#数字资产动态追踪 Optimism(OP)At 03:00 today (UTC), a $8.9 million token unlock is scheduled, accounting for 1.66% of the project's market value. The proportion doesn't seem large, but the issue is—by the end of the year, exchange liquidity is already tight, and this supply could significantly drag down the price. Historically, in the Layer2 ecosystem, after each major unlock, early investors and project teams often take the opportunity to exit, especially now that OP has fallen from its previous high, and this selling pressure will be noticeably amplified. Also worth noting are the $2.89 million unlock of AltLayer(ALT) (4.63% of market cap) and the $4.04 million unlock of Bonk (0.61%). If these concentrated supply shocks coincide with declining trading volume, they could trigger chain reactions in minutes. So, friends operating towards the end of the year should stay alert, keep an eye on the unlock schedule, and not be scared by sudden sell-offs.

OP's unlock this time is really frustrating, and I'll get hit again at the end of the year. If I had known, I wouldn't have touched it.

OP is about to dump again, the end of the year really is a minefield season.

Is OP going to dump again? Every time it unlocks, I have to be on edge, and liquidity is terrible at the end of the year.

8.9 million dollars of selling pressure doesn't look significant, but once liquidity hits the threshold, it's game over.
ALT's 4.63% is the real cause for concern; history is repeating itself right before our eyes.
OP has fallen from a high level like this, institutional investors have surely been planning their exit routes for a while.
Year-end trading volume is sluggish, and suddenly a large unlock occurs, increasing liquidation risk exponentially.
Bonk's 404,000, though a small proportion, shouldn't be underestimated given how exaggerated the leverage is in micro-cap coins.
Three projects collapsing simultaneously triggers a chain reaction, and once the lending positions are affected, they collapse.
Always keep an eye on these key time points; otherwise, you might wake up to a forced liquidation.

Is OP going to dump again? This timing at the end of the year is really intense. I bet 5 dollars that someone won't be able to hold on.
