AltLayer has announced changes to its token vesting schedule as the decentralized rollups protocol gears for its first unlock this week. 
On Tuesday, the AltLayer (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/altlayer/">ALT</a>) team unveiled a new vesting schedule that will see the next token unlock following the July 25 event. The protocol revealed that all stakeholders had agreed to a six-month pause in the project’s token unlock schedule. 
“As you may be aware, the first ALT token unlock is scheduled for July 25, 2024. As this significant date approaches, we would like to inform the AltLayer community of a change we have introduced to the vesting schedule for all stakeholders,” AltLayer <a href="https://blog.altlayer.io/change-in-alt-token-vesting-schedule-6f6a3857ce80" target="_blank" rel="">announced</a>. 
The protocol also posted the changes on its X account, providing details of the new vesting schedule. As earlier indicated, the crypto platform will see its first unlock of ALT since the Token Generation Event on Jan. 25.
