July's $350 million worth of token unlocks includes Worldcoin, XAI, Arbitrum, Aptos, and more
Throughout the rest of July, several important projects in the crypto sphere will unlock hundreds of millions of dollars of tokens, from Worldcoin and Aptos to Layer 2 chains like Arbitrum and even a Layer 3 chain, Xai.Here are all the unlocks crypto investors should know about in July, according to Token Unlocks data.
The price of Worldcoin WLD +1.58% 's token is currently down about 80% from its peak in March, shortly after fellow Sam Altman co-founded company OpenAI released its text-to-video generative AI model Sora. And yet, Worldcoin will soon double its daily rate of token unlocks, alongside several other critical projects in crypto which are scheduled to release millions of dollars worth of tokens into the market.
Here are all the significant token unlocks, worth $10 million or more at current prices, for the remainder of July.

Xai, a Layer 3 gaming-based project built on Arbitrum ARB -0.70% , will undergo its second token unlock event on July 9, unlocking nearly 200 million tokens, 72% of its circulating supply, at a current value of about $70 million.
