DappRadar’s closure: an ecosystem record

The people who actually tracked the industry for seven years, who delivered real data and real infrastructure, could not find sustainable revenue.

Well... @DappRadar is shutting down.

This is the reality for real builders.

A piece of Web3 and crypto history ending like this.

The people who actually tracked the industry for seven years, who delivered real data and real infrastructure, could not find sustainable revenue.

That alone tells you everything.

Meanwhile the scammers sit on millions and billions.

The drainers, the paid shillers, the fake KOLs, the serial rug accounts. They thrive. They print money.
They get amplified even from official chsin accounts. They get platformed.
They get rewarded for destroying trust.

And the real builders.
The ones who actually contributed something meaningful.
They close their doors one by one.

This is the brutal truth of the current crypto ecosystem. The incentives are upside down.
The clowns are winning and the people who built the foundations of the space cannot survive.

If this industry keeps rewarding extraction over creation, we will lose the few good parts we still have.

Right now, it is a clown industry.

🔺🔺But do not make the mistake of thinking only others are to blame.🔺🔺

Everyone who loves crypto but never financially supports real infra/ projects is part of the problem.

@DappRadar People are annoyed that I keep pointing out the problems of this space, the lies.

Fuck you Fr.

But it is time for all the fuckers to finally wake up and stop buying and amplifying pure vaporware.
