BIT rises slightly after BitDAO unlocks 187.5 million tokens

The newest crypto platform on this week’s list of token unlocks is the decentralized construction economy project BitDAO. Unlike some peer projects, its native token BIT has increased throughout the process.

On February 14th, BitDAO unlocked 187.5 million BITs as part of a scheduled release. At current prices, the total value of unlocked tokens is approximately $106 million.

Additionally, unlocked accounts for approximately 2% of the entire BIT supply. The next unlock is on March 15th.

The BitDAO unlock schedule plans to release a similar number of tokens each month through June 2024. Such supply releases are intended to regulate investor interest, but often result in short-term price volatility.

When a large number of tokens flood the market, it increases the circulating supply and reduces demand, thereby reducing the price of the asset. Furthermore, this effect is exacerbated during bear markets.
