Where the schedule comes from
We work the dates out from Arbitrum’s own vesting rules, checked against these sources on November 9, 2026:
- Arbitrum Foundation docs: airdrop eligibility and distribution
- Arbitrum Foundation docs: token circulating supply
These allocations have no fixed release dates, so they are left out of the dates and the curve above:
- ArbitrumDAO treasurySpent by DAO vote3.53B35.3%
- On a published schedule64.7%
The docs give a four-year schedule with a one-year cliff; equal monthly amounts on the 16th through March 2027 are our reading of it.
Questions people ask
On or around November 16, 2026: 92.6M ARB, about 1.3% of the circulating supply, mostly to team and contributors.
About 463.2M ARB in 5 scheduled unlocks, worth about $83.5M at the November 9, 2026 price, plus about 75.0M ARB vesting continuously.
10.0B ARB by its vesting schedule, of which about 6.89B were circulating on November 9, 2026.
Not necessarily. Unlocked tokens can be sold, and large unlocks to investors and early contributors are watched for that reason, but recipients often hold or stake, and markets usually know the date well in advance.
