At current prices, the unlock will see a little more than $30 million worth of OP tokens hit the market, with $15.49 million going to core contributors and $14.26 million set aside for investors.


Token unlocking events form a core part of many main cryptocurrency projects, with many teams choosing to gradually release tokens to the market instead of unleashing them all at once. Typically, however, unlocking events are viewed by investors as likely to put pressure on prices as a new supply of tokens becomes available for sale.The price of OP token has rebounded slightly in the past five hours.

The price of the OP token is currently trading flat on the day at $1.26 after experiencing a brief 3% rally in the past 5 hours, according to price data from CoinGecko.
