Token unlocks are typically seen as events that can have a bearish influence on cryptocurrency prices. The extent of this impact is more robust when cryptocurrencies unlock more than 3% of their circulating supply, often leading to price corrections.&nbsp;
However, traders must keep a close eye on these events as they can trigger significant price volatility. Traders who are proactive and well-prepared may find opportunities to make profitable trades.
