What is Velvet Capital (VELVET)?

Velvet Capital is a DeFAI (DeFi + AI) operating system for on-chain research, trading, and portfolio management. Velvet Capital runs a live app across BNB Chain, Base, Ethereum, Solana, and Sonic, serving 100k+ users. The flagship product, Velvet Unicorn, is a multi-agent AI co-pilot that executes natural-language research and intent-based trades across 20+ chains. VELVET is classified as a token on BNB Chain (BSC), not a native coin, with a fixed max supply of 1,000,000,000.

How does Velvet Capital fit the DeFAI category?

DeFAI combines decentralized finance with AI agents that research, analyze, and execute on-chain actions autonomously. Velvet Capital builds a DeFAI operating system where AI agents handle wallet-level tasks — research, analytics, and intent-based trade execution. Velvet Unicorn assigns agent roles framed as CEO, Researcher, Analyst, and Trader. DropsTab classifies VELVET under DeFAI, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and BNB Chain Ecosystem categories.

What is VELVET token used for?

VELVET is the governance and fee-sharing token of Velvet Capital. Holders stake VELVET into veVELVET to gain governance voting rights and a share of platform revenue. Per Velvet Capital docs, 50% of platform fees are swapped into VELVET and distributed to veVELVET stakers, while the remaining 50% flows to the DAO Treasury. A separate ecosystem token, Velvet Unicorn (VU on Virtuals), acts as an "AI gas" token and is a distinct contract from VELVET.

How does veVELVET staking work?

veVELVET is the staked form of VELVET that grants governance and fee-sharing rights. Stakers lock VELVET into veVELVET to vote on governance and earn protocol revenue. Velvet Capital swaps 50% of all platform fees into VELVET and pays that to veVELVET holders. The fee-distribution and revenue-sharing design carries evolving regulatory exposure typical of revenue-sharing tokens, though Velvet Capital asserts no securities classification publicly.

What is VELVET's total supply and token allocation?

VELVET has a fixed maximum supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens, with total supply equal to max supply and no inflation beyond vesting. Team & Advisors hold 20% (200M) and Early Backers hold 14.9% (149M) — a combined ~35% insider allocation that concentrates supply among a small group. Foundation Treasury holds 18.3% (183M) and Ecosystem & Community holds 17.5% (175M). The VELVET contract is verified on-chain at 0x8b194370825e37b33373e74a41009161808c1488.

How should investors read VELVET's vesting and unlock schedule?

VELVET's vesting concentrates sell-pressure risk around mid-2026. Velvet Capital held its TGE on 2025-07-10 via the Binance Wallet Sale, tracking 14 allocations across 97 scheduled unlock events per DropsTab vesting data. Team & Advisors and Early Backers — the two largest insider buckets at ~35% combined — carry a ~1-year cliff beginning ~2026-07-10. That cliff expiry marks the first major supply overhang, after which sizable monthly emissions begin and the Team tail runs to ~2029-07-10.

Who are the investors behind Velvet Capital?

Velvet Capital raised $3.7M in a Strategic round led by YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs) and Blockchain Founders Fund. DropsTab fundraising data tracks 3 rounds at a token price of ~$0.43937. The syndicate included Rarestone Capital, Selini Capital, DWF Ventures, Poolz, PAKA, and Gate Labs. YZi Labs entered twice — first through the 2022 MVB Accelerator co-led by BNB Chain, then the 2025 Strategic round — a strong Tier-1 backer signal.

What does Velvet Capital's fundraising signal about project maturity?

Velvet Capital's fundraising signals Tier-1 validation with distributed ownership. The $3.7M Strategic round drew a broad syndicate rather than one dominant holder, and no single VC is publicly disclosed as holding >20% of supply. YZi Labs' repeat backing across 2022 and 2025 indicates sustained conviction from a Tier-1 fund. Velvet Capital launched a live, revenue-generating product before TGE, distinguishing Velvet Capital from pre-product token raises.

Is VELVET (VELVETUSDT) listed on Binance Futures?

VELVET trades as a VELVETUSDT USDⓈ-Margined perpetual futures contract on Binance Futures, listed ~2025-07-15. The same perpetual is also live on MEXC futures. On spot, VELVET trades across multiple Tier-1 and Tier-2 CEXs including Gate, Bitget, KuCoin, MEXC, BingX, and Kraken (VELVET/USD). The split is CEX-dominant with Binance-listed perpetuals, so liquidity risk is low relative to DEX-only tokens.
