Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Token Unlock Tracker — Vesting Schedules & Cliff Alerts Track **upcoming token unlocks** and **vesting schedules** with the numbers that actually move price. This **token unlock calendar** returns, for every upcoming **cliff** or **linear** unlock: the date, the amount released, the **% of circulating supply** unlocked (dilution / sell pressure), the USD value, a **big-unlock** flag, and the **per-beneficiary breakdown** (team / investors / ecosystem). Built for trading bots, AI agents and analysts who need a clean **token vesting API** instead of a screenshot of a website. Most unlock tools give you a calendar. This one gives you **actionable supply-unlock data**: the headline figure is **% of circulating supply**, because a 5% unlock going to early investors is a very different trade than a 0.1% ecosystem drip. ### What it does - **Upcoming unlocks per token** — date, type (`cliff` / `linear` / `mixed`), tokens released. - **% of circulating supply unlocked** — the dilution number that matters, using real circulating supply. - **Big-unlock flag** — flags any unlock above your threshold (default ≥ 1% of circulating supply). - **USD value** — tokens unlocked × live price. - **Beneficiaries** — who receives the unlock (investors, insiders, ecosystem, public sale, farming…) — they don't all sell the same way. - **Lookahead window** — only unlocks in the next *N* days. - **Watchlist or all** — track specific tokens, or auto-scan every protocol with the biggest upcoming unlocks. - **New-only alert mode** — return only unlocks not seen in previous runs (dedup), ideal for scheduled alerts. ### What you get per unlock event | Field | Meaning | |-------|---------| | `unlock_date`, `days_until`, `unlock_timestamp` | When the unlock happens | | `unlock_type` | `cliff`, `linear` or `mixed` | | `tokens_unlocked` | Number of tokens released | | `pct_of_circulating_supply` | **Dilution** — % of circulating supply unlocked | | `pct_of_max_supply` | % of max supply unlocked | | `usd_value` | USD value at current price | | `is_big_unlock` | Above your big-unlock threshold? | | `beneficiaries[]` | Per-recipient amount, category & % of circulating | | `beneficiary_categories` | Distinct recipient classes (insiders, privateSale, ecosystem…) | | `circulating_supply`, `max_supply`, `price_usd` | Context for the numbers | ### Why this one - **% of circulating supply + cliff flags**, not just a date. The differentiator: dilution and sell-pressure, computed for you. - **Beneficiary breakdown** — distinguishes insider/investor unlocks (high dump risk) from ecosystem/staking emissions. - **Big-unlock alerts + new-only mode** — turn the calendar into a high-signal alert stream for scheduled runs. - **Agent- & bot-ready** — one clean JSON row per unlock event, ready for an LLM or a trading strategy. - **Free, official-grade source** — DefiLlama emissions for the vesting schedules, CoinGecko for real circulating supply and price. No fragile scraping. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `tokens` | array | Optional watchlist as DefiLlama slugs / names / CoinGecko ids (e.g. `aptos`, `arbitrum`, `optimism`). Empty = auto-scan the biggest upcoming unlocks. | | `window_days` | integer | Only unlocks within the next N days. Default 30. | | `big_unlock_pct` | number | Flag unlocks ≥ this % of circulating supply. Default 1. | | `only_big_unlocks` | boolean | Return only flagged big unlocks. Default false. | | `alert_new_only` | boolean | Only events new since the last run. Default false. | | `alert_key` | string | Namespace for new-only history. | | `max_items` | integer | Max events returned/charged. Default 50. | #### Example input ```json { "tokens": [], "window_days": 30, "big_unlock_pct": 1, "only_big_unlocks": false, "alert_new_only": false, "max_items": 50 } ```` ### Output One dataset item per unlock event. Real output for an **EIGEN** cliff unlock: ```json { "token": "EigenCloud", "symbol": "EIGEN", "slug": "eigencloud", "gecko_id": "eigenlayer", "chain": null, "unlock_date": "2026-07-01", "unlock_timestamp": 1782933573, "days_until": 2, "unlock_type": "cliff", "tokens_unlocked": 36820227, "pct_of_circulating_supply": 4.97, "pct_of_max_supply": null, "usd_value": 8515893, "is_big_unlock": true, "circulating_supply": 741228567, "circulating_supply_source": "coingecko", "max_supply": null, "price_usd": 0.231283, "beneficiaries": [ { "recipient": "Investors", "category": "privateSale", "unlock_type": "cliff", "amount": 19749031, "pct_of_circulating_supply": 2.66 }, { "recipient": "Early Contributors", "category": "insiders", "unlock_type": "cliff", "amount": 17071196, "pct_of_circulating_supply": 2.3 } ], "beneficiary_categories": ["privateSale", "insiders"], "source": "DefiLlama Emissions + CoinGecko", "source_url": "https://defillama.com/unlocks/eigencloud", "timestamp": "2026-06-29T09:59:29.977Z" } ``` This single row tells a trader: in 2 days, **EIGEN unlocks ~4.97% of circulating supply (~$8.5M)**, and it goes to **investors and early contributors** — a classic sell-pressure event. ### Use cases - **Trading bots** — avoid or short tokens ahead of large insider unlocks; gate entries on `pct_of_circulating_supply`. - **AI research agents** — a single tool call returns structured, ranked unlock events to reason over. - **Unlock alerts** — schedule with `alert_new_only: true` and `only_big_unlocks: true` for a clean, high-signal feed. - **Token & fund due diligence** — quantify forward dilution and the insider/investor share of upcoming supply. ### Pricing Pay-per-result: charged **per unlock event returned** (target **$0.003 per result**, i.e. **$3 / 1,000**), plus Apify platform usage. `max_items` caps your spend; `only_big_unlocks` and `alert_new_only` keep scheduled runs cheap. (Final price is set on the Store listing.) ### Categories `Developer tools`, `Automation`, `Agents`. ### Data source & method - **Vesting schedules:** [DefiLlama](https://defillama.com/unlocks) emissions dataset (free, public) — `cliffAllocations` / `linearAllocations` per unlock event. - **Circulating supply & price:** [CoinGecko](https://www.coingecko.com) public API. When a token isn't on CoinGecko, circulating supply is derived from cumulative past unlocks and flagged via `circulating_supply_source: "derived"`. - **% of circulating supply** = tokens unlocked ÷ circulating supply. **% of max supply** = tokens unlocked ÷ max supply (`null` when the token has no fixed max supply). ### Notes & limits - Coverage follows DefiLlama's tracked protocols (hundreds of major tokens with documented vesting). Tokens without a published schedule won't appear. - In "all" mode the actor scans the protocols with the largest upcoming emissions; use the `tokens` watchlist to force specific tokens regardless of size. - Informational data, **not financial advice**. Unlock schedules can change if a project amends its tokenomics. ### Use as an MCP tool (AI agents) This Actor is available as an **MCP tool** for AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, etc.) through Apify’s hosted MCP server. Point your MCP client at: ``` https://mcp.apify.com/?actors=aspiring_barricade/crypto-token-unlock-tracker ``` The Actor’s input schema becomes the tool’s parameters automatically. An Apify API token is required. ### Use in n8n Run this Actor inside your [n8n](https://n8n.io) workflows using the official **Apify** node (search “Apify” in the n8n nodes panel) and select the Actor `aspiring_barricade/crypto-token-unlock-tracker`. A dedicated community node (`n8n-nodes-token-unlock-tracker`) is also being published to npm for one-click installation via **n8n → Settings → Community Nodes**. # Actor input Schema ## `tokens` (type: `array`): Optional list of tokens to track, as DefiLlama protocol slugs / names / CoinGecko ids (e.g. "aptos", "arbitrum", "optimism", "sui"). Leave EMPTY to auto-scan all protocols with the biggest upcoming unlocks. ## `window_days` (type: `integer`): Only return unlocks happening within the next N days. ## `big_unlock_pct` (type: `number`): Flag an unlock as a "big unlock" when it releases at least this percentage of the circulating supply (dilution / sell-pressure). Example: 1 = 1%. ## `only_big_unlocks` (type: `boolean`): If on, return only unlocks flagged as big (>= the threshold above). Great for high-signal alerts. ## `alert_new_only` (type: `boolean`): Return only unlock events not seen in previous runs (persisted per alert key). Perfect for scheduled monitoring. ## `alert_key` (type: `string`): Namespace for new-only history so different saved watchlists keep separate state. ## `max_items` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of unlock events to return (and charge). ## Actor input object example ```json { "tokens": [], "window_days": 30, "big_unlock_pct": 1, "only_big_unlocks": false, "alert_new_only": false, "alert_key": "default", "max_items": 50 } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
