Top 10 Biggest Token Unlocks: $125M Hits the Market Aug 24-30, 2026

Roughly $125.36M in tokens unlocks across ten projects between August 24 and 30, 2026, according to data from Cryptorank, Tokenomist and DefiLlama. Humanity's $H leads at $20.27M on August 24, while GRVT carries the steepest dilution at 6.39% of supply. No single event dominates — the load spreads across all five days, with August 29 the busiest.

Key takeaways

• Total unlock value for the week: roughly $125.36M across ten tokens, spread over five separate calendar dates plus four ongoing-daily schedules.
• Humanity ($H) tops the list at $20.27M, releasing 292.9M H tokens equal to 2.93% of supply on August 24.
• GRVT shows the sharpest dilution of the week: 63.9M GRVT tokens, or 6.39% of circulating supply, worth $13.68M, unlocking August 29.
• August 29 is the heaviest single day, with $FF ($18.29M, Aug 29-30), $GRVT ($13.68M) and $CARDS ($6.18M) unlocking together for roughly $38.15M combined.
• Four tokens — $CC, $TRUMP, $GRASS and $TAO — release supply on an ongoing daily basis rather than a single date, softening their day-to-day market impact.

Why does August 29 matter more than other days?

August 29 is the week's pressure point because three unlocks land simultaneously: $FF ($18.29M, part of a two-day release through Aug 30), $GRVT ($13.68M) and $CARDS ($6.18M). Combined, that's roughly $38.15M — close to a third of the week's total — hitting circulating supply on one day. When multiple unlocks cluster, sell pressure can compound if holders liquidate around the same window, especially for tokens with lower liquidity depth. Traders watching order books for GRVT, Falcon and Collector Crypt should expect the most volatility risk on this date, since it's the only day carrying three concurrent events rather than one.

Why is GRVT the standout dilution risk?

GRVT unlocks 63.9M tokens worth $13.68M on August 29, equal to 6.39% of its circulating supply — the highest percentage dilution of any token in the list this week. That figure matters because GRVT is described as a fresh TGE (token generation event) project, meaning roughly 1 in every 16 tokens currently in circulation enters the market in a single day. Newer tokens typically carry thinner order books than established assets, so a 6.39% supply increase in one session can move price more than the same percentage would for a deeply liquid token. Traders tracking GRVT's derivatives market can follow open interest and funding on GRVT, where positioning often shifts ahead of known unlock dates.

What's the difference between scheduled and ongoing-daily unlocks?

A scheduled unlock releases a large batch of tokens on one specific date, while an ongoing-daily unlock distributes smaller amounts continuously every day. This week, $CC, $TRUMP, $GRASS and $TAO all follow the daily model, which spreads out roughly $47.99M combined ($18.84M + $15.5M + $7.73M + $5.94M) across seven days rather than concentrating it. Scheduled unlocks — like $H's $20.27M single-day release on August 24 or the Aug 29-30 window for $FF — tend to generate sharper short-term liquidity events because the entire batch becomes tradable at once. Ongoing-daily schedules generally produce steadier, more absorbable sell pressure, even when the weekly total is comparable in size.

How does dilution percentage differ from raw dollar value?

Dilution percentage measures the unlock's size relative to a token's existing circulating supply, while dollar value simply reflects the unlock's market price at release. $H tops the list in dollar terms at $20.27M but sits at just 2.93% dilution, whereas $GRVT's $13.68M unlock represents more than double that dilution ratio at 6.39%. This distinction matters because a smaller dollar figure can still cause outsized price impact if it represents a large share of a thinly traded token's supply. Huma ($HUMA) illustrates this middle ground: its $9.89M unlock is modest in dollar terms but equals 4.59% of supply, making it the second-most-diluted token behind GRVT this week.

Bottom line

The week's roughly $125.36M in unlocks is distributed enough that no single event should dominate market attention — except GRVT, which combines a meaningful dollar figure with the steepest dilution ratio and a fresh-TGE liquidity profile. August 29's triple-unlock cluster ($FF, $GRVT, $CARDS) is the clearest date to watch for concentrated sell pressure.
