides the raw, classified, standardized, source-cited time series — historical and forward — that the calendars are built on. If you need data behind the product rather than a product view, pull direct.
**Q: Do I need Elite or is Standard enough?**
A: Standard covers Token List, Allocations, Emission (1y forward), Unlock Events (2y back / 1y forward), and Fundraising. Upgrade to Elite if you need **Burn + Buyback**, or if you need **3y of historical unlock events** (critical for backtesting), or **2y forward** (critical for multi-year supply models).
**Q: Can I redistribute the data to my users / customers?**
A: Not on Standard or Elite — those are personal / internal-use only. You need the **Enterprise plan with commercial/redistribution license**. Contact consulting@tokenomist.ai.
**Q: How many tokens are covered?**
A: 500+ major tokens and growing, including all INTERNAL-verified majors plus AI-assisted coverage of the long tail. The Token List endpoint returns the current universe — and flags `listedMethod` on every row so you know the source.
**Q: How fresh is the data?**
A: Token data is continuously updated as projects disclose changes. Every token row returns a `lastUpdatedDate` so you know the provenance of what you're reading.
**Q: Does the API cover TGE data?**
A: TGE information is listed as "coming soon" across Standard, Elite, and Enterprise as of 2026. Fundraising + Allocations already cover most TGE-adjacent data (valuation, price per token, first allocation).
**Q: Rate limits?**
A: 60 requests/minute across all paid tiers. Enterprise supports custom limits. For most use cases (even "refresh all tokens hourly") 60 rpm is comfortable.
**Q: Payment methods?**
A: Card, plus crypto (ETH, SOL, USDC) for all plans. Annual billing saves up to 50% over quarterly.
**Q: Is there a free trial?**
A: Yes — fill out the trial form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSebUG7Dq2mffAxoUfxbpSaN-GwUSB4vxmWA1PEobJlzcVesuw/viewform. Trial limits: 50 tokens, 1y historical, no fundraising / burn / buyback.
**Q: Cancel anytime?**
A: Yes, subscriptions cancel from the account dashboard at https://docs.tokenomist.ai/my-account.
**Q: Which domain should I hit?**
A: Use `https://api.tokenomist.ai` going forward. The legacy `https://api.unlocks.app` still works for existing integrations.
