Over $150 million worth of tokens will be released across five projects, representing up to 20% of the circulating supply.
TRUMP, WLD, SOSO, IOTA, and RESOLV unlocks may lead to near-term price swings amid market uncertainty.
The impact of each unlock will depend on market sentiment, liquidity levels, and current price action around release time.
A wave of significant token unlocks is expected to hit the cryptocurrency market, with over $150 million worth of assets scheduled for release. This development involves five high-profile projects: TRUMP, Worldcoin (WLD), SOSO, IOTA, and RESOLV. Each of these will unlock substantial portions of their total token supply, with percentages ranging up to 20%. These unlocks, considered part of scheduled distribution mechanisms, have the potential to influence price action and overall liquidity across exchanges.
TRUMP ($4.24M Unlock Scheduled)
The TRUMP token is due to release approximately $4.24 million worth of tokens, one of the biggest of the upcoming unlocks. The release is a major percentage of its circulating supply, which can generate short-term selling pressure.
Even though its price action has been volatile, the added supply may dilute value unless demand catches up. However, in politically-timed or event-driven cycles, TRUMP names have shown spectacular momentum reversals. Analysts are looking for whether the unlock coincides to occur with some broad geopolitical update or news report that can oppose supply-side pressure.
Worldcoin (WLD) — $4.10M Unlock
Worldcoin (WLD) is scheduled to unlock approximately $4.10 million in tokens, maintaining its trend of frequent, high-value unlock events. Worldcoin operates in a high-visibility ecosystem, and previous unlocks have often led to short-lived corrections followed by market stabilization. Still, the frequency and size of these releases remain a concern among investors. With its growing user base and controversial biometric onboarding model, the WLD unlock adds uncertainty around whether current liquidity can absorb the new supply efficiently. Traders remain cautious, especially given the project's already sizable circulating token count.
SoSoValue(SOSO) ($3.37M Unlock)
SOSO is preparing to release $3.37 million worth of tokens, representing a high double-digit percentage of its available supply. Given the project's smaller market capitalization, this unlock could disproportionately affect short-term price performance. SOSO has previously seen volatile reactions during similar events, with sharp intraday declines. The token's liquidity depth will be a critical factor in determining its resilience. Analysts note that unless strong demand matches the new supply, SOSO could face heightened sell pressure in the near term.
IOTA(IOTA )— $2.78M Unlock
The IOTA protocol is an old project in the crypto space and will free $2.78 million of imprisoned tokens. IOTA, while mature, still has a relatively active base that monitors token releasing very tightly. This is a modest supply boost on circulating supply. IOTA's action on the market throughout unlocks has been variable in the past, with gradual rather than sudden price action. The long-term holders of the project will most likely be holding positions, and that can reduce the effect. However, under current market conditions, even small increases in circulating supply can have huge fluctuations.
Resolv(RESOLV) — $2.47M Unlock
RESOLV fills out the remaining lineup with a future unlock worth $2.47 million, relatively lower in dollar terms but potentially large based on its low liquidity and limited market exposure. As a less widely traded token, RESOLV is more exposed to price volatility, especially if a high percentage of unlocked tokens hit the open market in the short term. Analysts are especially mindful of the token's exchange visibility and trading volume, as both will not be favorable to a sudden influx of new supply without price interruption.
