September has not been the greatest of months when it comes to crypto prices. Especially when it comes to September of the year following the BTC halving. Be it 2017, 2021, or 2025, the years after BTC halving, September has been a curse foretold. In such gloomy conditions, there will be $874 million worth of crypto unlocked into the market during the first week of September. In this article, we will consider some of the top tokens that will be unlocked within this week.
Jito Labs (JTO) will unlock 11.3 million tokens in three days
Jito Labs is a pioneering tech company that builds high-performance MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) infrastructure for the Solana blockchain. Founded in 2021 by Lucas Bruder and Zano Sherwani, the company is headquartered in the U.S. and focuses on making MEV more democratic and profitable for validators, stakers, and traders.
The JTO (Jito Governance Token) is the native governance token of the Jito Network—a liquid staking and MEV infrastructure protocol built on the Solana blockchain. JTO empowers community members to actively participate in shaping the network’s evolution.
In three days, JTO will unlock JTO 11.31 million, which is 1.13% of the total supply into the market. Based on the current market price of $1.87, the Jito tokens released will be around $21.17 million, which is 3.05% of the market capitalization. On the daily chart, JTO is trading below the daily opening market price of $1.90, after gaining 0.48%.
Immutable (IMX) will unlock nearly 97% of tokens tomorrow
IMX is the native ERC-20 utility and governance token of Immutable X, a Layer-2 scaling solution for the Ethereum blockchain. Designed to power NFT and gaming experiences, IMX is integral to the platform’s ecosystem. Immutable X enables fast, gas-free NFT minting and trading via zk-rollup tech (ZK-STARKs), scaling up to around 9,000 TPS—all while maintaining Ethereum’s security.
On September 5, Immutable will unlock IMX 24.52M (1.23% of Total Supply) in two rounds. Based on IMX tokens’ current price of $0.51, the token unlock will be worth $ 12.68 million (1.28% of Market Cap). With this token unlock more than 97% of the project’s tokens will be released.
Spectral (SPEC) will unlock 2.56 million tokens in two days
Spectral (ticker: SPEC) is the native utility and governance token of Spectral Labs—a blockchain-native platform that focuses on powering autonomous on-chain agents via AI and machine learning. These agents can be deployed to perform tasks like trading, interacting with DeFi protocols, or managing workflows, all without centralized oversight. Agent Creation & Usage: Used to deploy and interact with autonomous agents.
Marketplace Activity: Participants pay SPEC to access and use agents.
Staking & Rewards: Stake SPEC for fee discounts, to boost earnings for agent creators, and earn staking rewards.

Spectral will unlock 2.56 million SPEC (2.56% of Total Supply), which at the present price of $0.43 per token will accumulate to $ 1.10M (12.4% of Market Cap). With this unlock, which is scheduled to happen in a couple of days, the total token unlocks will hit 26.5% approximately.
Out of the 2.56 million token unlock, 1.9 million of the tokens will be for investors, while the rest of the 0.66K tokens will be for the team and contributors.
With more than $111 million worth of tokens unlocked in the market just today, the crypto total market cap is still rising–despite the excess in supply. It is currently trading inside a falling wedge, which, when the altcoin season gets underway, will reach high altitudes. However, the market cap will need to break the resistance at the 50-day MA at 3.79 trillion.
