The STBL team recently made a pretty bold decision—not to release any tokens to the secondary market throughout Q1, before the market stabilizes.

Although the original vesting schedule is still in place, the unlocked tokens won’t be entering the market for now. In simple terms, the tokens are still being unlocked on paper, but the actual circulating supply won’t increase.

This is actually a smart move: the market is already highly volatile, and dumping tokens at this time would only increase selling pressure. They’re thinking it through—first stabilize the price, provide a relatively safe environment for long-term holders, and also demonstrate to the community that the project team won’t cash out and run in the short term.

Reducing supply pressure while building trust may be more important than short-term capital inflows. After all, in the current market, survival is everything.
