> +
+In short, the initial supply of BSQ tokens was created to account for all the contributions to the Bisq project before the mainnet launch of the Bisq DAO.
+
+These contributions can be divided into 2 segments.
+
+1. _Before October 2017_
++
+In the early days of the project, before Bisq tracked compensation requests and voting results, Bisq collected donations. Over time, about 25 BTC was collected from 144 people. In October 2017, as part of the implementation of the <<dao/phase-zero#the-bsq-token,Phase Zero>> plan, it was decided that 2.5 BTC of the total would be distributed back to these past contributors as BSQ where each person would receive an amount proportional to their prior contributions.
++
+2. _After October 2017_
++
+In October 2017, the Phase Zero plan went into effect. Subsequent contributions to Bisq were https://github.com/bisq-network/compensation/issues[documented on GitHub^] and votes were cast https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xlXDswj3251BPCOcII-UyWlX7o7jMkfYBE-IZ5te5Ck[on this spreadsheet^] by stakeholders.
+
+The genesis BSQ distribution was the sum of both segments of past contributions.
+
+Ultimately, the genesis transaction issued https://explorer.bisq.network/[6,157,480 BSQ to 202 contributors^].

I made it 4 for now, but we can set the correct number when we know it.
