YouBallin, the Solana-based SocialFi protocol igniting the “Talent ownership economy,” today confirmed the exact timing of its public $YBL token sale announcement: Thursday, November 13 at 11:00 AM EST.
YouBallin’s $YBL token has a total supply of 1 billion, with 38.2% (382 million) circulating at TGE and 15% (150 million) publicly unlocked. The platform replaces outdated monetization models through two-phase events: Legends—established creators and industry figures—select emerging Talent in Phase 1, while Fans vote in Phase 2 using $YBL. Its mobile-first design bridges 2.7 billion Web2 users into Web3, targeting a $100 billion+ addressable market across social, advertising, and live events by 2026.
“Until now, platforms took the profit while creators got exposure — $YBL gives them control and direct earnings,” said Chris Arakelian, CEO & Co-Founder of YouBallin, who led rebrands for Uber and Consensys/MetaMask. “The enthusiasm from creators has been massive. They want to cut out middlemen and connect directly with their fans.”
