# BLAST prelaunch tokenomics

* If you LONG the prelaunch at $1, then you are longing at 1b FDV. If the FDV of BLAST is 5b on settlement, then your LONG position will be in a profit of $4 per contract traded.
* If you SHORT the prelaunch at $5, then you are shorting at 5b FDV. Suppose the supply of BLAST is 100b tokens, and it trades at $0.09 on settlement. Then its FDV will be 9b, and your SHORT position will be in a loss of $4 per contract traded.

**Examples**

* If the supply of BLAST is 1 billion:
  * a smooth transition into a vanilla perpetual will occur
    * the source of the Index Oracle will change
    * the funding parameters will change to that of vanilla perpetuals
* If the supply of BLAST is 100 billion:
  * a smooth transition into a vanilla perpetual that tracks 100 times the price of BLAST will occur
    * the source of the Index Oracle will change
    * the funding parameters will change to that of vanilla perpetuals
  * the product will be named **100xBLAST**
* If the supply of BLAST is **NEITHER** 1 billion NOR 100 billion:
  * all positions will close at the settlement price 24 hours after TGE.
  * a vanilla BLAST perpetual which tracks the token price will be launched separately.

**Settlement**

This is NOT the price of one token, unless the supply is 1b.

BLAST prelaunch perpetual is a market cap index which tracks the FDV of BLAST at launch in billions. Each contract is worth a billionth of the FDV (so FDV/1e9).

Then its FDV will be 9b, and your SHORT position will be in a loss of $4 per contract traded.
