1. Token Overview

The $ROAM token serves as the foundation of the Roam Network’s decentralized telecom infrastructure. It reflects the value generated through user participation, node contribution, and ecosystem applications — connecting the physical and digital layers of DePIN.

Key Utilities

• $ROAM can be used to purchase Roam eSIM services, redeem for WiFi routers, pay ROAM credit cards (coming)

• $ROAM can be used to purchase goods and services with ecosystem partners

• $ROAM can be converted into Roam points to support in-APP activities

• $ROAM is required for DAO Governance  

2. Token Allocation

$ROAM is allocated to key ecosystem participants and incentive programs to drive sustainable network expansion, user participation, and long-term alignment across the Roam ecosystem.

$ROAM Token Allocation Breakdown

Mining (60%)

The majority of $ROAM supply is reserved for network mining rewards, ensuring sustainable growth of Roam’s global open wireless network. This allocation incentivizes users to deploy WiFi miners, validate connections, and expand coverage globally. Emissions follow an exponential decay curve, balancing early growth incentives with long-term sustainability.

Team (12%)

Allocated to Roam’s founding team and long-term contributors who developed the network’s architecture, mobile applications, and ecosystem products. Tokens follow a multi-year vesting schedule (6-month cliff + 60-month quasi-linear vesting) to ensure continuous commitment and alignment with the project’s mission.

Marketing & Community (9%)

Dedicated to campaigns that strengthen Roam’s global user base and community participation. This includes user acquisition, brand partnerships, event sponsorships, and in-app reward programs designed to expand awareness and adoption. Most tokens in this category are available on Day 1 to support growth momentum.

A Round Investors (7.36%)

Allocated to institutional and strategic investors who backed Roam’s expansion into DePIN and telecom markets. Their continued participation supports liquidity provisioning, exchange listings, and ecosystem scaling. Tokens follow a 6-month cliff and 24-month quasi-linear vesting schedule.

Angel Round Investors (7.31%)

Reserved for early supporters and partners who provided initial capital and strategic guidance during Roam’s development stage. These tokens also follow a 6-month cliff with 24-month quasi-linear vesting, ensuring alignment with Roam’s long-term vision.

Seed Round Investors (3.41%)

Allocated to the earliest backers who funded the foundation of Roam’s open wireless network. Tokens are subject to a 6-month cliff and 24-month linear vesting to maintain alignment with sustainable ecosystem growth.

Future Investors (0.92%)

Reserved for future fundraising rounds or strategic collaborations that accelerate product innovation and cross-chain expansion. Tokens have no cliff and are vested linearly over three months.

3. Unlock Schedule and Difficulty Adjustment

The $ROAM token follows a Bitcoin-inspired exponential decay model to ensure long-term stability and sustainable emission control.

Monthly Release Curve

• 0.6% per month initially

• 0.35% per month after five years

• 0.2% per month after ten years

• 0.05% per month after twenty years

• 0.001% per month after fifty years

This predictable, pre-fixed curve forms the second fundamental anchor parameter of Roam’s tokenomics design. It aligns network incentives with ecosystem maturity, preventing inflationary pressure while ensuring steady rewards for contributors.

Difficulty Adjustment Mechanism

To maintain emission balance and price stability, Roam integrates a dynamic difficulty adjustment system inspired by Bitcoin. Every 1 million seconds (~11.5 days), the network evaluates activity levels such as node operations and token price movements:

• Bear Market    ↓ Reduces token emission when price falls → reduces selling pressure

• Bull Market    ↑ Recaptures deferred emissions when activity hits new highs → accelerates growth 

> Non-emitted tokens are *not* burned — they’re deferred and reinjected during uptrends, ensuring fair reward distribution across cycles.

Current Network Status

Following the October 11, 2025 market dip, Roam demonstrated strong resilience. Average check-ins during the latest evaluation period ranked #8 out of 20 historical periods.

• High-Water Mark (Check-ins): 4,352.43

• First Adjustment: Implemented starting Cycle 20,001 with a 15.83615% reduction in emission.

• Next Evaluation: Scheduled after 1,000 cycles (Cycle 21,000).

(Average Check-in Per Cycle from Verified Premium Users (Suspicious Check-in Removed) In the Past 20 Evaluation Period)

If average check-ins between Cycle 20,001–21,000 exceed 4,352.43, a new high-water mark will be set, restoring and boosting emissions with previously deferred tokens.

This self-correcting design links token issuance directly to network health, maintaining equilibrium between user incentives, ecosystem value, and circulating supply.

4. Circulating Supply

Following the Token Generation Event (TGE), $ROAM tokens entered circulation across major exchanges including Bybit, Gate.io, Binance Alpha, and others.

$ROAM’s design ensures consistent alignment between token value and network growth, with emissions tied directly to ecosystem activity and node validation metrics.

Roam initiated a special staking pool for Roam miner owners, and future node owners, distributing 6% of total $ROAM supply (≈60M tokens). This allocation led to a slight increase in monthly unlocks as part of a structured reward program to strengthen miner participation and long-term network security/efficiency.

5. Governance and Sustainability

The Roam Foundation oversees initial emission and vesting processes, with progressive decentralization through community governance.
Long-term governance features include:

• On-chain voting for network parameter updates.
  
  
  

• Treasury management for ecosystem grants.
  
  
  

• Community-led proposals for emission adjustments.
  
  
  

By combining transparent vesting, emission control, and decentralized decision-making, Roam ensures both immediate utility and enduring sustainability.
