Do ZK token unlocks affect the price?
Unlocks increase circulating supply, which adds potential sell-side pressure. The size that matters is the unlock as a share of circulating supply, not its dollar value — a small unlock on a small float can move price more than a large unlock on a large one. Markets often price anticipated unlocks in advance, so the reaction is frequently ahead of the date rather than on it. This is scheduled data, not financial advice.
