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: July 9, $70 million

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. Xai is built on the Arbitrum Orbit stack and will be home to Ex Populus games. 

ImmutableX: July 12, $43 million

Web3 gaming firm ImmutableX IMX -5.93% will unlock 2.15% of its circulating supply, 32.5 million tokens at a current value of $43 million, on July 12. VanEck said last December that the release of Web3 games like Illuvium could catapult ImmutableX into a top 25 token by market cap in 2024.

Aptos: July 12, $68 million

Aptos APT -1.17% , one of two projects largely staffed by former members of Facebook's Libra currency project (the other one being Sui SUI -0.68% ), will unlock another 2.49% of its circulating supply on July 12, 11.31 million tokens at a current value of around $68 million. 

StarkNet: July 15, $37 million

StarkNet STRK -0.57% , the Ethereum ETH -1.70% Layer 2 network which  unveiled its 2024 roadmap in March and promised to enhance throughput and reduce transaction fees, will unlock 64 million tokens on July 15, representing 4.9% of the token's circulating supply. The current value of the tokens is about $36.7 million. 

Arbitrum: July 16, $64 million

Arbitrum, which recently became the first Layer 2 network to hit  $150 billion total volume on Uniswap , will unlock 2.9% of its circulating supply on June 16. The 92.6 million tokens have a current value of about $64 million.

Starting on July 24, 2024, that rate will more than double to 6.62 million tokens per day for two years, a current value of $13.3 million per day.
