Fantom (FTM) loss eases as the foundation soothes investor concerns
The TVL for the Fantom DeFi ecosystem has been down more than 20% in the last 24 hours. Solidly and its yield optimizer protocol Solidex contributed the most significant TVL slump following news of Cronje’s exit. The removal of liquidity from these projects saw their TVLs fall more than 30% over the last 24 hours.
Fantom’s native coin, FTM, also took a nosedive during the period, sliding 20% from $1.71 to $1.32. FTM has since recovered somewhat and is trading at $1.44 as of writing.
Until now, a total of 25 DeFi applications will be terminated starting from April 3. Yearn.Finance, Keep3r Network, Solidly, and other protocols are abandoned projects.
1/ As many of you are aware, Anton, who works with Andre, tweeted that they were “terminating” 25 projects. This was misunderstood. They are “terminating” their involvement, but handing over anything they run to the existing teams.
