The crypto market is showing early signs of recovery after a major liquidation event. However, an upcoming token unlock event could introduce fresh turbulence for certain assets. According to crypto analyst Pooja Khardia, three cryptocurrencies are at risk of increased selling pressure this week, making them prime candidates for short-term liquidation.
Top 3 Cryptos to Sell Now and Why
According to the Tokenomist report, $150 billion worth of tokens will be unlocked in 2025, with $378.22 million set to be released in the next seven days alone. Such large token unlocks increase circulating supply, adding selling pressure and triggering volatility in the crypto market. Investors should analyze and consider selling CHEEL, APT, and ZKJ before price swings intensify.
Cheelee (CHEEL)
CHEEL is facing the largest cliff unlock of the week, valued at $164.21 million. The token has already experienced high volatility and frequent consolidation phases. With additional supply entering the market, selling pressure is likely to escalate, leading to potential price declines. While short-term traders may consider selling, long-term investors should conduct further research on its broader trajectory.
Aptos (APT)
The popular altcoin Aptos (APT) will experience a $68.42 million token unlock in the coming days, representing 2% of its circulating supply. This significant release could lead to increased sell-offs, causing a downward trend in APT’s short-term price movement. Investors might choose to sell at current levels and repurchase once the price stabilizes.
Polyhedra Network (ZKJ)
Among the three, ZKJ presents the most concerning scenario, as 29.8% of its supply is set to hit the market. Such a substantial increase in available tokens could trigger a steep price drop. Additionally, panic selling among token holders could amplify losses, making ZKJ particularly risky in the short term.
What Should Token Holders Do Next?
Token unlock events are a common occurrence in the crypto industry, allowing early investors to release previously locked assets into circulation. However, these events often lead to heightened volatility and short-term instability, favoring sellers over holders. With $378.22 million in unlocked tokens set to enter the market this week for CHEEL, APT, and ZKJ, strategic investors may choose to sell before major price swings occur.
