CARV is a Web3 infrastructure platform designed to offer a modular identity and data layer (IDL), primarily targeting the gaming and AI sectors. Founded in late 2021, CARV is dedicated to reshaping the way users interact with and control their data in decentralized environments.
CARV integrates with over 900 Web3 games and platforms, representing a significant portion of the Web3 gaming ecosystem, and has over 9.5 million registered users with 1.3 million daily active players. It aims to provide a decentralized system where users can truly own, control, and monetize their gaming and activity data.
At the heart of the platform is $CARV, the platform’s native utility token. Launched in October 2024, $CARV facilitates governance, participation, and rewards within the CARV ecosystem. The token allows holders to influence protocol upgrades, propose new features, and earn rewards by contributing to the platform’s decentralized infrastructure. Through play-to-earn models and staking opportunities, users are incentivized to engage with the platform while maintaining data ownership and privacy.
CARV also places strong emphasis on data privacy, allowing users to choose how their data is shared or monetized, empowering individuals in a landscape dominated by centralized entities. The platform’s long-term vision includes expanding its utility across various sectors, from GameFi to SocialFi, and it has secured major investments to support this mission. In 2024, CARV secured $10 million in Series A funding and launched a $50 million accelerator program, fueling its rapid growth.
The total supply of $CARV is set at 1,000,000,000 tokens, with the distribution and vesting schedule occurring over a four-year period following the Token Generation Event (TGE).
Below is the breakdown of the token allocation:
Half of the total token supply is allocated to Nodes & Community, which rewards users for their contributions to the project’s success. This includes incentivizing node operators, community members, and participants in CARV's decentralized activities. These tokens will be distributed through various reward mechanisms to ensure the community remains active and engaged.
Approximately 9% of the total supply is reserved for the Ecosystem & Treasury, which holds tokens for the long-term development and stability of the platform. These funds will be used to support the ongoing growth of the ecosystem, partnerships, and future initiatives.
Early-stage investors, including seed and strategic investors, are allocated 9.246% of the total supply. These investors have supported CARV from its inception and have committed to long-term participation in the project's growth and development.
Investors participating in Series A and subsequent fundraising rounds will receive 8.295% of the total token supply. This allocation is aimed at securing the necessary funding for scaling the project and expanding its reach in the Web3 ecosystem.
The founding team and advisors are allocated 19.459% of the total supply. These tokens are intended to reward the core contributors for their full-time commitment to building the project. Vesting schedules are in place to ensure long-term alignment with the project's success.
4% of the total supply is set aside to ensure sufficient liquidity for the $CARV token. This allocation is critical for providing market liquidity and supporting trading across various platforms and exchanges.
