Weekly Analysis
Mass Token Failures Reveal Industry-Wide Weakness
The memecoin market is undergoing a sharp correction, with data from CoinGecko revealing an alarming trend: over half of all crypto tokens launched since 2021 have failed, and the first quarter of 2025 marked the worst period on record.
Research analyst Shaun Paul Lee reported that 1.8 million tokens died in Q1 alone, accounting for nearly a quarter of all tokens launched in the past four years.
This unprecedented die-off highlights the increasing fragility of speculative tokens in a volatile market environment.

Lee attributes this wave of collapses to broader market instability following Donald Trump's inauguration and a subsequent downturn in both crypto and equities.
