Tokens and projects typically feature a variety of allocations, with some possessing over 10 allocations due to the absence of standardized naming conventions.

The TokenUnlocks Standard Allocation method simplifies token allocation by categorizing them into six specific groups based on purpose and beneficiaries. This enables efficient comparative analysis across multiple projects.

A TokenUnlocks' Tokenomics standard curates a chart for easy understanding and cross-project comparison of token allocations by grouping different names of allocations from various tokens into an easy-to-understand category.
