In addition to cliff unlocks, several projects have scheduled linear token releases. Solana (SOL) leads this category with 524.03K tokens valued at $78.57 million. The amount represents 0.11% of its circulating supply. 
Worldcoin (WLD) follows with 37.23 million tokens worth $74.45 million, accounting for 7.32% of its circulating supply. Other major linear unlocks include TAO, Avalanche (AVAX), and SEI. 
Some of the smaller unlocks include Near Protocol (NEAR), Polkadot (DOT), Filecoin (FILE) and BEAM. These projects are unlocking tokens worth $15.2 million to $8.16 million. 
It’s worth noting that while some projects are releasing a large percentage of their circulating supply, others like Cardano (ADA) and Dogecoin (DOGE) are unlocking relatively small portions of their total supply. 
DOGE, for instance, is set to release 94.47 million tokens valued at $10.78 million. It is just 0.06% of its circulating supply. ADA is also just unlocking 0.05% of its supply. 
The $451 million token unlocks scheduled for this week could potentially impact the market prices of the respective cryptocurrencies.
