SUI, JUP, EIGEN Lead a Wave of Supply Expansion
More than $330 million in token unlocks is scheduled to enter the market over the next seven days, according to data from Tokenomist—a scale of supply expansion that could materially impact short-term price action across multiple major assets.
The largest cliff (one-time) unlocks, each exceeding $5 million in value, include tokens such as Sui, Jupiter, EigenLayer, and Omni Network, alongside SIGN and GUN. These unlocks typically release a large batch of previously locked tokens—often allocated to early investors, teams, or ecosystem incentives—into circulating supply at once.
Such events are closely watched because they can introduce immediate sell pressure, especially if recipients choose to realize profits or rebalance positions. The impact, however, depends heavily on market conditions, liquidity depth, and investor sentiment at the time of release.

Linear Unlocks Add Constant Sell Pressure Across SOL, WLD, TRUMP
In parallel, a second layer of supply expansion is occurring through linear (gradual) unlocks, where tokens are released daily rather than all at once. Projects with daily unlock values above $1 million include Solana, Worldcoin, and Official Trump, alongside RAIN and CC.
Linear Unlock Breakdown (Daily Emissions)
- Solana (SOL) — Daily through the week
Daily Unlock: ~$8M–$10M
Est. Daily Supply Increase: ~0.05% - Worldcoin (WLD) — Daily
Daily Unlock: ~$5M–$7M
Est. Daily Supply Increase: ~0.10% - Official Trump (TRUMP) — Daily
Daily Unlock: ~$2M–$3M
Est. Daily Supply Increase: ~0.20% - RAIN (Rainmaker Games) — Daily
Daily Unlock: ~$1M+
Est. Daily Supply Increase: ~0.15% - CC (unspecified project ticker) — Daily
Daily Unlock: ~$1M+
Est. Daily Supply Increase: ~0.10%
While less dramatic than cliff unlocks, linear emissions can create persistent downward pressure, particularly in sideways or weak markets where new supply is not matched by fresh demand. Over time, these steady inflows can weigh on price performance, even if no single day appears significant.
The broader takeaway is structural: token unlocks are not just isolated events—they are part of a project’s long-term distribution schedule, shaping liquidity, volatility, and investor behavior over months and years.
For traders and investors, this week represents a compressed supply shock scenario, where both large one-time releases and ongoing emissions converge. If market demand absorbs the incoming supply, prices may remain stable or even rise. If not, these unlocks can act as a short-term headwind, particularly for tokens already facing weak momentum.
In a market increasingly driven by data and positioning, tokenomics is no longer background noise—it is a primary driver of price action.
