Altcoin Unlock Alert: KAITO, MURA, and MOCA Brace for Major Supply Shifts
Token unlocks incoming—and the market’s about to feel the pressure. Three altcoins are gearing up for supply shocks that could shake their price action. Here’s what you need to watch.
KAITO, MURA, and MOCA: The Unlock Trio
These projects are set to flood the market with fresh tokens. Will demand keep up? History says buckle up for volatility—especially when VCs get their first chance to dump bags in months.
The Cynic’s Corner
Another day, another ‘strategic unlock’—because nothing says decentralization like timed investor exits. Stay sharp out there.
Near-term unlocks
The first majoron the radar is FTN, where 94% of supply is already circulating. With a market cap of $1.97 billion and volume above $91 million (2.08%), the token is relatively mature. Upcoming small releases are unlikely to heavily impact price.
TRIBL remains stable at $0.003465 with 70.2% of tokens released. Its low daily volume of $33,000 makes it vulnerable to sharp moves when additional tokens hit the market.
Mid-tier unlocks approaching
EIGEN trades at $1.40 with a $448.88 million cap, but its release schedule is still unclear. Only 322.62 million tokens circulate, and an upcoming unlock in 1 day 22 hours could be a key short-term volatility driver.
IOTA sits at $0.209 with 78.8% of its 3.96 billion supply unlocked. A 2-day, 3-hour unlock may release more liquidity, although the token’s established market cap of $828 million suggests it can absorb moderate new supply.
KAITO has one of the most significant upcoming events: just 24.1% of its 1 billion tokens are circulating. With a market cap of $268 million and volume of $25.9 million (8.82%), the 2-day 15-hour unlock is expected to significantly increase supply, potentially pressuring price in the NEAR term.

Heavier unlocks ahead
MOCA ($0.073, $263 million cap) has 42.8% supply circulating with its next major unlock in 4 days. Its low daily trading volume of $177,000 makes it especially sensitive to new token releases.
MURA, in contrast, is already 91% unlocked, reducing dilution risk. Its $5.01 billion market cap and steady trading base make the 5-day unlock less impactful compared to peers.
VELO remains highly inflationary, with 17.56 billion tokens in circulation and future unlocks stretching over multiple years. With a $281 million market cap and weak price action (-2.19%), supply growth remains its biggest challenge.
VENOM ($0.161, $338 million cap) has only 31.7% of its 2.1 billion tokens unlocked, leaving significant future supply to hit the market. Its next release in 7 days 11 hours could test liquidity conditions.
FET ($1.86 billion cap) is 78.9% unlocked, with the next scheduled release in 10 days. With $2.14 million in daily volume, the market appears positioned to absorb modest dilution.
Outlook
Upcoming unlocks for KAITO and MOCA are the most likely to trigger short-term volatility due to low circulating supply and thin liquidity. In contrast, higher-maturity tokens like MURA and FET appear better positioned to weather future releases. Traders are watching these events closely as tokenomics continue to drive price action across mid-cap altcoins.
