Huma Overview: Funding, Tokenomics & Claims
There are over 1,000 threads on Huma.
I’ve distilled the key points into one clear guide.
Read this before making any claims (going live soon) 👇🏼🧵→ What is Huma doing?
Huma is harnessing the power of blockchain and stablecoins to deliver real-time payments and instant liquidity. By doing so, it removes the high fees, delays, and sluggish fund releases typical of traditional finance (TradFi).
Their impact is already clear—with an annualized revenue of $7.75M, Huma is proving the model works.→ How much did Huma raise?
Backed by seasoned Silicon Valley veterans, Huma has raised over $40M, making it one of the top-funded projects on Solana.
Their latest round valued the project at $150M—2x the valuation of the community pre-sale.→ How can Huma offer such high yields?
Huma provides on-demand settlement liquidity—institutions pay 6–10 bps daily per transaction until repayment. These micro-fees compound fast, resulting in double-digit yields for liquidity providers.
P.S. They’ve hinted at even higher yields post-TGE. (More on that below 👀)→ Is Huma successful?
In just one year, Huma processed $4.2B in transaction volume.
For context: Ripple did $70B over 10 years—but most of Ripple’s revenue came from selling XRP, while Huma earns directly from transaction fees.
And this is just the beginning—Huma aims to bring a multi-trillion dollar market on-chain in the coming years.
Let me know if you want a version→ What is the utility of $HUMA?
$HUMA will function as both a utility and governance token within the ecosystem.
They’ve teased that stakers will earn extra Feathers for Season 2 and unlock the "Vanguard" role, which comes with higher APY and exclusive perks.
Stay tuned—more details coming soon.→ What do the $HUMA tokenomics look like?
Here’s the initial allocation breakdown:
- 🎁 Airdrop: 5%
- 💼 Investors: 20.6%
- 🧠 Team & Advisors: 19.3%
- 🏦 Protocol Treasury: 11.1%
- 🌱 LP & Ecosystem: 31%
- 📣 CEX & Marketing: 7%
- 💧 Market Making (MM): 4%
- 🔐 Pre-Sale: 2%
Well-balanced between growth, community, and long-term sustainability.
→ Can investors dump on us?
Nope. Both investors and team members face a strict 12-month lock-up—they won’t receive any tokens in the first year.
After that, tokens are released linearly each quarter over 3 years, preventing sudden sell-offs.
Also worth noting: 3 months post-TGE, 2.1% of the total supply is set aside for a second Airdrop—rewarding early supporters, not diluting them.→ Can investors dump on us?

2.1% of the total supply is reserved for a second Airdrop, set to drop three months after the TGE.
While exact criteria haven’t been confirmed, it will likely reward a mix of:
- 💧 LPs collecting Feathers
- 🔒 $HUMA stakers
Stay active, stay involved—Season 2 rewards are coming.
→ When will pre-sale participants receive their tokens?
JUP stakers and Huma OGs who bought $HUMA at a $75M FDV will have a 3-month vesting period.
After that, tokens can be claimed via Meteora.→ What do Kaito yappers get?
- 0.1% of the $HUMA supply is allocated to the top ~500 yappers based on mindshare over 30 days, 3 months, and 12 months.
- Another 0.1% is reserved for active participants in the Kaito ecosystem across Solana, DeFi, PayFi, and RWA sectors.
Claiming will go live in just a few hours!→ On which exchanges will $HUMA be listed?
$HUMA will be available on all major exchanges, including OKX, Binance, Bitget, Bybit, LBank, and BingX.
The listing goes live at 1 PM UTC—mark your calendars!→ What price could $HUMA reach?
Pre-trading on Mexc closed at $0.078 (implying a $780M FDV).
While pre-trading prices and real market prices often differ, the pre-market volume was already solid.
A more realistic estimate for $HUMA’s FDV could be in the $200M–$500M range.I see tokens and trading might be live already—though it’s unclear if that’s market makers or regular traders.
Don’t rush into DLMM until claims and everything else are fully settled.
