Token Unlocks Exceed $879 Million in the First Week of November 2026

The cryptocurrency market is set to receive tokens valued at more than $879.9 million during the first week of November 2026. Projects such as Bitway (BTW), Kite (KITE), and Hyperliquid (HYPE) will introduce new token supplies that have the potential to influence short-term price movements and market volatility.

Bitway (BTW)

On November 2, Bitway will unlock 101.63 million BTW tokens, valued at $109.66 million, which accounts for 3.37% of the released supply. Bitway is a Bitcoin-compatible Proof-of-Stake Layer-1 blockchain developed by Bitway Labs, formerly known as Side Protocol. Its native token is utilized for staking, gas fees, and governance.

Out of this upcoming release, the community will receive 60.17 million BTW, while the ecosystem allocation will receive 41.46 million tokens. Tokenomist has marked the Bitway unlock as pending verification, meaning the figure remains a projection.

Kite (KITE)

Kite will release 640 million KITE tokens on November 3, worth $78.30 million. This date also marks the one-year anniversary of KITE beginning to trade on November 3, 2025. The tokens represent 17.41% of the released supply out of a total supply of 10 billion KITE.

Kite functions as an EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain designed for agentic payments, enabling autonomous AI agents to transact using programmable governance and verifiable identity. From the upcoming release, the team, advisors, and early contributors will receive 400 million KITE, and investors will obtain 240 million tokens. This unlock is also currently marked as pending verification by Tokenomist.

Hyperliquid (HYPE)

On November 6, Hyperliquid will unlock 180,000 HYPE tokens, which are valued at $15.72 million and account for 0.08% of the released supply. Hyperliquid operates as a decentralized perpetual futures exchange on its own Layer-1 blockchain, offering on-chain order books, low latency, and sub-second transaction finality.

The entire release is allocated to core contributors. Although the project's projected schedule lists 9.92 million HYPE for this date, the team has committed to unlocking only 180,000 tokens.

Additional market-wide releases during the first week of November include tokens from projects such as Momentum (MMT), Ethena (ENA), and HMX (HMX).
