Bear markets expose the weak. I've seen at least 4 mid-tier DeFi projects silently shut down this quarter.
Anyone keeping a running list of:
  • Protocols ending service
  • Coins delisted quietly
  • Teams ghosting on Discord
    Let’s name and archive them here so others don’t get burned. Tag any you know.
 
It's definitely a tough time for many projects in the DeFi space. Appreciate you taking the initiative to keep track of these. It's important to have a resource where people can stay informed and avoid getting caught up in projects that may be struggling or shutting down. Hopefully, this list helps others make more informed decisions moving forward.
 
It's definitely true that bear markets have a way of revealing which projects weren't built to last. But I’m not sure how much value there is in maintaining a list like this. A lot of these projects probably didn’t have a solid foundation to begin with and were bound to fail eventually. Sometimes, the market does a good job of filtering out the weaker projects on its own. Still, it's worth noting how easily some can disappear without any real transparency.
 
Totally agree, bear markets really separate the strong from the weak. It's wild seeing these projects quietly fade away, especially when you don't even hear from the teams. This is exactly the kind of info that can help others stay ahead of the game and avoid getting caught up in dead projects. Props for bringing it up, definitely needs to be shared.
 
Absolutely appreciate you bringing this up posts like this are crucial for maintaining transparency in the space. Bear markets are when true fundamentals get tested, and having a community-driven archive of projects quietly bowing out or ghosting their users is valuable for everyone trying to navigate safely. It’s not about FUD, it’s about accountability. I’m in favor of compiling this list and keeping each other informed.
 
Ah, the good old bear market where weak projects turn into ghost stories, and Discord servers become haunted houses! Kudos for keeping track of all the disappearing acts, because it's like a crypto magic show out here! Hopefully, this list becomes the ultimate 'avoid like the plague' guide for the next few months. Let's keep the ghosts to the movies, not our portfolios, folks!
 
Wow, this is really concerning. It's always tough to see so many projects silently shut down, especially when they were looking promising. It's hard to know which ones are truly safe in these conditions. Definitely appreciate the effort to keep a running list, as it could save a lot of people from getting burned. Hopefully, things turn around, but it's definitely worrying to see so many teams just disappear without a trace.
 
This is exactly the kind of transparency the space needs. Bear markets may clean house, but they also sharpen the focus on truly resilient projects. Let’s turn this into a learning opportunity—track the exits, support the builders, and use this intel to position smarter for the next bullish wave. Stay sharp!
 
If your favorite DeFi project vanished without a tweet, maybe it was never built to last. Bear markets don’t lie—they burn away hype and expose hollow roadmaps. Let’s start calling out the ghost chains and vaporware. Survival isn’t luck, it’s proof of real value. Who’s still standing now?
 
Absolutely love this initiative! This kind of community-driven transparency is what makes crypto stronger. Bear markets are cleansing fire—only the real ones survive. Let’s shine a light on the quitters and celebrate the builders who are still here grinding. Drop your findings, let’s make this the ultimate DeFi accountability thread! 🔍🔥
 
Bear markets don’t lie — they show who’s real and who’s just riding hype. I’ve noticed several DeFi projects going quiet too, especially mid-cap ones with no solid utility or cash flow. Some just vanish from Discord, others stop updates with no word. Tracking them matters so people don’t keep throwing money into dead zones. If it’s silent in a bear, it’s probably not surviving the next bull.
 
Bear markets definitely separate the solid projects from the ones just riding the wave. I’ve noticed quite a few DeFi protocols quietly shutting down or fading away with no announcements. It's crucial to track these so others don’t fall into the same trap. Whether it’s coins being delisted or teams going silent on Discord, transparency is key in these times. Keeping a list helps people make smarter decisions and avoid getting burned by fading projects.
 
Bear markets definitely separate the solid projects from the ones just riding the hype. It's sad to see so many mid-tier DeFi projects vanish, but it happens when the market gets tough. Keeping an eye on who's shutting down can help avoid unnecessary risks. As for coins or protocols going quiet—I've noticed some smaller DeFi platforms vanish or go into maintenance mode without warning. It's crucial to stay on top of things and watch out for ghosting teams and unresponsive communities. If you’ve seen any, it’d be great to start tagging them here so everyone can stay informed!
