SOL will unlock a large amount of funds on March 1, and VCs will have unrealized profits of hundreds of millions of dollars

2025-02-24 15:34

Odaily News There is one week left until Solana’s largest ever token unlock (worth $2 billion), with 11.2 million SOL unlocked for circulation on March 1. The token unlock could bring significant selling pressure to Solana, as a large portion of the locked tokens were purchased at a discount at the FTX auction compared to today’s price.
Crypto analyst Artchick.eth said that more than 15 million SOL (about $2.5 billion) will enter circulation in the next three months, most of which will be purchased by institutions such as Galaxy Digital, Pantera Capital and Figure through FTX auctions at $64 per SOL. Galaxy still has a huge profit on the SOL purchased at $64.
Similarly, cryptocurrency trader RunnerXBT mentioned that now is a “dangerous” time to buy Solana, and emphasized that once SOL is unlocked, Galaxy Digital, Pantera, and Figure will receive unrealized profits of $3 billion, $1 billion, and $150 million, respectively. (Cointelegraph)
