AI summary iconSummary
Trending altcoins will see major token unlocks this week, with 17 projects releasing between 1.12% and 21.20% of their market values. Unlocks are set for August 17 to August 23, 2026, in UTC+3 Turkish time. Tokens include Pudgy Penguins (PENGU), Caldera (ERA), ZKsync (ZK), and others. New token listings may face pressure from these unlocks.

The cryptocurrency market has failed to recover again in the last week, and Bitcoin, the world’s largest digital asset, is poised to close the week with a loss of approximately 3%.

While cryptocurrencies failed to meet expectations, the S&P 500 in the US reached an all-time high, and the Nasdaq indices experienced gains.

However, token unlocks, especially in some altcoins, will be a hot topic in the cryptocurrency market this week. Here is the token unlock schedule we have specially prepared for you at Bitcoinsistemi.com.
