Hedera leads in volume among upcoming token unlocks

Notable token unlocks affect the crypto market as they are considered bearish and show an increase in the total token in circulation.

Historically, with more tokens, there are more sellers than buyers; hence sellers have to sell lower, which causes a price drop. CryptoRank.io highlights the high-volume unlocks that will take place in March, including top tokens such as HBAR, APE and BIT.
