Why tokens are locked

Many crypto projects keep a large share of their tokens for the founding team and early investors. To stop them selling everything on day one, those tokens are often locked: nothing is released during a cliff, then an equal amount unlocks each month until the vesting period ends.

Why unlocks matter

Each unlock adds tokens to the circulating supply. If the people receiving them sell, that extra supply can weigh on the price. Most tokens kept by the founders is one of the red flags to look for in a whitepaper, so check how big the locked share is and when it unlocks.
