- Major token unlocks set for May 2025 impacting markets.
- Potential price fluctuations anticipated due to liquidity changes.
- Increased scrutiny on projects with heavy unlock schedules.
Cliff and linear token unlocks are drawing attention from market participants. The presence of large token releases has traditionally led to increased price fluctuations, particularly when a notable share of a project’s total supply is released.
The scheduled releases include Solayer with $86.73 million involving 27.02M tokens and Ethena at $49.52 million involving 171.88M tokens. Such activities often lead to increased selling pressure, affecting token values.
Financial markets are closely observing potential liquidity and value shifts. Tokens like LAYER and SPEC see important events with the largest increases, likely affecting their valuations. Moreover, projects such as Solana and Polkadot exhibit substantial daily unlocks contributing further market stress.
Historical data reflects risks associated with these unlocks, including possible declines in the total value locked on related protocols and amplified volatility due to enhanced supply proportions. These outcomes may affect newer, less liquid tokens like MOVE and SPEC.
Experts like Wu Blockchain highlight the significance of these events, which involve projects like KAS and NEON. The market is without direct comments from project heads, yet the community remains aware and anticipates potential outcomes.
Additionally, significant linear unlocks (daily unlocks exceeding $1 million) are expected for SOL, WLD, TIA, DOGE. – Wu Blockchain, Analyst, Wu Blockchain
