Arbitrum Token Unlock Looms: Will New Supply Crash ARB Price?

Arbitrum is set to unlock another significant supply of tokens on August 16, 2026. Approximately 92.65 million ARB tokens will enter circulation at a sub-$0.08 price.

This has sparked concerns about the potential impact on the token's price. The additional supply can put pressure on the market if it is distributed to buyers faster than they can absorb it.

However, it's worth noting that the tokens do not have to be sold immediately. They can be transferred, deposited, or staked without being sold, which could mitigate some of the potential negative effects on the price.
