The token unlock (vesting) schedule for **SUI** is structured around scheduled events until the year 2030.
1. Next relevant unlock (May 1, 2025)**
- Date: May 1, 2025.
- **Unlocked tokens**: $317 million in SUI (equivalent to 0.88% of the total supply).
- Impact: This is the largest unlock among those scheduled for the week, with a value representing 2.72% of the current market capitalization of SUI. Increased price volatility is expected due to the entry of new tokens into circulation.
**2. Overall vesting schedule structure**
- **Current Progress**: 30.31% of the tokens have already been unlocked (3.03 billion SUI), while 1.85 billion are still locked (18.52% of the total value). The remaining 51.17% is untracked.
- **Upcoming highlighted events**:
- **April 24, 2025**: Unlock of 74.14 million SUI (~$254.24 million, 0.74% of the total supply).
- **May 2026 and May 2030**: Additional scheduled events, though without specific details in the outcomes.
- **Recipients**: Tokens are distributed among community reserves, staking subsidies, Series A/B investors, early contributors, and the Mysten Labs treasury.
**3. Historical events and context**
- **November 1, 2024**: 64.19 million SUI were unlocked (2.32% of the circulating supply), raising concerns about selling pressure.
- **September 2024**: Another unlock of 64.19 million SUI intended for investors and community reserves.
- **Network Growth**: Despite the unlocks, the SUI network has experienced a 55.59% increase in active accounts in 30 days (exceeding 160 million), which could counteract the impact of the additional supply.*4. Risks and Considerations**
- **Volatility**: Massive unlocks are often associated with price corrections, especially if demand does not absorb the new supply.
- **Market Context**: The price of Bitcoin (close to $93,500 as of April 29, 2025) could influence sentiment towards SUI. A bullish market could mitigate downward pressures.
- **Network Activity**: Growth in users and DeFi applications (like NAVI Protocol) could sustain the demand for SUI in the long term.
#AirdropSafetyGuide ## **5. Extended schedule until 2030**

- **Stake Subsidies**: 1.00 billion SUI with linear vesting over 84 months.
- **Series A/B**: Progressive release until 2026.
