Ten Crypto Unlocks Across Six Days Set to Release Over $235M Into Circulation

Ten crypto token unlock events are scheduled between April 27 and May 2, 2026. Together they release over $235 million into active circulation. Aster leads the pack with a $77.28 million unlock on April 28.

May 1 is the busiest day, with five separate unlocks landing in a single session including Kite AI at $56.99 million and Sui at $48.33 million. The schedule is heavy, concentrated, and worth watching for traders tracking supply pressure.

April 27 Kicks Things Off With Three Crypto Unlocks

The week kicks off today with three events. Hyperliquid (HYPE) releases 216.58K tokens worth $9.20 million. Official Trump (TRUMP) unlocks 904K tokens worth $2.30 million. Superfortune (GUA) releases 21.99M tokens worth $17.82 million.

Superfortune’s unlock is the biggest of the day in dollar terms. It represents 2.20% of its circulating supply, which is a meaningful jump.

HYPE and TRUMP are smaller in percentage terms and probably won’t move markets on their own. Superfortune’s release matters more because of the supply percentage, and anyone watching that asset will want to see whether the new crypto tokens get sold quickly or held.

April 28: Aster’s $77M Release Is the Single Largest Event

Aster (ASTER) unlocks 118.96M tokens on April 28 with a market value of $77.28 million. That’s the largest individual crypto unlock of the entire week. A crypto supply release at that scale matters because it changes the available float meaningfully and creates real potential for price pressure if a portion of the unlocked supply hits exchanges.

Whether ASTER sees significant volatility depends on who holds the unlocked tokens and what they decide to do. Team and investor allocations tend to behave differently than community or ecosystem allocations. The crypto market will figure that out in the days following the unlock.

May 1 Is the Heavy Crypto Unlock Day

Five separate unlocks land on May 1, making it the most concentrated supply event of the period. Kite AI (KITE) leads with 373.25M tokens worth $56.99 million, representing 3.73% of supply, the largest relative increase of any unlock this week.

Sui (SUI) follows with 52.03M tokens worth $48.33 million. Falcon Finance (FF) releases 95M tokens worth $6.54 million. Eigencloud (EIGEN) unlocks 36.82M tokens worth $6.62 million, which is 2.03% of supply.

Five unlocks landing in one day stacks supply pressure across multiple assets at the same time. Even if individual assets handle their unlocks fine, the combined effect on broader crypto market sentiment can compound. 

Traders watching multiple positions across these tokens will want to be aware that May 1 is a date where coordinated supply increases happen.

May 2: Ethena Closes the Period

Ethena (ENA) unlocks 94.18M tokens worth $10.05 million on May 2. The release closes out the week of crypto unlocks with a relatively contained event compared to May 1’s stacked schedule.

Conclusion

Ten crypto unlock events between April 27 and May 2 will release over $235 million into circulation. Aster’s $77M release on April 28 is the single largest. Kite AI’s 3.73% supply unlock on May 1 is the largest in relative terms.

May 1 stacks five unlocks in a single day. That’s concentrated supply pressure across multiple assets all at once. Traders tracking these tokens have a heavy calendar, and the impact usually plays out over the days that follow each release rather than instantly.
