Token Unlocking and Economic Events of the Week November 24-30, 2025

Major Token Unlockings from November 24 to 30, 2025, and Key Economic Events: Company Reports, Inflation Data, Central Bank Meetings. Analysis for Investors.

Investors worldwide are preparing for an eventful week. From November 24 to 30, 2025, a substantial volume of tokens from seven projects – totaling approximately $80 million – will enter the cryptocurrency market due to scheduled token unlockings. Simultaneously, a series of important economic events and corporate reports are expected in the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Russia. This combination of "crypto unlocks" and macroeconomic factors could significantly influence the sentiments of participants in both the cryptocurrency and traditional financial markets. Below is an analysis of cryptocurrencies and a review of key events for the week, including token information and an economic publication and earnings calendar broken down by day.

Major Token Unlockings for the Week

During the week, a total of seven projects will execute significant token unlockings. This means an increase in the supply of the respective tokens in the market, which theoretically may create downward pressure on their prices, especially if the volume is considerable in relation to market capitalization. Below are the details for each token – unlock date, volume, share of market capitalization, estimated dollar value, and total market capitalization of the project:

XPL (Plasma) – November 25; 88.88 million tokens; ~4.94% of market capitalization; ~$18.13 million; total cap. ~$2.02 billion.
WCT (WalletConnect) – November 26; 128.12 million tokens; ~68.8% of market capitalization; ~$14.84 million; total cap. ~$116 million.
KMNO (Kamino) – November 30; 220.00 million tokens; ~22.0% of market capitalization; ~$11.22 million; total cap. ~$507 million.
H (Humanity Protocol) – November 25; 91.67 million tokens; ~5.02% of market capitalization; ~$10.78 million; total cap. ~$1.18 billion.
OP (Optimism) – November 30; 32.21 million tokens; ~1.70% of market capitalization; ~$9.80 million; total cap. ~$1.31 billion.
ZORA (Zora) – November 30; 166.67 million tokens; ~3.73% of market capitalization; ~$8.68 million; total cap. ~$518 million.
UDS (Undeads Games) – November 30; 3.18 million tokens; ~3.10% of market capitalization; ~$6.91 million; total cap. ~$543 million.

The largest absolute volume of unlocking is attributed to the XPL (Plasma) token – approximately $18 million, equivalent to ~4.9% of its capitalization. However, the event with the most significant potential market impact might be the WCT (WalletConnect): an unlocking of ~$14.8 million represents nearly 70% of this token's current capitalization, indicating potentially strong downward pressure on the WCT price if holders of the new tokens decide to sell. In other cases, the newly released supply is more moderate – for example, Optimism (OP) will increase the supply by only ~1.7% of its capitalization, which is likely to be absorbed by the market with a lesser effect. Generally, large token unlocks often lead to short-term volatility: additional coins in circulation may lower prices if new demand from investors doesn’t grow proportionally. On the other hand, positive news or strong fundamental value of projects (as with OP, one of the leaders in layer-two solutions) can help the market absorb new supply without long-term damage.

November 24, 2025 (Monday)

No significant macroeconomic indicators are scheduled for publication this day. Additionally, there are no major corporate earnings reports – markets are taking a breather after a previously active week.

November 25, 2025 (Tuesday)

U.S.A: Consumer Confidence Index by the Conference Board for November. The dynamics of this indicator will reflect household confidence levels and may impact investor sentiments in the equity market and indirectly interest in risk assets, including cryptocurrencies.
Quarterly Earnings Reports: A number of large companies will present their financial results. Among them are the tech giant Alibaba (China), as well as American corporations Dell Technologies, Analog Devices, Zoom Video Communications, and enterprise software developer Workday. Additionally, one of the leaders in the electric vehicle market, NIO (China), will report. These corporate earnings reports could set the tone for global equity markets and reflect the state of consumer demand and technology.

November 26, 2025 (Wednesday)

Australia: Release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Q3. Inflation data in Australia is important for understanding the future policy of the Reserve Bank of Australia and may influence the Australian dollar and sentiments in Asian markets.
New Zealand: Meeting of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand. A decision on the interest rate is expected (analysts predict the current level will be maintained). Retail sales data for New Zealand for the last quarter, reflecting the state of the economy and consumer activity, will also be published.
U.S.A: Second estimate of GDP for Q3 and October PCE price index. Revised figures for GDP will show how sustainable economic growth was in the last quarter, while the PCE (Personal Consumption Expenditures) indexes – a key inflation indicator for the Fed – will provide insights into current price trends. This data has the potential to significantly influence expectations regarding the Fed's interest rate, and consequently, the dynamics of the stock market and cryptocurrency market.

November 27, 2025 (Thursday)

Japan: Tokyo Consumer Price Index for November. This indicator is a leading one for national inflation in Japan; any acceleration in price growth may heighten expectations for tightening policy by the Bank of Japan. Any surprises in the CPI data can influence the yen's exchange rate and Asian markets.
U.S.A: National holiday Thanksgiving Day. American financial markets are closed, and trading does not take place. Trading volumes on global exchanges may be reduced, and volatility increased due to low liquidity. Investors will use this day to assess the week's interim results without new data from the U.S.

November 28, 2025 (Friday)

U.S.A: "Black Friday" – a shortened trading session on American exchanges and the start of the holiday sales season. Investors are watching retail chain sales volumes on this day: a successful start to sales may support retailer stocks and overall market optimism, while weak sales may raise concerns about consumer demand.
Europe: Key statistical data is released. In Germany, retail sales data for October will be published, as well as preliminary estimates of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November – key indicators for the eurozone economy. Simultaneously, Switzerland will present GDP data for Q3, reflecting growth rates of that country's economy.
Canada: Publication of GDP for Q3 (as well as monthly GDP for September). This data will show the state of the Canadian economy against the backdrop of changing commodity prices. Results may influence the Canadian dollar's exchange rate and sentiments in commodity markets, which indirectly is important for global investors.

November 29, 2025 (Saturday)

There are no scheduled economic events or corporate earnings publications this Saturday. Markets are awaiting data from China and other events on Sunday, as traders assess the week's outcomes and prepare for the new month.

November 30, 2025 (Sunday)

China: Official Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for November in both the manufacturing and non-manufacturing sectors. These indicators will provide a fresh assessment of the state of the world's second-largest economy. Strong PMI data from China could bolster global risk appetite and support commodity prices, while weak data may heighten concerns over economic slowdown.
OPEC+: Meeting of the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) of OPEC+ countries. The committee will evaluate adherence to oil production quotas and may provide recommendations ahead of the upcoming full OPEC meeting. Any signals from oil producers are critical for the oil market: potential decisions affecting oil supply will reflect on energy prices and, consequently, the stocks of oil and gas companies and the overall dynamics of market indexes.

Conclusions for Investors

The week of November 24 to 30, 2025, promises to be rich in information, combining events from the cryptocurrency market and traditional economics. Significant token unlocks attract the attention of crypto investors: the increase in supply of several altcoins may lead to short-term volatility and pressure on their prices. Especially noteworthy are extreme cases such as that of WalletConnect (WCT), where the unlocking volume is comparable to the current capitalization – market reaction to such an event will test liquidity and investor confidence in the project. At the same time, moderate crypto unlocks (such as Optimism) are likely to proceed without significant disruptions if the overall climate in the cryptocurrency market is favorable.

The macroeconomic indicators and corporate reports of major companies for the week will be pivotal "economic events" for global investors. Inflation data (U.S., Europe, Asia) and central bank decisions (New Zealand) will help shape expectations regarding interest rates and economic growth, directly affecting appetite for risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Concurrently, reports from corporations such as Alibaba, Dell, Zoom, and others will signal the state of corporate profits and consumer demand. Their results could set the direction of stock indexes and, through investor sentiment, indirectly impact digital assets. Thus, it is critical for investors in the cryptocurrency market to consider not only internal factors (token unlocks and other project news) but also the external backdrop – economic statistics and corporate news. The combination of these factors will determine the level of volatility and overall market trend as November concludes. A well-informed assessment and timely analysis of cryptocurrencies and traditional assets will aid investors in making informed decisions during such an eventful week.
