A wave of major token releases is set to hit the crypto market this week, with projects preparing to unlock more than $566 million worth of assets.
The data, shared by CoinGecko, arrives amid a fragile market rebound after weeks of heavy losses.
Large One-Time Token Releases to Hit the Market
Several projects are set to carry out significant single-token unlocks totaling more than $5 million. CoinGecko data shows that Hyperliquid (HYPE), Plasma (XPL), Jupiter (JUP), Kamino (KMNO), Optimism (OP), ZORA, Humanity Protocol (H), and SAHARA will lead this category.
Such one-time unlocks introduce a sudden rise in circulating supply. When demand does not expand at a similar pace, prices may face short-term downward pressure.
Alongside these one-time releases, several major networks will undergo daily linear token unlocks totaling more than $1 million. This group includes Solana (SOL), Official Trump (TRUMP), Worldcoin (WLD), Dogecoin (DOGE), ASTER, Avalanche (AVAX), Bittensor (TAO), Zcash (ZEC), and ETHFI.
Unlike single unlocks, linear distributions add tokens gradually. Although more predictable, this steady supply can still influence liquidity and market sentiment over the week.
Combined Weekly Unlock Value Crosses $566 Million
When viewed together, the total value of scheduled single and linear unlocks surpasses $566 million. This level of issuance adds another challenge for a market already working to stabilize after recent turbulence.
These unlocks come just as the crypto sector attempts to rebound from a substantial decline that erased more than $1 trillion in value since October 10.
Sentiment weakened further as expectations of a U.S. interest-rate cut in December declined. FedWatch Tool data now shows a 71.5% probability of a rate cut, down from nearly 90% earlier this month. This shift has contributed to cautious trading conditions across the market.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Edge Higher After Recent Lows
Despite these pressures, the two largest cryptocurrencies are showing tentative signs of recovery.
Bitcoin was up 0.91% at $87,040 at the time of writing, after briefly touching $80,600, its lowest level since April 11. Ethereum rose 0.6% to $2,842 after dipping to its lowest price in four months.
Nevertheless, both assets remain sensitive to broader market signals, especially as supply from token unlocks enters circulation.
