A wave of new token unlocks is starting from August 11 and will continue to August 18th. This will likely affect the market by changing the supply dynamics. Usually, large token unlocks tend to cause sharp, short-term price fluctuations and increased trading volume, and it can also lead to extreme price volatility.

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.
