Safe is the smart account standard used for multi-sig security, mostly to add an extra layer of onchain MFA. The Safe smart account contracts are part of Safe{Core}, which is an account abstraction infrastructure to build apps using this same battle-tested account standard.

Safe is a non-custodial multi-sig wallet built on Ethereum and other adjacent blockchains. Safe  is a Gnosis spin-out founded by Lukas Schor, Dr. Christoph Simmchen, Richard Meissner, and Tobias Schubotz.

SAFE tokenholders own and govern the protocol. Safe's investors include 1kx, Tiger Global, A&T Capital, etc.

# Safe Maximum token supply Methodology

## 1. Overview

The Safe token supply maximum metric represents the theoretical maximum number of Safe tokens that can ever exist according to the protocol's tokenomics design. This is a fixed value of 1 billion tokens that was established at the token's launch on April 20, 2022. Unlike circulating supply metrics that change over time based on minting and burning activities, the maximum supply is a constant parameter that provides the upper bound for total token issuance.

## 2. Data sources

This metric relies on:
- **Protocol specifications**: Safe protocol's official tokenomics documentation defining the maximum supply cap
- **Token contract parameters**: Smart contract specifications that enforce the supply limit
- **Launch date records**: Official documentation of the Safe token launch date (April 20, 2022)

## 3. Step-by-step calculation

### Component A: Maximum supply definition
- **Purpose**: Establishes the fixed maximum supply value and launch date for Safe tokens
- **Logic**: Sets a hardcoded value of 1,000,000,000 tokens as the maximum supply, representing the theoretical upper limit of Safe tokens that can ever be created according to the protocol's design. The launch date is set to April 20, 2022 at 00:00:00 UTC, marking when this maximum supply limit became effective.
- **Key fields**: `token_supply_maximum` (1 billion tokens), `timestamp` (April 20, 2022), `timestamp_grain` (daily granularity)

### Final aggregation
- **Combining components**: No combination is needed as this is a single static value
- **Currency conversion**: Not applicable - this metric represents token quantity, not monetary value
- **Time aggregation**: Uses daily grain boundaries with a fill-forward strategy, meaning the same maximum supply value is reported for every day from the launch date forward
- **Final calculation**: The metric simply returns 1,000,000,000 as the maximum supply value for all dates from April 20, 2022 onward, creating a flat time series that represents the unchanging supply cap
