๐ The Harsh Reality of New Crypto: Only 7% in Profit
By Conor Maloney | July 25, 2026
๐ข The Numbers
๐ธCryptoRank tracked 113 tokens launched since 2024 with $100M+ market cap
๐ธOnly 8 tokens are above their TGE/launch price = 7.1%
105 of 113 are in the red
๐ธMedian return: -95.7% ๐ฌ
๐ The 8 Exceptions
๐ Leaders among the rare winners:
๐ธHYPE - Hyperliquid: +1,519% ๐ Also made S&P Pantera Digital Asset Index
๐ธONDO - Ondo Finance: +101.4%
๐ธEVA - EverValue Coin: +20.3%
๐ธNIGHT - Midnight Network: +16.5%
๐ Note: Even among winners, only 2 did 100%+. The other 6 had double-digit gains at best.
โ Why the Decline?
CryptoRank points to:
๐ธ Sell-offs from early investors/VCs
๐ธ Thin liquidity on new listings
๐ธ Regulatory uncertainty Plus: exploits & crashes over last 2 years
๐ธ Covered sectors: DeFi, Gaming, Infrastructure - no niche was safe.
โ๏ธ Context
๐ธ This is happening while the broader market recovers.
๐ธ Bitcoin > $66,000 this week on ETF inflows + weaker US inflation data.
โณ Bottom line:
๐ธLaunching a token in 2024-2025 was brutal.
๐ธFor new projects, beating launch price has been the exception, not the rule.
