What Will be the Impact on the Crypto Market?
The scale of a token unlock directly affects the crypto market. Larger unlocks, especially those exceeding 5% of the total supply, tend to trigger more pronounced price drops and heightened volatility.
A rise in available tokens could lower prices if demand doesn’t grow at the same rate, as it happened with the Pi coins. It can also shape the investor’s sentiment and market trend, depending on how the tokens are used, held, sold, or invested.
