DappRadar Closes After 7 Years, Leaving a Void in the Decentralized App Landscape

After seven years providing critical insights into blockchain applications (dApps), DappRadar has announced its closure due to rising operational costs. The platform, known for offering comprehensive data on dApp performance and user activity across major blockchains, found itself unable to sustain operations despite significant growth over the years. 2025 is a challenging time for many Web3 businesses as they navigate innovation while balancing financial sustainability, especially during market downturns or periods of low user adoption.
