Is selling pressure from early crypto investors easing?
Insider releases—tokens allocated to teams and early investors—often represent a significant portion of the post-launch supply increase.
Annual release value:
• 2022: $58.97 billion
• 2023: $57.93 billion
• 2024: $95.74 billion
(peak)
• 2025: $60.67 billion
• 2026: $24.88 billion
• 2027: $17.59 billion
Summary:
• 2024 was the peak year for insider releases following the previous funding cycle.
• After 2025, selling pressure from releases begins to decline sharply.
• By 2027, releases are expected to be approximately 81% lower than their 2024 peak.
📊 This decline in releases could mean less structural selling pressure on the market in the coming years.
