đ¨ Over $620M Token Unlock Tsunami Set to Crush Crypto Markets This Week
Get ready for a seismic shift in crypto liquidity as massive token unlocks prepare to flood the market.
The Unlock Mechanism: How It Works
Projects release previously vested tokens into circulationâadding sell pressure that often tanks prices. This week's unlocks represent one of the largest concentrated dumps we've seen all year.
Market Impact: Brace for Volatility
Historically, major unlock events trigger immediate selling from early investors looking to cash out. The $620M injection could test market depth and resilience across multiple major tokens.
Timing Is Everything
With markets already nervous about macro conditions, this week's unlocks couldn't come at a worse timeâbecause nothing says 'healthy market' like scheduled, predictable dilution events that would make traditional finance bankers blush with envy.
Key Cliff Unlocks
Several high-profilewill occur between August 25 and September 1, each exceeding $5 million in value. Among the largest:
- SUI: 44M tokens worth $159M (1.25% of supply)
- JUP: 53.5M tokens worth $27M (1.78% of supply)
- OP: 31.3M tokens worth $24M (1.90% of supply)
- KMNO: 229M tokens worth $14M (6.81% of supply)
- HUMA: 338M tokens worth $9.8M (23.38% of supply)
- SOPH: 268M tokens worth $8.7M (12.94% of supply)
- ALT: 240M tokens worth $8.4M (6.01% of supply)
- REZ: 449M tokens worth $6.1M (11.36% of supply)
These events often create selling pressure, as large allocations â many from early investors or team reservesâenter circulation at once.
Linear Unlocks to Watch
In addition to cliff releases, projects with daily unlock schedules will contribute steady supply over the week. Notable examples include:
- Solana (SOL): $103M (0.09% of supply)
- TRUMP: $42M (2.45% of supply)
- Worldcoin (WLD): $36M (1.98% of supply)
- Dogecoin (DOGE): $22M (0.06% of supply)
- TAO: $18M (0.54% of supply)
- Morpho (MORPHO): $18M (2.18% of supply)
ETHFI, AVAX, DOT, ENS also add tens of millions collectively

Market Impact
Analysts warn that unlock periods can trigger volatility, particularly when token liquidity is thin or investor sentiment is cautious. Still, not all unlocks lead to immediate sell-offs-some projects use vesting events to drive new staking, ecosystem grants, or liquidity programs.
With a combined $620M in supply pressure, the coming week will test whether traders absorb the new tokens or brace for sharper corrections.
