@DigiByteCoin reply (Wed Oct 21 22:26:35 +0000 2026): @top7ico DigiByte still going strong after 12+ years. Original @top7ico (Wed Oct 21 11:35:09 +0000 2026): 81 Crypto Projects Shut Down in 2026 The bear market keeps claiming victims. Since January, 81 crypto projects have announced they’re shutting down, including some of the industry’s biggest names: • Exchanges: BitMEX, BitMart, CoinEx, AscendEX, https://t.co/bINuTOETEh Chains & L2s: Blast, Abstract, Polygon zkEVM, Loopring, Sophon • DeFi: Balancer, Radiant, ZeroLend, Angle, Seamless • NFTs & wallets: Blur, Foundation, Magic Eden Wallet, Leap Wallet The reasons are mostly the same: trading volumes collapsed, airdrop farmers left, and some protocols never recovered from hacks, as with Balancer and Radiant. April was the worst month with 16 shutdowns, and the pace hasn’t slowed since: Blur, Abstract and Blast all announced closures in October alone.
