The crypto market is gearing up for $906 million worth of tokens to be unlocked between April 14 and April 21.

The TRUMP meme coin prevails with $334 million in issuance, accounting for 20% of its supply.

DRB and OMNI will unlock over 60% of their combined supply in one-time events.

From April 14-21, 2025, the cryptocurrency market expects to unlock tokens totaling $906 million.

According to Tokenomist, sixteen different projects will have cliff unlocks during this period. The unlocks range in value from $5.61 million to $334 million, with the Trump meme coin (TRUMP) leading the way with $334 million worth of tokens to be issued.

According to Tokenomist, the TRUMP meme coin will issue 40 million tokens worth about $334 million on April 18. This is 20% of the total number of tokens. The unlock is the largest token issuance in terms of money, and it is also one of the largest unlocks in terms of share of the total supply.

Other political tokens are also in the process of being unlocked during the same period: the MELANIA token is set to issue 26.25 million tokens worth $12.25 million, or 7.78% of the total supply.

Among other major unlocks scheduled for April 14-21, FTN will issue 20 million tokens worth $80.8 million (2.33% of the offering), CONX will issue 4.33 million tokens worth $77.07 million (7.45% of the offering), and QAI will issue 565,690 tokens worth $49.53 million (12.7% of the offering).

ext came ZKJ with 15.53 million tokens worth $35.25 million (5.6% of the offering) and ARB with 92.65 million tokens worth $28.22 million (2.3% of the offering). Other notable cliff unlocks include the massive issuance of 1.14 billion DRB tokens worth $25.99 million (63.24% of supply), 37.5 million UXLINK tokens worth $18.48 million (5.54% of supply) and 127 million STRK tokens worth $16.11 million (8.54% of supply).

OMNI will have 8.

21 million tokens worth $15.18 million available, representing the largest percentage increase at 78.91% of the total supply. They will be joined by IMX with 24.52 million tokens worth $10.15 million (1.36% of the offer), SEI with 55.

56 million tokens worth $9.63 million (1.44% of the offer), APE with 15.6 million tokens worth $6.67 million (1.88% of the offer) and XCN with 296.38 million tokens worth $5.61 million (0.86% of the offer), whose unlocking will be completed.

Unlocks of tokens of this magnitude usually cause selling pressure as newly issued tokens come into circulation. They may be sold by early investors, team members, or partners who received tokens as part of the initial distribution.

While cliff unlocks represent an instant release of tokens, linear unlocks release tokens in installments over time. Between April 14 and April 21, Solana (SOL) tops the list of linear unlocks, with 465,770 SOL tokens worth $60.95 million offered for release.

After Solana, Worldcoin (WLD) boasts the second largest linear unlocks with 37.23 million tokens worth $27.91 million, equivalent to 3.02% of its circulating supply. It is followed by Celestia (TIA) with 6.96 million tokens worth $17.12 million (1.20% of its supply), and then Dogecoin (DOGE) with 96.52 million tokens worth $15.92 million, although this is only 0.06% of its huge supply.

Other significant linear unlocks are TAO ($12.17 million), Avalanche ($13.92 million), and Polkadot ($8.52 million). These linear releases tend to cause less volatility in the market compared to rocky releases because they occur gradually and have less relative impact on the amount of supply circulating.

The total value of all linear releases during this period is approximately $181 million, which is significantly less than cliff releases.
