A new CoinGecko report reveals that more than half of all crypto tokens launched in the past five years have failed. The study highlights a sharp decline in token survivability, particularly in 2024 and early 2025. The memecoin frenzy and market turbulence are cited as key factors behind the collapse.

  • 52.7% of crypto tokens tracked by CoinGecko failed between 2021 and 2025, with 86.5% collapsing in 2024–2025.
  • Pump.fun, a Solana-based memecoin launchpad, contributed to a surge in low-quality projects and scams.
  • Market turbulence, including political events, correlated with a sharp decline in token survivability.
