The crypto market anticipates a substantial influx of assets in April, with over $1.7 billion worth of tokens slated for release. Notable among these are Aptos, Axie Infinity, Arbitrum, and Ronin tokens.
Token unlocks have gained traction as a strategy to gradually introduce locked assets into the market over a predefined timeframe. Proponents argue that this method aligns incentives among project investors and stakeholders. However, it frequently leads to short-term volatility and price dips.
