Crypto Altcoins: Peak of Failures in Q1 2025 – CoinGecko Report

The cryptocurrency market is constantly evolving, with a new wave of altcoins entering the scene daily. However, while some succeed and thrive, the majority of tokens fail to gain traction. New data from CoinGecko paints a concerning picture: 1.8 million cryptocurrencies failed in just the first quarter of 2025 alone. This represents a significant portion – nearly one-quarter – of all tokens released since 2021. The spike was tied to increased market volatility, with platforms like Pump Fun playing a key role in this trend.
