TIA runs Celestia, a network that stores data for other chains: 982.14M coins circulate, 83% of all supply.

Sell pressure. In 90 days, 31.01M TIA of team and Foundation shares unlocked and 6.62M were minted for stakers. The team stream ends on Oct 30 2026.

Buy pressure. Almost nothing leaves: no buyback, no fee burn, only 500 TIA destroyed from one governance deposit.

1. Protocol inflation
~6.62M TIA

Celestia mints new TIA every block and pays it to stakers, with 2% going to the community pool. This year the rate is 2.32% of supply, or 26.87M TIA a year, about 73,500 a day. Supply measured at both ends of the window gives 6.62M new TIA. On Oct 31 2026 the rate steps down to 2.17%, so the next 90 days bring about 6.36M.

2. Vesting unlocks
~31.01M TIA

Two allocations still unlock a little every day. The core team share released 14.50M TIA in these 90 days and ends on Oct 30 2026, with about 2.19M left. The research and ecosystem share held by the Foundation released 16.52M and keeps going at about 183,500 a day until Oct 30 2027, with 69.48M still locked. Investor shares finished unlocking on Oct 30 2025. Next 90 days: about 18.70M.

checked · Oct 17 2026
3. Foundation + unscheduled unlocks
0

A 125.94M TIA reserve for future initiatives sits outside the circulating count with no release date, and we found no sale or payout from it in this window. A Foundation operating multisig went from 20.51M to 19.03M TIA, and the community pool holds 3.60M, but both are already counted as circulating, so their spending adds no new supply. No public evidence of release in window — monitored.

checked · Oct 17 2026
4. Long-term locked or bankruptcy
0

No bankruptcy estate, trustee or long lock holds TIA. The 43.45M TIA the Foundation bought back from an early investor in July 2025 was resold to new holders and finished unlocking in November 2025.

checked · Oct 17 2026
Buy pressure
1. Programmatic buyback
0

Nothing buys TIA back. A community plan to tie blob fees to TIA, including a possible partial fee burn, is still at the research stage and switches nothing on.

checked · Oct 17 2026
2. Protocol fee burn
0

Celestia does not burn fees. Blob fees, and the payments of the new Fibre service, go to validators and stakers.

checked · Oct 17 2026
3. Foundation buy
0

The Foundation's last purchase was the 43.45M TIA it bought from an early investor in July 2025, more than a year ago. Nothing in this window shows it buying.

checked · Oct 17 2026
4. New long-term lock
0

About 486.8M TIA is staked, down from 502.3M at the start of the window. Staked TIA still counts as circulating, so staking takes nothing out of the float.

checked · Oct 17 2026
5. Governance deposit burn
~0.5K TIA

On Oct 6 2026 a governance proposal was withdrawn by its author, and half of its 1,000 TIA deposit, 500 TIA, was destroyed. This is a one-off, so nothing is booked for the next 90 days.

TIA · Coin Demand

Two sides: how much people want TIA right now, and how much buying could come later.

Current demand2.5 / 2.5

It shows how hot TIA is right now. A better rank means more people are talking about it.

#15 · Oct 17 2026

Today, people are talking about TIA for two reasons:

  1. 1
    Celestia turned on Fibre, its biggest upgrade.

    On Oct 20 2026 Fibre went live on the Celestia mainnet with app version 10. Rollups can now send big data blobs, up to 128 MiB, straight to validators. People ask if this will bring more paying users to Celestia.

  2. 2
    TIA swung hard after the Eden launch.

    On Oct 16 2026 Celestia launched Eden, a fast test chain for AI agents that uses TIA for gas, and TIA jumped about 30% in a day. It then fell about 15% by Oct 18 2026 and trades near $0.56 now. People ask if Eden will keep its users or if the rally is over.

Celestia (TIA) supply: questions people ask

Is Celestia (TIA) inflationary or deflationary?

As of Oct 17 2026, Celestia (TIA) supply moves +2.55% in 90 days and +9.65% in a year, so TIA is inflationary. New TIA outweighs what is burned or bought back.

What is the TIA inflation rate in 2026?

Celestia (TIA) supply grows +9.65% over the next 12 months and +2.55% over the next 90 days (checked Oct 17 2026). That puts TIA #29 of 101 coins we track for new supply (#1 = the most new supply).

When is the next TIA token unlock?

The next Celestia (TIA) unlock we track is on Oct 30 2026: about 2.19M TIA, 0.22% of the TIA in circulation (Core team vesting ends (last of the day-by-day unlocks)). Checked Oct 17 2026.

Does Celestia burn or buy back TIA?

Not in a way that removes TIA today: nothing takes TIA off the market over the next 90 days (checked Oct 17 2026). Almost nothing takes TIA off the market: no fee burn and no buyback; only 500 TIA was destroyed from one governance deposit.

Where does new TIA supply come from?

In our count, about 25.1M new TIA reaches the market over the next 90 days (checked Oct 17 2026). How it works: Team and Foundation shares unlock every day, 31.01M TIA in 90 days, and the chain mints about 73,500 new TIA a day for stakers: 37.63M TIA in all.

How much TIA is in circulation?

Celestia (TIA) has about 982M coins in circulation as of Oct 17 2026; the next 90 days change that by +2.55% (+9.65% over a year).

Does TIA have more new supply than XDC, PYTH or ETHFI?

Over the next 90 days (checked Oct 17 2026): TIA +2.55%, XDC +0.09%, PYTH 0.00%, ETHFI +2.78%. TIA sits in the middle of these 4 coins.

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 →

How does MrNasDog judge every coin, and why is +2.55% shown in red?

We look at two things: supply and demand. Fewer new coins mean less selling pressure. We also show each coin's age, with a warning when it is younger than 1 year. Demand shows how much people want the coin. Price Drivers (Beta) are the 2 or 3 things that can move one coin's price that supply and demand miss. TIA supply grows +2.55% in the next 90 days, so it shows in red: more TIA reaches the market than is removed. Zero or falling supply is always green, any growth is red.

What do Watch TIA alerts cover?
