AlphaPepe's Stage-Based Pricing Tests Solana Demand Amid Token Unlocks

The upcoming August token unlocks are putting Solana news in focus as they test demand across the network. Token unlocks increase the supply of SOL, which may pressure markets if recipients choose to sell their tokens.

AlphaPepe's stage-based pricing model creates a different scarcity trade by removing access to previous presale prices and adding locked tokens to the ecosystem. The platform has zero team allocation and no VC vesting schedules, providing transparency around insider distribution.

The AlphaPepe presale has raised over $2.27 million, with more than 10,000 holders onboard. As the raise progresses through its stages, public demand will determine how community-held supply behaves after ALPE becomes tradable.
