The cryptocurrency market is bracing for a week of significant token unlocks and project-specific events that could impact several altcoins. Following a period of sharp declines across the market, including double-digit losses for Bitcoin, investor attention is turning to scheduled releases of previously locked tokens.
A detailed unlock schedule reveals eight altcoins with substantial token releases between February 2 and February 8, 2026. The most significant unlock by percentage of market value is for Berachain (BERA), scheduled for February 6 at 03:00 UTC+3. This event will release tokens worth approximately $29.34 million, representing a massive 59.59% of its current market capitalization of $49.25 million.
Other notable unlocks include INFINIT (IN) on February 7, releasing $5.39 million in tokens (31.45% of market value), and Quack AI (Q) on February 2, unlocking $7.93 million (12.95% of market value). Ethereum (ENA) also has an unlock on February 2 worth $12.96 million, though this represents a smaller 1.18% of its larger $1.10 billion market cap.
Concurrently, several key project developments are slated for the week. The Ondo Summit begins on February 3, where announcements regarding its real-world asset (RWA) tokenization platform could influence the ONDO token. On the same day, the Lido V3 update is scheduled to roll out, a major protocol upgrade for LDO.
Additional events include the Flying Tulip (FT) ICO launch on CoinList, the launch of ANON's "Pandora Parlays" prediction market, and ZAMA's Token Generation Event (TGE), all on February 2. Optimism (OP) has initiated a new tokenomics model starting in February, committing 50% of Superchain revenue to OP token buybacks, a move analysts suggest could have long-term supply implications.
Market participants are also monitoring macroeconomic cues, including the earnings meeting of Michael Saylor's company, MicroStrategy (MSTR), on February 5, for potential updates on its Bitcoin treasury strategy.
