Weekly cryptocurrency unlock report (August 19–25, 2025)
This week, a total of $437.6 million worth of tokens will be unlocked among 18 different altcoins in the cryptocurrency market. According to data provided by Tokenomist, this situation has the potential to increase short-term selling pressure, especially on projects with high unlocking levels.
Below you can find a detailed weekly analysis and potential market implications:
🚨 Mass unlocks (High level)
This category includes projects that unlock a large number of tokens at once. Percentages close to or exceeding 10% may create significant selling pressure on the price.
ZRO: $52.44 million (9.32% locked volume)
KAITO: $25.05 million (9.67% locked volume)
SOON: $11.49 million (17.81% locked volume)
📌 Analysis:
The #SOON project is experiencing a very high unlocking level of 17.81%. This may create a significant increase in token supply, creating strong selling pressure on the price. Unlocking levels for #ZRO and KAITO, which are close to 10%, suggest a risky outlook in the short term.
📉 Stepwise unlocks (Medium and Low level)
Unlocks in this category occur at lower percentages. However, due to the high overall value, price fluctuations should still be considered.
SOL: $92.65 million (0.09% volume)
TRUMP: $44.01 million (2.45% volume)
WLD: $35.78 million (1.98% volume)
TAO: $18.06 million (0.54% volume)
DOGE: $21.66 million (0.06% volume)
TIA: $14.10 million (0.98% volume)
AVAX: $16.75 million (0.17% volume)
SUI: $10.91 million (0.09% volume)
MORPHO: $13.77 million (2.18% volume)
ETHFI: $9.82 million (1.82% volume)
DOT: $8.95 million (0.15% volume)
IP: $13.20 million (0.80% volume)
JTO: $7.15 million (1.15% volume)
NEAR: $7.68 million (0.24% volume)
ENS: $7.86 million (0.93% volume)
📌 Analysis:
High-volume projects like SOL, AVAX, DOGE, and SUI have low opening percentages (below 0.1%), so selling pressure may be limited.
TRUMP, MORPHO, and WLD are tokens that investors should closely monitor, with opening percentages approaching or exceeding 2%.
Mid-cap projects such as MORPHO (2.18%) and ETHFI (1.82%) may particularly experience sharp waves of selling.
🔍 Overall market impact
High-risk tokens: SOON, KAITO, ZRO, TRUMP, MORPHO
The unlocking level for these projects ranges from 2% to 18%, and prices may fluctuate sharply.
The risk of selling pressure is quite high for short-term investors.
Relatively safe zone: SOL, AVAX, DOGE, SUI
The impact may be limited due to low unlocking levels.
Nevertheless, if the market is in a general downtrend, these tokens may also experience additional volatility.
Overall impact:
$437.6 million unlock may have a moderate impact on cryptocurrency market liquidity
Selling pressure will be particularly felt in altcoins with low volume.
📌 Conclusion
Investors should closely monitor the tokens SOON, KAITO, ZRO, TRUMP, and MORPHO this week.
Projects with high unlocking levels may experience short-term selling pressure and sharp price drops.
For large projects (SOL, AVAX, DOGE, SUI), even if the level is lower, there is still a risk of volatility due to overall volume.
It is strategically recommended to be prepared for the possibility of falling tokens with high unlocking levels during this period.
