Crypto has a failure problem, and the data now puts numbers on it. CoinGecko found that 53.2% of the tokens it tracked between mid-2021 and the end of 2025 are no longer trading. Most of those failures were counted in a single year. This article draws on four sources. Three cover token failures, including CoinGecko’s own dataset. The fourth is an academic study of 845 crypto exchanges. Together the sources show how often projects fail, when it happens and what failed projects have in common. A quick note on method.
