With a slate of large-scale token unlocks on the horizon, some warn that supply overhang in the crypto market could intensify again in the near term.

According to data from Tokenomist cited by Wu Blockchain on the 19th (local time), multiple one-off large token unlocks (exceeding $5 million) are scheduled over the next seven days. Tokens included are Bitget Token (BGB), LayerZero (ZRO), River (RIVER), Plume (PLUME), Humanity Protocol (H), UDS (UDS), Plasma (XPL), MultiBank Group (MBG), SoSoValue (SOSO), SOON (SOON), and Anime (ANIME).

Over the same period, linear token unlocks exceeding $1 million per day are also expected to continue. Key tokens include Rain (RAIN), Solana (SOL), River (RIVER), Official Trump (TRUMP), Worldcoin (WLD), Dogecoin (DOGE), Avalanche (AVAX), and Aster (ASTER). Because linear unlocks continuously add new supply to the market over a set period, they can act as a cap on prices.

The total unlock amount over the next seven days, combining both one-off and linear unlocks, was tallied at more than roughly $1.054 billion. Market participants note that one-off unlocks can amplify short-term volatility, while linear unlocks can translate into medium-term supply pressure—suggesting vigilance is warranted over supply-demand dynamics in major altcoins.
