Protocol Labs & Filecoin Foundation Vesting Ends

Filecoin (FIL) · Token Unlocks · October 15, 2026

Filecoin's six-year Protocol Labs and Filecoin Foundation FIL vesting ends on October 15, 2026, cutting gross FIL issuance by about 75%.

On October 15, 2026, six years after Filecoin mainnet launched, the FIL vesting schedules for Protocol Labs and the Filecoin Foundation come to an end. This is the biggest change to FIL supply since launch. Until now, the two vesting streams released roughly 66.7 million FIL per year, and block rewards added about 21.7 million FIL. Once vesting ends, gross FIL issuance drops by around 75%, to about 22 million FIL a year from block rewards alone. Net supply will then depend on burns, collateral locking and sector pledges. The supply change comes as Filecoin Onchain Cloud and Fil One bring paid storage demand onchain to the decentralized storage network.
