Team unlocks run until December. Fee buybacks barely dent them.
JTO governs the Jito network on Solana: 530.45M coins circulate, about half of the total. No new JTO can ever be minted.
Sell pressure. Investor and team unlocks added 33.46M JTO in 90 days, and the DAO's rewards budget paid out 4.31M. The day-by-day unlock ends on Dec 7 2026.
Buy pressure. Trading-fee JTO sent to the DAO treasury took 443,711 JTO off the market; none of it has been burned yet.
Net. Net, supply grows about 7.04% in 90 days and 4.11% next.
The power to create new JTO was switched off for good: the coin's mint has no authority left on-chain, so no one can ever print more. Supply can only stay the same or fall.
Investors (162.14M) and the core team (245M) got one third at the one-year cliff on Dec 7 2024. The other 271.43M unlocks evenly, about 371,820 JTO every day, until Dec 7 2026. That is 33.46M in these 90 days, and 21.94M more before it stops on Dec 7 2026.
The DAO's liquidity and rewards budget, run by the Foundation, paid out 4.0M JTO on Jul 13 2026 plus about 100,000 a month (Aug 6, Sep 2, Oct 2), and holds 13.74M more. Other tracked piles that did not move: the DAO treasury (209.87M), Foundation wallets (55.29M and 20.0M), the tokenomics team's vault (4.91M) and grant wallets. Next 90 days: about 300,000 in monthly rewards.
No estate, trustee or long lock is paying JTO out. The only lock that ends is the investor and team schedule above.
Since the JTX trading app opened in July, 80% of the JTO paid as trading fees goes straight to the DAO treasury: 443,711 JTO in these 90 days, with nothing taken out. The DAO voted to burn this share, but none has been burned yet. Fees fell from 256,334 JTO in August to 141,738 in September.
13.48M JTO has been burned in total, almost all in two burns by the tokenomics team (3.76M in Dec 2025 and 9.71M in Feb 2026). In these 90 days only tiny wallet clean-ups were burned, under 1,600 JTO.
The tokenomics team's vault (4.91M JTO) did not move in these 90 days, and the planned matching buybacks for Jul–Sep 2026 left no trace outside the float.
JTO deposited to vote (about 21.17M) can be taken back at any time and still counts as circulating, so it takes nothing off the market.
Two sides: how much people want JTO right now, and how much buying could come later.
This part is based on social media. It shows how hot JTO is right now. A better rank means more people are talking about it.
Today, people are talking about JTO for one reason:
On Oct 9 2026 Jito said Solana's Alpenglow upgrade is coming soon and asked validators to run its Jito-Solana v4.3.0 client. For a short time its BAM service will fall back to the standard Jito block engine, and no start date is set yet. People ask how Alpenglow will change the MEV tips that Jito earns.
Checked Oct 12 2026
By the law of supply and demand, Jito's long-run signal is negative (Oct 15 2026, score 3.5/10). New supply: +4.11% in the next 90 days. Demand: moderate (3/5). Jito's price drivers: 2 ▲ price up, 0 ▼ price down.
By Nov 15 2026, the SEC's final deadline to approve or reject it. A yes could bring more SOL into JitoSOL, which is still about half its 2025 peak but slowly rising since May 31 2026. New JTO supply (+4.11% in 90 days) likely stays the bigger weight. That leaves Jito's long-run signal at negative, by supply and demand.
Jupiter, on our numbers. On Oct 10 2026 Jupiter scores 8/10 with flat supply, while Jito scores 3.5/10 because +4.11% new JTO arrives in 90 days. Jito's demand (3/5) is close to Jupiter's (3.5/5), so supply is the real gap. For Jito, the supply-and-demand signal is negative right now.
Jito's signal is negative for now. Jito's signal would turn if new supply keeps arriving (+4.11% in 90 days), or demand falls from moderate. The next date on Jito's calendar: Nov 15 2026 — SEC final deadline.
Jito sits at 3.5/10 today (Oct 15 2026): supply 0.5/5, demand 3/5. One more year adds +4.01% to Jito's supply. Long-run signal: negative.
By the law of supply and demand, the better time to start a position in Jito is when its new supply is low, demand is high and its price drivers point up. Jito today: +4.11% new supply in 90 days (flooding), demand moderate (3/5), drivers 2 ▲ / 0 ▼.
Right now 3 things drive Jito's price (2 ▲, 0 ▼). ▲ JitoSOL size: Half the 2025 peak left; slowly rising since May 31 2026. ▲ BAM adoption: BAM runs about a third of Solana stake; growth slowed lately. • JitoSOL ETF: SEC must approve or reject the JitoSOL ETF by Nov 15 2026.
Side by side on Oct 15 2026: Jito at 3.5/10 with a negative signal, Bitcoin at 8.5/10 with a positive signal. By supply and demand, Jito is the weaker of the two.
Every answer here applies basic economic theory — the law of supply and demand — to this coin's data. It is not financial advice. How we read every coin →
We look at two things, half each: supply and demand. Fewer new coins mean less selling pressure. A meme coin scores 1.5 at most on supply: its team got its coins for free, so no new supply does not make it safe. We also show each coin's age, with a warning when it is younger than 1 year. Demand looks at how much people want the coin now and how much buying could come later. Price Drivers (Beta) are the 2 or 3 things that can move one coin's price that supply and demand miss; they have no score. JTO supply grows +4.11% in the next 90 days, so it shows in red: more JTO reaches the market than is removed. Zero or falling supply is always green, any growth is red.
