Coinspeaker Cheelee and Worldcoin Lead in Upcoming $730M Token Unlock Wave
A major wave of token unlocks, valued at over $730 million, is set to hit the crypto market this week, with Cheelee (CHEEL) leading the cliff-based unlocks and Worldcoin WLD $3.37 24h volatility: 9.4% Market cap: $2.54 B Vol. 24h: $724.08 M dominating the linear schedule.

Notably, cliff-based unlocks are a type of token unlock schedule where a large number of tokens are released simultaneously, typically after a predetermined period of time. This period is referred to as the “cliff”.
Apart from Cheelee and Aptos, notable cliff-based releases include Cardano ADA $1.11 24h volatility: 7.6% Market cap: $39.83 B Vol. 24h: $2.11 B , with 37.06 million tokens worth $43.36 million, representing just 0.10% of its supply, and SEI, which plans to release $55.80 million in tokens. Smaller but impactful unlocks include BGB BGB $2.52 24h volatility: 3.0% Market cap: $3.54 B Vol. 24h: $197.90 M (worth around $14.46 million) and AXS AXS $8.50 24h volatility: 7.5% Market cap: $1.32 B Vol. 24h: $165.86 M (worth around $7.54 million), each contributing to the diverse landscape of token activity.
Worldcoin Leads Linear Token Unlock
On the linear unlock front, Worldcoin (WLD) emerges as a key player, with plans to release 37.23 million tokens valued at $136.25 million, making up 5.04% of its circulating supply. This positions WLD ahead of Solana SOL $226.8 24h volatility: 3.7% Market cap: $108.14 B Vol. 24h: $5.62 B , which has consistently led linear unlocks but now plans a comparatively smaller release of $121.36 million, impacting just 0.11% of its supply.
The trend extends to altcoins like TIA TIA $7.63 24h volatility: 7.9% Market cap: $3.40 B Vol. 24h: $335.95 M (worth around $56.95 million) and DOGE DOGE $0.43 24h volatility: 5.6% Market cap: $63.53 B Vol. 24h: $8.99 B (worth around $44.01 million), which continue to dominate mid-tier linear unlock schedules. Avalanche AVAX $49.50 24h volatility: 3.7% Market cap: $20.29 B Vol. 24h: $1.06 B and NEAR NEAR $7.11 24h volatility: 6.5% Market cap: $8.68 B Vol. 24h: $721.40 M are also noteworthy, with releases valued at $36.59 million and $23.16 million, respectively.
Notably, linear unlock refers to a mechanism where cryptocurrencies are released gradually over a specified period, typically in a linear fashion.
Smaller Projects Make Their Mark
Emerging projects also feature prominently in this unlock cycle. Sipher (SIPHER) leads with 15.6 million tokens, valued at $2.07 million, representing 1.56% of its locked supply. ChainGPT CGPT $0.20 24h volatility: 10.6% Market cap: $153.89 M Vol. 24h: $7.39 M and Ordify (ORFY) are also unlocking significant portions of their supplies.
PlayDapp (PDA), with 85.97% unlock progress, prepares to release 8.14 million tokens valued at $505,986, while LayerAI (LAI) rounds out smaller unlocks with 55.91 million tokens worth $1.09 million.
The coming week’s token unlock activity will likely bring both opportunities and challenges, as markets digest these substantial movements in supply.
