# How it works

The first $KWIC Token distribution will end exactly 24 months after NFTs start to accumulate $KWIC Tokens, this date has yet to be announced. The $KWIC Tokens that are not claimed or that are spent within the KWIC ecosystem after the first 24 month distribution has ended, will be recycled as below.

* 10% will be absorbed by KWIC
* 90% will be redirected in the following ways [activity-and-infrastructure-spending](https://keyboardwarriorsinternetcafe.gitbook.io/kwic-token-paper/economy-stimulus/activity-and-infrastructure-spending "mention"), [token-burn](https://keyboardwarriorsinternetcafe.gitbook.io/kwic-token-paper/economy-stimulus/token-burn "mention") & [remodelled-staking](https://keyboardwarriorsinternetcafe.gitbook.io/kwic-token-paper/token-cycle/remodelled-staking "mention") rewards.

KWIC will absorb 10% of the collected supply after the 24 month distribution plan has been completed. This becomes part of the $KWIC Token supply that is owned by KWIC.\
\
The other 90% will then be distributed back into the economy using the split mentioned above. This means that KWIC will slowly build up a pool of tokens that can be used to entice new and existing users to be involved in the ecosystem. This is a double benefit because it rewards those who participate, whilst still rewarding those that got in early.\
\
Getting this right, there will be considerable desire for people to use their $KWIC Tokens for spending on what's mentioned above, from which we can perform the Token Cycle.
