The OORT ecosystem has reached a pivotal moment in its tokenomics journey as the project confirmed the completion of its Q2 2025 token burn and prepared for its final major $OORT token unlock.
With these milestones, the Foundation says it is looking to usher in a new phase of stability, predictability, and long-term growth for the digital asset.
Final major unlock marks turning point
In its latest update, the OORT team announced that the upcoming token unlock will be the last significant scheduled release of $OORT into circulation.
The event represents a key moment for the project, as early investor and contributor allocations will be mostly distributed.
After this release, the token’s unlock schedule will transition to a slower pace, with just six million tokens unlocking each quarter over the next 2.5 years.
According to the Foundation, this phased approach is designed to reduce any lingering concerns about a sudden increase in supply and the potential sell pressure that large unlocks often create in crypto markets.
Importantly, the update emphasised that early investors remain aligned with OORT’s overall objectives.
There have been no signs of coordinated selling, which can destabilise a token’s price.
Instead, the Foundation has pledged to continue taking measures aimed at supporting both the $OORT economy and community confidence.
Q2 token burn completed
Alongside the unlock update, OORT announced the successful completion of its Q2 2025 token burn.
A total of 4,000,000 OORT tokens were permanently removed from circulation, representing an approximate value of $116,000 in USDT at the time of burning.
This latest removal brings the total number of tokens burned in 2025 so far to 6.771 million.
Token burns are a critical part of OORT’s long-term supply management strategy, designed to combat inflationary pressures and support the asset’s value over time.
By reducing circulating supply while maintaining healthy ecosystem growth, the Foundation aims to create structural conditions that reward users and long-term participants alike.

Building predictability into the token economy
The combination of a final large unlock and a consistent burn program is expected to lay the foundation for more predictable token dynamics. The OORT team outlined several anticipated outcomes:
- Reduced inflation risk, as fewer new tokens enter circulation in large batches.
- Lower sell pressure, easing concerns for holders wary of sharp supply-driven price swings.
- Greater stability, strengthening conditions for sustainable growth and utility.
These measures come as OORT expands its ecosystem, including initiatives such as DataHub, Deimos nodes I and II, and the Olympus L1 platform, which serve as core pillars of its decentralised infrastructure.
Future priorities
Looking ahead, the Foundation highlighted several priorities.
These include expanding DataHub task availability to boost user participation and rewards, further strengthening infrastructure across the ecosystem, and driving token utility through deeper integration and adoption.
The team reaffirmed its focus on transparency, sustainability, and responsible supply management.
With early distribution milestones now largely behind it, OORT is seeking to move beyond token unlock anxieties toward a more stable operating phase, one it hopes will foster long-term trust and participation from its global community.
As the project enters this next chapter, OORT will be closely watched as an example of how structured supply management and ecosystem-driven utility can shape a token economy’s trajectory.
