Locked Tokens Leave Crypto Investors With 50% Losses Amid Market Distrust
Crypto investors who pinned hopes on locked tokens are facing brutal losses. Data reveals a 50% average decline in value against over-the-counter pricing between May 2024 and April 2025, exacerbating skepticism toward new blockchain ventures.
The impending unlock of $40 billion in altcoins looms as a potential market stressor. This glut of supply could further depress prices, creating a Darwinian environment where only projects with robust fundamentals and organic demand will survive.
Market analysts observe a flight to quality, with capital concentrating around established networks rather than speculative token locks. The trend reflects growing institutional influence in crypto asset valuation.
