SecondSwap and TokenOps Partner to Extend Token Lifecycle Into Secondary Liquidity

Singapore, Singapore, September 24th, 2025, Chainwire

Partnership connects token lifecycle management with secondary liquidity, strengthening SecondSwap’s position as the marketplace for locked tokens.

SecondSwap, a decentralized marketplace for locked tokens trading, today announced a partnership with TokenOps, a comprehensive token operations and lifecycle management platform.

This integration will extend TokenOps’ lifecycle management into SecondSwap’s secondary marketplace, giving issuers and investors access to liquidity while preserving vesting conditions.

Having distributed over $1 billion in tokens and tracking over $14 bln in TVL for notable clients such as Trusted by 1inch, Morpho, Gelato, and more, TokenOps is one of the largest providers for token management services bringing significant expertise, inventory, and operational depth to the partnership.

A Market Ready for Unlocking

The locked token market is valued at $1.5–$2.5 trillion, representing illiquid assets tied to strict vesting schedules and unlocking periods across allocations for insiders, foundations, and other contributors. Roughly $4.5 billion in tokens unlock each month, yet pre-arranged agreements often delay trading to protect price integrity, manage circulation, and maintain alignment among stakeholders.

SecondSwap addresses this liquidity challenge by enabling issuer-approved, smart contract-enforced secondary markets that respect vesting schedules. The platform introduces fresh capital and strategic investors into play, creating new market dynamics and stronger stakeholder alignment, all without having to expand circulating tokens.

From Locked to Liquid with SecondSwap

Now live on Ethereum, Avalanche, and Solana, SecondSwap is solidifying its market position as the go-to marketplace for token issuers, foundations, and holders seeking to access liquidity options while preserving vesting conditions.

Whether you’re a token issuer or foundation, Web3 project, token management platform, or trader, SecondSwap offers a secondary trading marketplace built for sellers to go from locked to liquid and for buyers to purchase these exclusive locked tokens at discounted prices. 

All trades are issuer-linked, smart contract-enforced, and keep vesting schedules intact.
