For one year after TGE, no core team or investor tokens were released.
In less than 3 months, that changes with a bang.
A major cliff unlock will happen on the 2nd of November and linear vesting for investors will commence daily releases worth millions of $$$.
The circulating $TIA supply will be massively inflated and likely, a lot of sell pressure will be added to the market from investors that are still sitting on multiple X and are looking to cash out.

If you've been following me for a while, you know that generally, I'm bullish on @CelestiaOrg and its ecosystem.
However, as an investor, we have to look at $TIA as an asset critically and an addition of sell pressure like this can negatively impact price action even if other things are going great.
That's why you should always try to do your research holistically and when making investment decisions, consider all the key factors (and that includes tokenomics, investor unlocks, etc.)
So, what's your plan amid this major unlock?
Will you continue to hold & stake?
