The Fuse Ember Node Sale is officially live on https://www.fuse.io/node-sale
This marks an important step in Fuse’s journey as we prepare for the migration to Layer 2 (L2), powered by Polygon CDK, with support from key infrastructure partners like QuickNode and Avail. The node sale will strengthen governance, improve tokenomics, and support Fuse’s long-term growth.
This node sale is designed to establish a new governance structure ahead of the L2 migration starting in April. It also introduces changes to Fuse’s tokenomics to support long-term sustainability and incentivize active participation in the network.
42 million Fuse tokens from the Fuse Foundation treasury have been allocated to provide yield for node operators over the next three years, ensuring consistent rewards while securing the network.
Key Tokenomics Updates
As part of the Fuse Ember Node Sale, we’re introducing fundamental changes to Fuse’s tokenomics, designed to create a more sustainable, deflationary, and growth-oriented economy. Here’s the story behind these changes:
Over the past few months, we’ve re-evaluated how Fuse’s economic model can better serve long-term holders and the future of the network. This led to three major decisions:
- Setting a Max Supply Cap: For the first time in Fuse’s history, we’ve introduced a maximum supply cap of 400 million FUSE. This ensures predictability, scarcity, and long-term value for holders, eliminating concerns about uncontrolled token inflation.
- Eliminating Inflation: Since 2019, Fuse had a 5% annual inflation rate—a common mechanism in many blockchain networks. However, we believe the future of Fuse doesn’t rely on inflation-driven growth. So, we’ve officially reduced the inflation rate from 5% to 0%, making Fuse a fully deflationary asset moving forward.
- Rewarding Node Operators from Treasury Funds: To support the next three years of network growth, we’re allocating 42 million FUSE tokens from the Fuse treasury to fund node operator rewards. This approach ensures that rewards are backed by existing supply, rather than new token emissions—further reinforcing the deflationary model.
Our closed presale has successfully concluded with participation from major long-term holders, including Collider Ventures, Tectona, Spark, Aleph, TRGC, and Blockchain Founders Fund.
Notably, presale participants could only invest using FUSE tokens, effectively removing a significant portion of the circulating supply. This strategic move reduces sell pressure and strengthens Fuse’s tokenomics as we transition to the new L2 network.
🚫 No VC Unlocks: Unlike many projects, there are no future unlocks that could dilute token value.
📉 Reduced Circulating Supply: With treasury-backed rewards and presale supply absorption, Fuse’s circulating supply is tighter than ever.
🔒 Deflationary Model: No inflation, capped supply, and sustainable rewards—all designed for long-term growth.
