Solana News Today: Major Token Unlocks to Release $653M in Liquidity Between August 11–18 ZK SOL FTN APT Among Key Assets

Large-scale token unlocks valued at over $653 million are scheduled to occur between August 11 and August 18, 2025, involving multiple high-profile blockchain projects [1]. These unlocks are categorized into two types: cliff unlocks, where a large portion of tokens is released at once, and linear unlocks, where tokens are gradually distributed over time. The combined effect of these unlocks will introduce significant liquidity to several key assets within the market.

ZK will lead the cliff unlock segment, releasing 173.08 million tokens worth $103.4 million—equivalent to 3.75% of its circulating supply. This is followed by FTN, which will unlock $91.8 million in value, and APT, with a $53.72 million unlock. Other notable cliff unlocks include ARB, STRK, SEI, LAYEY, CYBER, and AVAX, with each asset unlocking between $17.44 million and $91.8 million [1].

The linear unlocks are equally significant, with SOL at the forefront, releasing $93.18 million in tokens. TRUMP and WLD also feature prominently, each unlocking over $40 million in value. Additional linear unlocks include TAΟ, AVAX, TIA, SUI, and MORPHO, with each contributing between $11.81 million and $45.92 million to the market. DOGE, ETHFI, DOT, IP, JTO, NEAR, and ENS will also see smaller but notable unlocks, ranging between $8.11 million and $22.09 million [1].

The timing and scale of these unlocks could exert downward pressure on the prices of the involved tokens, as large quantities of previously restricted supply enter the market. Investors may closely monitor trading volumes and price reactions, particularly for assets with large percentage supply unlocks, such as LAYEY and CYBER, which will see 10.52% and 11.65% of their supply released, respectively. The potential for volatility is heightened in this period, with market sentiment likely to be influenced by the performance of major assets like ZK and SOL [1].
