I am trying to understand how tokenomics works for cosmos SDK on an industry standard. I have a few questions related to token allocation and account types in Cosmos SDK-based blockchains in general about what the industry standard is:

  1. Token Allocation:
  • When distributing an initial token supply across multiple accounts, is it necessary to split the tokens into separate accounts? How does the industry work?

  • For example, if there is a total of 10 million tokens to be allocated to three accounts (A, B, and C) with distribution percentages of 40%, 50%, and 10% respectively, should the tokens be explicitly split among these accounts? Or can this be done in another way?

  1. Account Types:
  • If the tokens allocation requires separate accounts, can it be a normal account with a mnemonic? or special accounts such as clawback Vesting Accounts, or Normal Vesting Accounts?
  1. Implementation:
  • Is it preferable to implement this token allocation through a shell script, or is it better to use a Go-based approach like genAccounts.go?
  • If there is a specific method recommended by the Cosmos SDK community for this kind of setup, could you please share some examples?
  1. Governance and Proposals:
  • Does adding new accounts or modifying existing ones in genesis.json require a governance proposal?
  • If so, could you explain the process for getting such changes approved through governance?

If you could guide us with the help of any documentation/material regarding tokenomics would be appreciated.
