Tokenomics & On-chain

What is a token unlock and how does it affect price?

A token unlock is the scheduled release of previously locked tokens, such as those held by teams, early investors, or the treasury, into circulation. Unlocks increase circulating supply, which can add selling pressure if recipients choose to sell, though the price impact depends on demand and whether the market already anticipated the release. For example, a large unlock that doubles circulating supply may weigh on price if buying interest is thin. Tracking unlock schedules helps you understand the structural supply changes ahead rather than reacting after the fact.
