As the crypto market braces for a wave of token unlocks this week, TRUMP coin, Starknet (STRK), SEI, Arbitrum (ARB), OMNI, UXLINK, and Immutable X (IMX) are all lined up for a supply shock that will certainly cause price fluctuations to the downside.

These unlocks are part of a $300M+ token unlock wave this week, so brace for market volatility. Typically, in the run-up to such events we see sell-offs and the value of the tokens drops under big selling pressure.

Here are some more details:

🏦 Key Details of the SEI Unlock:

  • Tokens Unlocked: 55.56 million SEI (estimated 1.14% of circulating supply)
  • Valuation Range: $9.7 million (price-dependent)
  • Unlock Schedule: April 15.
    For SEI, this unlock could align with ecosystem incentives, such as staking rewards or developer grants. However, without explicit confirmation from the team, investors should tread carefully.

🏦 The Starknet (STRK) Unlock at a Glance:

  • Tokens Unlocked: 127–128 million STRK
  • Percentage of Circulating Supply: 4.37–4.41%
  • Valuation: $16.7–$17 million (price-dependent)
  • Unlock Schedule: April 15.
    Part of a monthly vesting plan extending through March 2027, eventually releasing 30.48% of STRK’s total supply. This unlock is a critical phase in Starknet’s long-term distribution strategy, designed to gradually allocate tokens to early contributors, investors, and ecosystem funds. However, the sudden influx of liquidity could test market resilience.

  • Tokens Unlocked: 92.63–93.65 million ARB

📊 Why These Unlocks Matter

Token unlocks often act as double-edged swords:

  1. Liquidity Risks: Newly unlocked tokens may flood exchanges, increasing sell-side pressure if holders cash out.
  2. Sentiment Volatility: Large unlocks can spark fear among retail investors, especially if project fundamentals weaken.
  3. Ecosystem Growth: If tokens are allocated to grants or partnerships, the unlock could accelerate Starknet’s adoption in the competitive Layer-2 race.

🛡️ How to Prepare as an Investor

  • Track Exchange Activity: Use tools like Arkham or Nansen to monitor STRK deposits to exchanges like Binance or OKX.
  • Assess Fundamentals: Starknet’s focus on ZK-Rollups and developer tools could offset short-term selling pressure if adoption grows.
  • Technical Levels: Watch key support zones (e.g., hypothetical $0.10–$0.13 range) for potential buying opportunities if prices dip.

Final Thoughts
Token unlocks are inevitable in crypto’s growth phase, but their impact depends on holder intent and market conditions. For Starknet, this unlock could either be a stress test or a stepping stone—investors must stay informed, adaptable, and risk-aware.
