#AirdropStepByStep More than 50% of cryptocurrencies issued since 2021 have failed. More than 50% of all cryptocurrencies issued over the past few years on decentralized exchanges (DEX) have failed, according to a new report from CoinGecko. Of nearly 7 million cryptocurrencies registered on the GeckoTerminal portal since 2021, 3.7 million have ceased trading and are considered failures. The exact figure mentioned in the report is 52.7%, with most of these coins failing in 2024 and early 2025. Alarmingly, in the first quarter of 2025 alone, 1.8 million tokens went bankrupt, accounting for 49.7% of all registered bankruptcy cases among projects, the report states.
The authors of the study believe that this sharp decline in token survival may be linked to the overall instability of the market, especially following the inauguration of US President Donald Trump in January 2025.
