Next 6 to 12 months: Unprecedented surge in token unlocks in RWA sector. Billions in new supply hitting market.

Some of the largest participants in the RWA token market are gearing up for significant unlocks over the next year. These unlocks will touch an extensive array of tokens, some of which are set to release even more than 100% of today's circulating supply.

Major actors in the real-world asset (RWA) token sector are set to witness substantial unlocks over the next 12 months, introducing billions in new supply to the market and potentially altering the price dynamic and liquidity in prominent RWA tokens.

As reported by Tokenomist, some of the largest participants in the RWA token market are gearing up for significant unlocks over the next year. These unlocks will touch an extensive array of tokens, some of which are set to release even more than 100% of today’s circulating supply. The consequent supply surge could impact token valuations—as in, if demand doesn’t keep up, these tokens could lose value.

A Look Ahead: Major Token Unlocks in the RWA Sector

Some of the largest participants in the RWA token market are gearing up for significant unlocks over the next year. These unlocks will touch an extensive array of tokens, some of which are set to release even more than 100% of today’s circulating supply. The consequent supply surge could impact token valuations.

$OM: Aggressive Unlocking Schedule

One of the most dramatic unlocks coming up within the foreseeable future is $OM, which has an aggressively scheduled release. In just the next six months, $OM will unlock a total of $719.52 million, which is 69.84% of the current supply that is available to be traded. Over the next year, that amount grows to an even more staggering $1.68 billion, representing 163.41% of the amount that is unlocked now. With all this trading possibility coming up, if demand can’t keep pace with the appearance of so many new tokens, there is bound to be some downward price action.

$USUAL: Significant Unlocks Ahead

Another token with a significant unlocking schedule is $USUAL. The project plans to release tokens worth $37.15 million (33.23% of its supply) in the next six months, and a staggering 117.81% (or $131.7 million) of its supply will unlock in the next year. These will affect the supply-demand balance, potentially in a big way. That could be a good thing for investors who hold or want to accumulate more $USUAL. But, if the demand for $USUAL doesn’t change in same the way the supply seems about to change, it could lead to a pronounced drop in the token’s price. So what’s the demand side of the equation look like?

$PRCL: A More Moderate Dilution Risk

Unlike the extreme unlocks of $OM and $USUAL, $PRCL has a relatively moderate unlock schedule. It is set to release $10.28 million (37.09%) in the next six months, with an additional $22.78 million (82.15%) unlocked within the year. This still represents a significant increase in supply, but the risk of dilution is less severe when compared to tokens with larger unlocks like $OM. Meanwhile, investors have to be aware that the price of $PRCL could dip in the immediate term as new tokens enter circulation.

$TOKEN: Liquidity at Risk

$TOKEN plans to release $12.06 million worth of tokens (42.87%) in the next six months. Within a year, the total unlocked will reach $23.93 million (85.04%). The prospect of this release impacting liquidity is notable, especially if the market sensibilities remain bearish during the unlocking. Given the unlock’s size, it’s also not hard to see this putting additional downward pressure on the price of $TOKEN, at least until the absorbed new supply route straight into bearish token holder wallets.

$TRIBL: Extreme Long-Term Unlock

One of the most extreme unlocking schedules in the RWA sector belongs to $TRIBL. This token is set to unlock 186.19% of its supplies within the next year, totaling $4.01 million in value. Such a high emission rate could have a significant impact on the price stability of $TRIBL, potentially causing wild swings in its value as new tokens flood the market. Investors should be braced for a volatile ride, as these extreme unlocks could create heightened uncertainty.

$ZBCN & $VENOM: More Manageable Releases

In a manner that allows for more control, $ZBCN and $VENOM will annually unleash not inconsiderable sums—$28.83 million (40.11%) and $47.80 million (35.34%), respectively—onto the marketplace. And even though these figures still represent a significant ramp-up in supply, the manner in which these two projects are supposed to operate suggests that at least some degree of manageable dilution will
