During the year-end and New Year period, the crypto market experiences a wave of concentrated token unlocks. According to tracking data from Token Unlocks, from December 29 to January 2, several mainstream tokens including HYPE, SUI, and EIGEN will release large amounts of liquidity. Market participants should closely monitor these key moments.

Leading the pack is HYPE, which is scheduled to unlock 9.92 million tokens at 3:30 PM on December 29, with a market cap of $251 million, accounting for 2.87% of its circulating supply. On New Year's Day, SUI will unlock 43.69 million tokens at 8:00 AM, valued at approximately $63.36 million, representing 1.17% of circulating supply; on the same day at noon, EIGEN will also undergo an unlock event, involving 36.82 million tokens worth $14.44 million, accounting for 9.74% of circulating supply.

In addition to these high-profile tokens, the unlock schedules of other tokens are also noteworthy. KMNO will release 229 million tokens at 8:00 PM on December 30, valued at $11.71 million, representing 5.35% of circulating supply; OP is scheduled to unlock 31.34 million tokens at 8:00 AM on December 31, worth $8.60 million, accounting for 1.65%; SVL and ZORA will unlock simultaneously at 8:00 AM on December 30, involving 234 million and 166 million tokens respectively, with market caps of $6.80 million and $6.70 million, and circulating supply proportions of 2.96% and 4.17%. Moving into January 2, ENA will unlock 40.63 million tokens at 3:00 PM, valued at $8.60 million, representing 0.56% of circulating supply.

Large unlocks often exert downward pressure on token prices, especially when the unlock volume accounts for a high proportion of circulating supply. Investors should familiarize themselves with these key dates in advance, implement risk management strategies, and also observe the market’s actual response—sometimes strong fundamentals can absorb these supply shocks.

The year-end cross-year unlocking wave is coming, be careful this time. EIGEN's 9.74% circulating supply is really intense. SUI and HYPE might face pressure in the next few days. KMNO's over 5% can't be ignored either. That said, unlocking is just unlocking; the main thing is whether market sentiment can hold up. These days, you might need to keep an eye on the K-line. Is anyone else like me, planning to go short and give it a try? Where's the promised year-end market rally? Why is it all negative news? EIGEN's circulating supply is so high, the whales will have to dump hard. Let's see which one has the strongest resistance.

Emma, the New Year’s Eve period is really a minefield, and the 9.74% unlock volume of EIGEN directly makes me break out in a cold sweat. It's the unlock season again, and we're facing a dump—same old story. On the first day of the New Year, SUI pulls this stunt—really sending New Year greetings to everyone. KMNO's 2.29 billion tokens, oh my god, how long does it take to dump that much? But on the other hand, sometimes unlocking can be an opportunity to buy the dip? It depends on the fundamentals. With such a high proportion of EIGEN, dare to take the risk? Truly commendable courage. This weekend, I’m definitely staying up late to monitor the market—can't make money if I don’t, and I also need to manage risks. The unlock during the New Year’s period is really unethical, haha. It all depends on how those institutions absorb this wave of supply shock.

The wave of unlocks at the end of the year is really coming hard. EIGEN's 9.74% is making me laugh out loud. Are they trying to dump the market? The unlock schedules for SUI and OP are stacked together. Whether the New Year starts with a bang or a green opening depends on whether the fundamentals can hold up. That 251 million HYPE really hurts. It depends on whether someone will step in to buy the dip. That 5.35% share of KMNO makes me a bit nervous. This rhythm feels a bit off. The year-end is turning into a dump wave. I need to be careful. I didn't hold any of these coins. Just watching the show. Go ahead and dump them all, haha. With such large unlock volumes, wanting to stabilize the coin price is just a dream. It's all about whether the fundamentals are strong or not; otherwise, it's gg.

During these New Year’s days, you need to keep a close eye; otherwise, you might wake up to your account shrinking again. EIGEN’s 9.74% unlock ratio is a bit aggressive, and it might cause some pressure when the time comes. To be honest, the numbers for HYPE and SUI look large, but their ratios aren’t particularly outrageous. The key is to watch the market sentiment at that time. Everyone is celebrating the New Year at the end of the year, so there might be fewer people defending the market, making this timing somewhat risky. KMNO’s 2.29 billion tokens are directly involved—I really can’t understand how it can still hold up. Instead of obsessing over specific numbers, it’s better to focus on which tokens can’t be dumped after unlocking—that’s where the real interest lies. I’d like to see how SUI handles it, after all, the ecosystem’s heat is right there.

This wave of unlocking must be closely watched, especially EIGEN's 9.74% which is directly showing muscle. --- Still want to sleep peacefully during the New Year? Just look at this schedule and you'll know it's not possible haha. --- EIGEN accounts for nearly 10% of circulating supply. Dare to say it's not a dump? Is this what they call "good fundamentals being digested"? --- It's that time of year again, let's see whose wallet can survive these five days. --- SUI and EIGEN unlocking on the same day? This is testing the market's resilience. --- Basically, it's just about whether retail investors' stop-loss orders are enough and if they can buy the dip. --- Institutions have probably already finished their pre-positioning. This wave is just a time to give retail investors some cash. --- On January 2nd, the 0.56% of ENA is actually the safest. The real pressure is concentrated in these few days. --- It happens every time. Someone always says "good fundamentals can be digested," and every time it drops. --- Are you ready, everyone? The first lesson of the new year: what is a true supply shock.

Damn, EIGEN's 9.74% is really intense. Even trying to relax during the New Year is difficult. --- It's another unlocking wave. This is the toughest test of technical analysis. Should you sell early or hold on? --- SUI and OP can't avoid it. Coming out on the first day of the New Year, I'm stunned. --- If the coins you're confident in drop sharply in these few days, they really get hammered down. --- I can't understand KMNO's 5.35% at all. How hard do they have to hit? --- Really, the unlocking timing is more critical than the coin price itself. One wrong move and you'll get trapped. --- Can the fundamentals hold? Wake up. In front of market sentiment, fundamentals are just a joke. --- From December 29 for these five days, don't expect to have a good holiday. You need to watch the market.

Be extra cautious during these New Year days. The 9.74% circulating supply unlock for EIGEN is a bit terrifying... --- Another unlock wave. I bet five bucks that someone will get hit. --- HYPE first? Give the market a warning shot, anyway the New Year is already chaotic. --- SUI and EIGEN on the same day? Is this testing how strong the market's heart is... --- Looking at these numbers, I feel I should prepare an escape route. --- That 5.35% for KMNO... is it digging its own grave? Really. --- It's the same old story, large unlocks = selling pressure, but the real question is who will buy the dip. --- I just want to know if this time will again be a "good news all out, bad news all in" reverse operation. --- Trading crypto on New Year's Day, or having dinner with family? I've already chosen... coins. --- ENA's share isn't high. Could this be an opportunity to pick up a bargain? --- Starting from December 29, keep an eye on the market. Happy New Year, or should I say, Happy New Year pressure haha.
