The Aptos blockchain project will unlock 24.84 million APT tokens, worth approximately $409.89 million, on April 12th, 2024. This substantial unlocking event will release 6.25% of the total APT supply into the crypto ecosystem.

While APT may boast the highest "large-value" unlock by value, DYDX takes the lead in terms of supply release percentage among the listed tokens. By unlocking 33.33 million DYDX tokens, valued at $113.33 million, the decentralized exchange (DEX)'s native token will unleash 11.35% of its total supply onto the crypto market. DYDX will initiate its token unlocking program in April alongside ZETA, the utility token powering ZetaChain.
