Some of them suffered badly designed tokenomics or lost their hypes however some of them were intentionally designed to rug their investors such as Crabada on Avalanche Network.

For your information, Avalanche Foundation just funded them because they were launching a subnet called as Swimmer Network. They launched it and few months later, scammer team of Crabada vanished.

Avalanche Network is good but they need proper management by the means of business.

LATEST: ⚡ Roughly 93% of Web3 gaming projects are now "effectively dead," according to Caladan, with token values down 95% from 2022 peaks and studio funding collapsing 93% by 2025.

@elonmusk True and this should be a more important issue for US taxpayers rather than these funds are being used by Trump to mess with Iran.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@FabianoSolana Probably it's more because of Phantom's pioneering position amongst Solana wallets. Even though people are not as satisfied as before with it, they are expected to be hesitant to switch. Jupiter needs to advertise their advantages to make this switch easier.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@FigoETH It's apples and oranges tbh.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@blockchainchick What's your call for the upcoming system?

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@sircryptotips How will it be replaced in your opinion?

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

Intent-based UX is quietly replacing transactions lately.

Protocols like Anoma and UniswapX are shifting the model significantly. Now you don’t submit a transaction but kinda submitting an intent.

→ “Swap at best price”
→ “Bridge with lowest cost”

Solvers compete to fulfill it.

Sounds clean. But you’re no longer interacting with the chain instead you’re trusting whoever fulfills your intent.

Execution is outsourced. What do you think about it?🤔

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@DominicCarb I don't know about lawyers but don't you also think that accountants could be taken over by more complex computer processes?

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@blockchainchick Seriously, why would anyone do this?😩 People are devolving.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@FabianoSolana This is so 2017.😁

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

Ethereum didn’t scale. It fragmented.

The rise of Layer 2s like Arbitrum and Optimism solved fees but introduced a new problem:

→ Liquidity is scattered
→ Users are siloed
→ Bridging adds friction (and risk)
We replaced one bottleneck with many smaller ones.

Yes, transactions are cheaper.

But the user experience? Still messy.

Scaling isn’t just about speed. It’s about coherence.

Until that’s solved, mass adoption remains “almost there.”

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

Oracles are the most fragile pillar in crypto.

Blockchains don’t know anything, instead they rely on external data.
That’s where systems like Chainlink come in.

But here’s the uncomfortable truth:

→ If the data is wrong, the contract is wrong
→ If the feed is delayed, the system is exploitable
→ If the oracle is compromised, everything built on it breaks

Smart contracts aren’t trustless. They just outsource trust.

MEV didn’t disappear. It just got more sophisticated.

With MEV-Boost and proposer-builder separation, Ethereum tried to contain extraction.

But instead of removing MEV…
it outsourced it.

Now:
→ Builders compete in private auctions
→ Order flow gets fragmented
→ Transparency drops

The chain is public. The game isn’t.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@FigoETH True. When mining becomes a burden at BTC side, it is also prone to this.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

This is an encouragement rather than "being sentenced".

California Man Sentenced to 70 Months in Prison for Role in $263 Million Cryptocurrency Scam: The defendant laundered millions of dollars for members of the scheme and received luxury goods, including expensive vehicles, in exchange for his illicit services. He also converted stolen cryptocurrency into fiat cash to procure mansions for his co-conspirators. https://t.co/qqDvJXNI8F

@garrytan A true and unmanipulated open source science is every scientist's dream. However it is mostly stuck in the ownership and intellectual property rights of the data as not every "scientist" acts in a respective way towards your labor.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@cremieuxrecueil True but it was always the same at science side. These problems are not today's problems and a scientist is ethically obliged to abide the basic rules of science ethics.

[Frodo @GemFrodo]

@ASvanevik Good one.😁
