There was no ICO, EFYT tokens are released per development needs on exchange. Next they will be redeemed for ERGO during first year after mainnet launch

Max circulating amount of EFYT will be 1,971,000 before mainnet launch(10% of first year supply, team tax, to be able to redeem them during first year)

EFYT to ERGO swap will be taking place during the first year after mainnet launch. It is too early to talk about exchanges especially with scala and new technology. There will be for sure some gateway provided for Waves DEX to redeem EFYT for ERGO in meantime

Latest info about supply from Telegram:

Dmitry Meshkov: you may expect first year supply ~10 * (number of used tokens). For now number of used tokens is ~400k, so first year supply ~4M. Now I think that we'll use at most 1M tokens, so at most ~10M first year supply but situation may change to both directions)

nbdyowens: I want to invest and contribute, but after reading all the way back to Nov, still struggling with monetary supply. Will first year supply be 50% of total supply, like original 50M first year / 100M total plan? So if first year supply is 10*(400K to 1M) = 4M to 10M, then total supply would be between 8M and 20M?

Dmitry Meshkov:
yeah
