Learn How to Take Advantage of Upcoming Unlocks

Token unlock means the release of previously restricted (locked) coins into circulation. Multiple crypto projects have laid out plans to periodically release previously locked tokens to the open market. This routinely happens to prevent early investors from selling all their holdings at once.

Such unlocking events normally increase market supply and may lower token prices due to increase of tokens made available for trading. Despite these dynamics, the unlock events are crucial as they bring stability in the market and give traders access to previously locked tokens.

As the data highlighted the major upcoming token unlocks, knowing when coins are about to be released can help trader anticipate potential price volatility. Understanding how to handle token release events can help traders minimize risks and capitalize on opportunities. However, this needs strategic preparations and research.

Not all unlocking events trigger price drops. Projects with strong fundamentals, a committed development team, and enthusiastic community engagement can swallow the increased supply without causing adverse price movements.

Investors need to plan for their trades depending on the unlocking schedules. Waiting for a suitable market entry can be helpful if a token release is anticipated to trigger a price fall. Also, early positioning can be beneficial if a release indicates project growth.
