$SUI #Sui tokens unlock !!!
The upcoming unlock of 74 million
$SUI tokens on May 1, 2025, is a critical event that could influence the token's price.
In October 2024, a $100 million token unlock (64 million SUI, 2.4% of supply) initially caused short-term volatility, but SUI’s price surged afterward due to bullish factors like Grayscale’s SUI Trust launch and a rising Total Value Locked (TVL). Similarly, a September 2024 unlock saw a 20% price drop but was followed by a doubling in price later .
Token unlocks often increase selling pressure, but strong fundamentals (e.g., ecosystem growth, institutional interest) can offset bearish trends. For example, SUI’s TVL recently surpassed $1 billion, signaling investor confidence.
Most unlocks are allocated to early investors and contributors (e.g., 61% to Series A/B investors in past unlocks), who may sell tokens for profit .
Community reserves (20%) and treasury allocations might be used for ecosystem growth, reducing immediate sell pressure .
SUI’s price is currently $3.69, up 915% from its all-time low, indicating strong long-term momentum .
Technical indicators like the 20-day EMA above the 50-day EMA historically signaled bullish trends.
While the unlock may cause short-term volatility, SUI’s strong fundamentals and historical resilience suggest potential for recovery. A balanced approach (e.g., partial sell-off or setting stop-loss orders) could mitigate risks while allowing exposure to future gains. Always align your decision with personal risk tolerance and investment goals.
