The crypto market has just witnessed one of its most brutal quarters on record, with a staggering 1.8 million tokens dying in the first three months of 2025 alone. According to a damning new study by CoinGecko, these Q1 failures account for nearly half of all token deaths in the last five years. The numbers captured in the report are sobering: nearly one in four tokens launched since 2021 are now considered dead. At the heart of this token extinction event is a storm triggered by a market correction following Bitcoin’s brief post-inauguration rally in January 2025 and the unchecked rise of token generators like Pump.fun. While the platform, launched in early 2024, has democratized token creation, critics argue that it has also contributed to diluting the industry’s integrity. It allows users to launch coins in mere minutes without needing any coding knowledge, fueling a meme coin gold rush that overwhelmed crypto platforms and flooded markets with short-lived speculative assets. Since mid-2021, GeckoTerminal has listed nearly 7 million tokens, but according to the report, 52.7%, amounting to more than 3.7 million cryptocurrencies, have now stopped trading and have officially been categorized as “failed.” While the sharp uptick in failures started in 2024, Q1 2025 has been particularly brutal, with at least 1.8 million tokens going dark by March 31. Historically, the rate at which crypto projects collapsed was relatively modest. Per the CoinGecko survey, out of more than 428,000 tokens listed in 2021, only 2,584 failed. The number of listed crypto assets increased to 724,706 in 2022, with failures also growing significantly to 213,075. These figures remained fairly consistent in 2023, with 835,183 created and about 245,000 dying. However, in 2024, the number of launched tokens skyrocketed, going past the 3 million mark thanks in part to Pump.fun. Such was the amount of activity on the platform that at one point it became the main driver behind Solana’s recent dominance of the decentralized exchange (DEX) market. Still, the high number of coins churned resulted in just as many deaths, hitting north of 1.3 million by the end of that year. 2025 seems to have picked up where 2024 left off. Only slightly more than 117,000 tokens out of the 1.93 million that were created in the first three months of the year have survived, meaning just under 94% fizzled out unceremoniously.

Some things that I assumed are understood without saying but for those who are new to all this: Most of these cards have a “minimum spend” to get the bonus. The assumption here is that you can meet this spend without changing your spending habits. If you can’t, don’t get them. You also need to have a solid credit score to get approved- if you don’t, use this as motivation to get a better one. For me this type of stuff is “just for fun” but for others a 10-12k “bonus” just for having a good credit score is a once in a lifetime vacation for 2 or a family of 4. And again goes without saying, but you shouldn’t be accumulating debt on your credit card. The right way to do this is to not change your spending habits but rather change your method of payment. Instead of using a debit card, cash or even crypto to pay expenses, use a credit card (responsibly), pay it off completely every month so you pay zero interest, rack up points, and enjoy trips/vacations you probs never thought were possible. This only works if you spend within your means and completely avoid interest charges- those will wipe away any benefit you’re getting from points in an instant. Again, all the above I assumed goes without saying, but for those who really are new to all this keep the above in mind.

#Bitcoin / $BTC Gonna be a fun summer fellas

remember when a soy eater jeet dumped $300k of $tibbir at 30M mcap despite the dip, frogs were having fun in the chat, kept the good vibes, and insta slurped the dip not an average community we are chilling at 35M now, unfazed, still in stealth @MessariCrypto paying
