# How Rewards Are Shared The **total** [**Rewards Pool**](/impossible-futures-a-guide/how-it-works-for-backers/rewards-pool.md) comprised of **up t**o **1.5 million** Autonomi tokens**.** * The size of the pool depends on how much Autonomi tokens is locked overall * As more Autonomi token is committed, more reward tokens are unlocked incrementally. The pool is split among **backers of projects that successfully deploy by 21 August 2025**. Your reward is calculated based on the percentage of total [Pledge Points](/impossible-futures-a-guide/how-it-works-for-backers/pledge-points-explained.md) you contributed, across all deployed projects. It **doesn’t matter which specific projects you backed**, as long as they deployed — your Pledge Points from all qualifying apps are added together to calculate your share. {% hint style="info" %} If you backed to a project that doesn’t deploy, those points are excluded from the reward calculation, and won’t count toward your share. But **you still get your locked Autonomi tokens back** after 12 Months, on the 13th June 2026. {% endhint %} The **USDC cash prizes** (for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place) are split among backers who pledged to those specific apps **during Week 1**, based on the **percentage of Pledge Points** they contributed to that app. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
