Supply calendars return to focus
Token unlocks are becoming a larger part of trader preparation as several high-profile projects approach new supply events. Markets are not reacting to unlocks uniformly; the impact depends on liquidity, holder composition, and whether demand can absorb additional float.
Communication shapes expectations
Projects that clearly explain vesting, treasury usage, and ecosystem incentives often face less uncertainty than teams that leave the market guessing. Even when unlocks are known in advance, weak communication can pressure sentiment.
Execution risk for newer tokens
Newer assets with concentrated ownership and shallow liquidity are most exposed to volatile repricing. Traders are watching whether unlock-related supply gets distributed gradually or arrives during already fragile market windows.
