$APT has an important supply event today while the token is also trading higher over the last 24 hours.
Approximately 11.31 million APT are scheduled to unlock on October 11.
The allocation includes roughly 3.96 million APT for core contributors, 3.21 million for the community, 2.81 million for investors and 1.33 million for the Aptos Foundation.
At current prices, the total release is worth roughly $9–10 million.
A token unlock does not automatically create selling pressure.
It means previously restricted tokens become transferable according to the vesting schedule. Whether recipients hold, stake, transfer or sell those tokens must be measured after the event.
The timing is interesting because $APT is currently trading around $0.85–$0.86 and is up roughly 3% over the last 24 hours as capital rotates toward altcoins.
For APT, useful metrics after the unlock include exchange inflows, recipient-wallet activity, spot volume, open interest and changes in circulating supply.
Unlock: scheduled for today.
New transferable supply: measurable.
Selling by recipients: not confirmed.
This is why token unlocks should be analyzed as supply events rather than automatically treated as bearish events.
