The Aptos Foundation will receive 1.33 million APT tokens, worth a cool $22 million. Core contributors are in for a treat with 11.88 million APT tokens, totaling a hefty $198.91 million. Investors are next in line, getting 8.42 million <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/aptos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">APT tokens</a> valued at $141.10 million. Last but certainly not least, the community will receive 3.21 million APT tokens, coming in at $53.77 million. 
Previous <a href="https://token.unlocks.app/aptos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">APT unlocks</a> caused a slight dip in price. But analysts are suggesting that the alt season may not have peaked just yet. This leaves room for APT to potentially appreciate even further before any major selloff occurs.&nbsp; 
And remember what we discussed last time? Aptos has been on a roll with development projects, including some exciting ventures across Africa to push forward Web3 development. I’m curious to see how this unlock shakes things up for Aptos. 
<h5>2) Starknet</h5> 
Our next <a href="https://token.unlocks.app/starknet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">major unlock</a> for April is Starknet.&nbsp; On April 15th, they’re unleashing a whopping 64 million STRK tokens. That’s nearly 8.8% of its total circulating tokens, valued at a cool $124 million. Let’s see more about one of our favorite altcoins. 
Now, who’s cashing in on this release? Early contributors are in for a treat with 33.57 million STRK tokens, worth a sweet $68.47 million. Investors, you’re not left out either! You’ll be getting 30.43 million <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/starknet" target="_blank" rel="noopener">STRK tokens</a>, totaling $62.09 million.

Starknet initially planned to unlock 1.34 billion tokens. But the team changed their plans following a massive reaction from the community.&nbsp; 
<a href="https://starknet.io/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Starkware</a>, the team behind Starknet plans to commence a gradual unlock afterward. The team will release 64 million tokens monthly until March 15, 2025. Afterwards, they’ll release 127 million tokens monthly for the next 24 months until March 15, 2027. 
But wait, there’s more! Starknet recently dropped some big news about a network upgrade set to boost protocol performance. And guess what? The token market liked what it heard. STRK saw a solid 13.3% uptick from $2.03 to $2.30 between March 23rd and 27th. 
Starknet’s got big plans, folks. They’re gearing up to implement this upgrade in Q2 2024. So, watch out for this unlock. 
<h5>3) Arbitrum</h5> 
Arbitrum is one of the altcoins that has been on a crazy unlocking spree lately. Last month, the team <a href="https://token.unlocks.app/arbitrum" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unlocked</a> over 1 billion ARB tokens worth over $2 billion. Now, they plan to unlock $138.87 million tokens on April 16. This accounts for 3.75% of its circulating supply.&nbsp; 
The allocation is for the project’s team and investors. The team and advisors will receive tokens valued at $88.12 million. Investors will receive <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/arbitrum" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ARB tokens</a> valued at $57.34 million.
