The Unlock Is Routine; Its Position on the Chart Is Not
Arbitrum’s official distribution documents state that tokens allocated to the team and investors follow four-year vesting arrangements. The first release occurred one year after the March 2023 token-generation event, followed by monthly releases through the remaining three years.
According to Tokenomist’s schedule, approximately 92.65 million ARB is due for release on August 16. The published schedule establishes the date but does not provide a confirmed execution hour.
