DeFi Survivors of 2022 Crashes Shutting Down in 2026
DeFi projects that survived the 2022 Terra and FTX collapses are shutting down in 2026, per analysts. The cause is ecosystem fragmentation rather than consolidation, meaning the market is splintering rather than unifying. This trend challenges the assumption that fewer standalone venues lead to a healthier ecosystem.
