2025 - the year the most crypto’s failed
It’s commonly understood that the sheer number of crypto projects has exploded since 2020. And the time required to do your own research (DYOR) and climbed exponentially as well.
All while the large caps remain uncontested upon their thrones. Yes, those being BTC and ETH! On the flip side the low end coins (you know their nickname it starts with an S and is four letters) are you aware that 53% of Crypto Tokens launched from 2021 to today have failed. 2025 took the top tier with the most failures.
The report itself comes from CoinGecko, a quick synopsis of the report shows that nearly 20.2 million tokens that entered during the 2021-2025 period, 53.2% are no longer actively traded. While 2025 contributed 11.6 million of those alone! So, 2025 contributed to 86% of all token deaths in the past 5-years all while the US was opening up to all things crypto and laying regulator frameworks.
Summary
It does not matter why these token failed what matters is that you don't end up holding the empty bags. Which brings about an entire new realm to DYOR doesn't it? Stay sharp my friends!
