How Token Unlocks Affect the Rate
Unlocking is slang for the process when some of the investors/team's tokens are unlocked and can be safely sold into the market.
On the graph you can see that 15-30 days before unlocking the token rate was growing, and after it was almost unchanged. For the sake of accuracy we took the rate of assets to BTC.
The rate is mostly influenced by token unlocks of investors, who bought with the aim to sell at a higher price. The nearest will be DYDX and STEPN.
In general, if the project is large and the price is near the bottom, new coins do not dump the rate. Problems with dumping arise in small projects, where there is little demand to buy, and many people willing to sell: SWEAT, WBT, AZY...
