Per-contract
sell pressureHow the Mechanics Work
- →When you buy: 50% of your payment goes to the CCV, which spreads buybacks over 30 days via Jupiter DCA
- →Vesting starts at purchase: Each contract begins its 5-year vesting schedule when you buy it — not before
- →Net effect: CCV buybacks are concentrated during active sales periods, while sell pressure is distributed gradually as each contract vests independently
Note: Market dynamics are complex. Token prices depend on many factors including overall market conditions, trading volume, and holder behavior. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
