ARKM is shifting from an analytics platform to a DEX, but faces challenges of a massive token unlock and a sharp decline from its all‑time high.
OGAudit Web3 Research: @arkham $ARKM - The Blockchain Deanonymization Platform Pivoting to DEX Before Its Biggest Unlock?
Arkham Intelligence has been building the onchain entity attribution layer since 2023 now pivoting from analytics only to a full trading and intelligence ecosystem:
- ULTRA AI engine labels blockchain addresses to real world entities like funds, exchanges and whales with the Profiler aggregating entity holdings and history, the Visualizer generating network relationship graphs and Custom Alerts monitoring specific onchain activity in real time. The Intel Exchange processes bounties and auctions where users stake ARKM to buy or sell intelligence generating $18M in December 2025 trading volume.
- CEO Miguel Morel confirmed a pivot from centralized exchange to fully decentralized perpetual futures exchange in February 2026 targeting the DEX perps market that nearly tripled in volume in 2025. ARKM powers transaction fees, bounty staking, governance voting and the DATA Program rewarding accurate address labels with token incentives.
- The September 2026 unlock will release 199 million ARKM equivalent to 88% of current circulating supply with the July 2025 unlock already having caused a 24% price drop. 77.5% of the 1B total supply remains locked until 2027 per vesting schedule.
Is $18M monthly intel volume, a DEX pivot, ULTRA’s institutional grade attribution and mobile app launch the setup for ARKM’s recovery before September’s massive unlock or does a 96.2% ATH decline, an unlock event equivalent to 88% of current float and the existential deanonymization platform brand controversy confirm that ARKM’s utility growth needs to be exceptional to absorb what’s coming?
