On-chain data shows the unlocking of a massive $257.64 million worth of tokens this week across several high-profile projects. This includes ARB ($96.26M), ID ($43.35M), ADA ($41.5M), APE ($25.27M), ENA ($13.47M), and PIXEL ($13.21M). These unlocks release previously locked-up tokens into circulation, possibly affecting market dynamics.
ARB leads the pack, unlocking 2.26% of its circulating supply worth $96.26M. The ID token stands out, with 18.23% of its circulating supply, valued at $43.35M, coming into the market—the highest proportion among all tokens listed. However, Cardano’s ADA releases $41.5M, representing only 0.10% of its supply, showing a smaller relative impact.
Also contributing to this week’s unlock are APE ($25.27M) and PRIME ($11.24M), with their unlocked supply mainly going to founders, community incentives, foundation funds, and strategic partnerships.
Understanding the Impact of Token Unlocks
Token unlocks make up different percentages of each token’s circulating supply, signaling potential shifts in liquidity and market sentiment. For ARB and ID, the large percentages could increase selling pressure, while ADA’s unlock—a smaller proportion—might have little price impact.
