# AITV Airdrops

To reward early users and seed DAO governance, **5% of $AITV supply (50M tokens)** is allocated to airdrops, released across multiple waves.

Airdrops are just one part of the broader [$AITV Token Economy](/the-usdaitv-economy.md), alongside governance staking, ecosystem incentives, and network value capture.
