$1.1B Token Release Sparks Attention

The release of Celestia’s tokens is just one part of the massive token unlock wave coming in October. Another notable release is from Cheelee, a Web3-based social network that rewards users for video engagement. Cheelee is scheduled to unlock $300 million worth of its native CHEEL tokens on October 10. 

The tokens will go to the project’s advisors, marketing, and other key contributors. However, there are concerns about CHEEL’s market stability, as the token’s value dropped from $16 to $12 on the first day of withdrawal availability on September 24.

Cheelee’s temporary suspension of withdrawals on September 20 caused some market turbulence, as the social app prepared for an update. After enabling withdrawals again, the price fluctuations highlighted potential instability.

Broader Implications for the Crypto Market

In addition to Celestia and Cheelee, other crypto projects such as Starknet STRK $0.48 24h volatility: 0.9% Market cap: $863.11 M Vol. 24h: $188.13 M , Aptos APT $8.21 24h volatility: -1.2% Market cap: $4.13 B Vol. 24h: $263.64 M , Arbitrum ARB $0.65 24h volatility: 4.1% Market cap: $2.35 B Vol. 24h: $418.71 M , ImmutableX IMX $1.80 24h volatility: -1.6% Market cap: $2.90 B Vol. 24h: $99.53 M , and Axie Infinity AXS $5.45 24h volatility: 1.8% Market cap: $821.28 M Vol. 24h: $40.01 M are also set to unlock significant amounts of tokens. In total, these projects will release almost $600 million in crypto assets throughout October.

The largest of these, Aptos, will release $90 million in tokens on October 12, while others such as Arbitrum, Axie Infinity, and GateToken will unlock tokens worth $50-70 million. These releases represent a substantial addition of liquidity to the market and may influence token prices across the board​.

With October seeing the unlocking of almost $2 billion in crypto, the market’s ability to absorb this influx without dramatic price swings will be closely watched. While the price of some tokens like TIA and CHEEL is on a downward trend, others may experience more stability depending on investor sentiment and market conditions.
