ZRO & KAITO Unlock Day
Two notable token unlocks are on the calendar today: $ZRO and $KAITO .
But here is the interesting part:
At the time of writing, Binance Futures still shows both tokens green over the last 24 hours.
$ZRO: approximately +6%
$KAITO: approximately +2%
This is a useful reminder that:
Token unlock ≠ automatic price dump.
An unlock increases the amount of tokens that can potentially enter circulation, but that alone does not determine price.
Several factors matter:
• Who receives the unlocked tokens?
• How large is the release relative to circulating supply?
• Was the unlock already priced in?
• Is spot demand absorbing the additional supply?
• Are derivatives traders positioned too heavily in one direction?
Tokenomist currently lists August 20 as the next unlock date for both LayerZero and Kaito, with Core Contributors among the relevant allocations.
The next thing to watch isn’t simply whether the unlock happens.
It is how the market absorbs the supply after it happens.
That reaction can sometimes tell us more than the unlock itself.
DYOR.
