In Tokenomist's claim lifecycle, every token unlock progresses through three stages: Whitepaper, Committed, and Completed. An announced claim occupies the critical middle stage — the moment when a project team moves beyond the original whitepaper estimate and publicly declares the specific amount they intend to claim. This disclosure transforms an estimate into a firm commitment, giving traders and investors a concrete data point for anticipating supply changes. On the Tokenomist platform, announced claims appear as an "Announced" badge on Upcoming Unlocks within the Supply Analytics tab. For tokens like Hyperliquid, where the team periodically claims tokens from the assistance fund or other allocations, the announced status provides an early warning signal. The announced amount may match the whitepaper schedule exactly, or it may differ — Tokenomist flags both cases so users can quickly identify deviations from the expected unlock plan. The value of tracking announced claims lies in the lead time they provide. Between announcement and on-chain execution, traders can assess the potential market impact, adjust positions, and monitor whether the claim amount represents a material percentage of circulating supply. Tokenomist aggregates these announcements across all tracked tokens, making it possible to identify periods of concentrated supply expansion before the tokens actually hit the market.
