According to a report by FinanceFeeds citing RootData, around 70 crypto projects shut down, filed for bankruptcy, announced cessation of operations, or were classified as inactive in the first half of 2026. These projects span multiple sectors, including DeFi, NFT, blockchain gaming, Layer 2, wallets, infrastructure, and DAO tools. The report notes that this statistic doesn’t equate to 70 formal bankruptcies but includes voluntary shutdowns, bankruptcies, and long-term inactive projects. FinanceFeeds believes that current crypto funding is flowing more toward BTC, large-cap assets, ETFs, and regulated infrastructure. Smaller projects can no longer rely solely on narratives, token incentives, user growth, or funding history to survive. Sustainable revenue and product-market fit are becoming critical for project survival. https://(wublock123.com)/news/70-crypto-projects-shut-down-or-inactive-h1-2026-63980
