📢 Weekly Unlock Digest | Jan 19-25, 2026
Market sentiment turned cautiously positive last week, led by BTC +5%, helping soften near-term unlock pressure.

Here’s what stood out in unlocks 🔓

Last 30D:

• $RIVER: Despite the highest emissions over the past 30 days, price surged 6x+. Notably, 96% of supply is held by the top 5 wallets, raising manipulation risk as liquidity remains thin.

Upcoming:

• $ZRO: Largest unlock this week by $ value, with the majority allocated to insiders.
• $PLUME: Largest unlock by % of circulating supply, with 100% team allocation entering circulation.
📅 Market Watch:

Short-term momentum may cushion volatility, but insider-heavy unlocks remain a key risk — especially if broader liquidity fades or sentiment reverses.

📢 Weekly Token Unlocks Digest | Feb 2–8, 2026

Markets stayed under pressure as concerns grew over a potential shift to a more hawkish Fed under Kevin Warsh.

Here’s what stood out in unlocks 🔓

• $HYPE: Largest unlock by $ value, yet price surged +30% WoW. HIP-3 launch, ATH volume & OI, plus Kraken listing helped offset supply concerns.

• $BERA: Highest unlock by % of circulating supply → weak post-TGE demand makes this a key downside risk. More than 177% of current supply set to unlock over the next year.

🧩 Tokenomics Update

• $OP: Optimism governance approved using 50% of Superchain revenue for $OP buybacks starting February, adding a new supply-offset narrative.

📅 Market Watch
