On June 20, 2025, LayerZero (ZRO) will unlock approximately 25.71 million ZRO tokens, which is about 22.13% of the currently circulating supply. This is a highly significant unlock event and stands out as one of the largest relative supply increases for any major token this year.

Size and Market Impact

  • Unlocking over 22% of the circulating supply at once is substantial and will dramatically increase the amount of ZRO available for trading and liquidity.
  • At a current price of around $2.30, this unlock represents nearly $60 million in new tokens entering the market—more than 20% of the token’s market capitalization.
  • Such a large and sudden increase in supply often leads to heightened selling pressure, as early investors, contributors, or airdrop recipients may choose to take profits, especially if the tokens are not subject to additional lockups or staking incentives.

Supply Shock and Price Considerations

  • Large unlocks like this typically create a supply shock, with the risk of sharp downward price movement if demand does not quickly absorb the new tokens.
  • Market history shows that price often declines in anticipation of major unlocks, and volatility can spike around the event itself.
  • The distribution of the unlocked tokens—whether to the community, strategic partners, or the foundation—will also influence how much is immediately sold versus held for the long term.

Summary

The June 20 ZRO token unlock of 22.13% of circulating supply is a major event likely to introduce significant short-term volatility and downward price pressure. Traders and investors should monitor market sentiment and liquidity closely, as the scale of this unlock could reshape ZRO’s price dynamics in the days and weeks surrounding the event.
