This had initially triggered a downtrend but Axie’s <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/whistleblower-bullish-forecast-for-xrp/">bullish sentiment</a> looks to have returned once the dilution was complete.The next token unlock event for the ecosystem will happen in January 18, 2024, which gives investors a runway of about two months before more dilutions occur. 
For now, AXS continues to demonstrate strength at $5.81, marking an over 30% increase on the weekly chart.
