So, I scrolled through X a few days ago, as I always do, and I came across the news that OverProtocol had completely shut down its blockchain and Monad suspension. Based on my personal experience with this project, it reinforced in me the decline in the Web3 space. I pushed hard on OverProtocol and Monad because I thought I was early. With OverProtocol, it started with me daily opening the Over app (originally OverWallet, later renamed OverFlex), claiming my rewards, answering whatever little quiz or check-in they had, collecting points as if my life depended on it. I referred friends and family just to build up those friend cards for referral bonuses. I remember a friend buying the node setup just to run OverNode 24/7. I completed every testnet mission, completed partner quests on OKX Cryptopedia, and made sure I passed their Sybil checks. I was early, consistent, and efficient. My friends and I hyped each other up, hoping for the life-changing airdrop that would finally validate all the hours. All that… for less than fifty dollars when it finally dropped. Dust!!! Literally dust after grinding hard. Then there was Monad. We treated that testnet like a full-time job. I minted every NFT I could get my hands on, especially grinding the Monadverse collection because they made it clear that those holders would receive something special. I minted Morkies, Monais, Lil Chogstars, the Chog SBTs… you name it. I was constantly topping up testnet MON from faucets just to pay gas fees for swaps, deposits, stakes, and random transactions across dozens of dApps. I appeared on Cult DEX, aPriori, Primus, and every project that emerged. I did the Layer3 quests, the daily campaigns, and maintained 5-day streaks. My wallet was active! I believed the chain was going to explode and reward the true degens who had been there from the start. In the end? A Gmonad NFT building on Monad worth around $200 which I got from a whitelist was the grand prize after almost a year of gas, time, and energy. Everything else? Radio silence. And now? OverProtocol completely shut down their entire infrastructure a few days ago, including wallets, nodes, and explorers, all gone due to financial issues. Monad’s official X account was suspended unexpectedly, although they’ve returned now. I realised that when entering the Web3 space, 80% of people face some of what I went through, and they check out of Web3 for good. They simply get tired after showing up, referring, mining, minting, transacting, and believing.

𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐡𝐮𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧. 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 as of April 28, 2026, all services were taken offline this isn’t temporary, it’s a permanent shutdown tools like OverWallet, OverNode, block explorer, and other core services are no longer accessible In short, the entire ecosystem that made the chain usable is gone 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐢𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝: ➛ the project reportedly ran out of funds and couldn’t keep operations running ➛ that's the simple reality behind the shutdown 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐧 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐬: ➛ some users may now find their funds inaccessible or difficult to recover ➛ liquidity across the ecosystem is effectively gone this situation highlights a bigger issue in the space: a lot of so called “decentralized” L1s still depend heavily on central teams. and when that team can’t sustain itself, the whole system breaks. So it raises the question, how decentralized is it really if everything collapses when funding stops? Too many L1s, not enough real users or revenue. And when the money dries up, the project follows.

over protocol just shut down here is what happened 👇 - all services stopped on april 28, 2026 - and yeah... it is permanent - things like overwallet, overnode, block explorer, etc. are no longer accessible - basically everything that keeps the chain usable why it happened - they ran out of money and could not sustain operations anymore - it is as simple as that how this affects users - funds could become stuck or harder to access - liquidity is likely gone this exposes the truth about many “decentralized” l1s if the team pulls the plug... everything collapses so yeah... that does not sound so decentralized, does it? too many l1s and not enough users or revenue so when funding dries up... they shutdown...

Over Protocol @overprotocol ประกาศปิดตัวลงเเล้ว เนื่องจากปัญหาข้อจำกัดทางการเงิน โดยหยุดดำเนินการโครงสร้างพื้นฐานและบริการต่าง ๆ ของ Over Protocol รวมถึง OverWallet, OverNode, OverFlex, RPC endpoints, Block Explorer และ APIs ทั้งหมด . ช่วงนี้จะเป็นช่วงที่คัดโปรเจคที่ไม่มีศักยภาพออก โปรเจค Web3 หลายตัวทยอยปิดตัวลงครับ ส่วนตัวที่อยู่รอดในตลาดหมีก็คือเเข็งเเกร่ง

⚠️Thêm 1 dự án đóng cửa – thị trường quá khốc liệt Altcoin nếu không có nội tại mạnh dòng tiền duy trì gần như không thể sống sót qua giai đoạn này… 🚨 Over Protocol thông báo chính thức đóng cửa toàn bộ dự án ☑️ Dừng vĩnh viễn: OverWallet, OverNode, OverFlex, RPC, explorer, APIs… 📍 Lý do: hết nguồn lực tài chính 👉 Dù Layer 1 vẫn tồn tại về mặt lý thuyết, nhưng thực tế gần như không còn hoạt động khi team rút hoàn toàn 💰 Từng được đầu tư mạnh: Raise ~8M USD (2023) Backer: SK Inc., Netmarble, NaverZ, DSC Investment… ⏳ Từ mainnet, staking, NFT → shutdown chưa đầy 2 năm 🔥 Cộng đồng đang phản ứng mạnh: - Đòi unstake $OVER, Rút NFT và có nghi vấn “exit scam” 📌 Case này cho AE thấy: Không phải cứ có funding mainnet là sống được Có Anh em dính đến dự án này không vậy?

DAY 9 of @SoSoValueCrypto Over Foundation announced that, due to funding constraints, it has ceased operations of infrastructure and services related to the Over protocol, including OverWallet, OverNode, OverFlex, RPC nodes, block explorers, and API endpoints. Additionally, the official statement indicated there are no plans to restore these services. Coinbase will list Virtuals Protocol ($VIRTUAL) for spot trading on April 29. If liquidity conditions are met and trading is supported, the VIRTUAL-USD trading pair will open at or after 9:00 AM Pacific Time.

Over Protocol ( @overprotocol )'de Dükkanı Kapattı & Adaya Veda Etti. Neden Kapattılar? ➜ Mali Kısıtlamalar: Vakıf, projeyi sürdürmek için yeterli finansal kaynağa sahip olmadığını açıkça belirtti. Ekonomik yetersizlikler nedeniyle operasyonlar durduruldu. ➜ Altyapı Hizmetlerinin Kesilmesi: OverWallet, OverNode ve OverFlex gibi kullanıcıların ağa erişimini sağlayan tüm araçlar kapatıldı. Bu hizmetlerin bir daha açılmayacağı ifade edildi. ➜ Sürdürülebilirlik Sorunu: Teknik olarak ağ "merkeziyetsiz" olsa da, vakıf desteği olmadan blok basmanın devam etmesi imkansıza yakın görülüyor. Yani proje, kendi ayakları üzerinde duracak olgunluğa erişmeden kaynakları tüketti. Sıra yapma abicim yol dolu hadi hadi. 🚔 Düt Düt🚔 GGWP - Next.

OVER PROTOCOL IS GONE The Over Foundation just officially announced the sunset of the entire Over Protocol. All services shut down: • OverWallet • OverNode • OverFlex • RPC endpoints • Block explorer • APIs They’re not coming back. Even though it’s a Layer 1 mainnet and “decentralized in design”, the Foundation says the chain is highly likely to stop producing blocks without their infrastructure. A project that started with the dream of “a Layer 1 that belongs to the people” is now shutting down due to financial constraints. #OverProtocol #OVER #Crypto #Layer1 #Altcoins

Over Foundation 发文宣布 Over Protocol 将进入停止运营阶段。因资金约束，基金会已停止 OverWallet、OverNode、OverFlex、RPC、区块浏览器及 API 等基础设施与服务，且不计划恢复。Over Protocol 为 Layer1 主网，尽管设计上去中心化，但基金会退出后链上出块将高度依赖独立验证者是否继续运行客户端，基金会无法保证网络能持续运行。wublock123.com/news/news-602…

OVER PROTOCOL IS DEAD... The Over Foundation is officially terminating the @OverProtocol Layer 1 network, citing financial constraints. All core infrastructure, including OverWallet, OverNode, and block explorer services, have been discontinued with no plans for restoration. Due to financial constraints, we have discontinued operation of our infrastructure and services for Over Protocol, including OverWallet, OverNode, OverFlex, our RPC endpoints, the block explorer, and our APIs. We do not plan to restore these services. While the network remains decentralized in design, the Foundation admits the chain is unlikely to remain operational without its active RPC and API support.

Sunsetting Over Protocol We, the Over Foundation, are announcing the sunset of Over Protocol. Due to financial constraints, we have discontinued operation of our infrastructure and services for Over Protocol, including OverWallet, OverNode, OverFlex, our RPC endpoints, the block explorer, and our APIs. We do not plan to restore these services. Over Protocol is a Layer 1 mainnet, and the network is decentralized in design. However, with the Foundation discontinuing its services, it is highly likely that the chain will not continue to operate in practice. The continued production of blocks depends on independent validators running the open client software, and we are not in a position to direct or guarantee that outcome. We started Over Protocol with a simple idea: that a Layer 1 should belong to the people who run it, and that anyone with a personal computer should be able to take part. The community that formed around that idea was larger and more generous than we had any right to expect. We regret that we could not see it through to the end, and we are grateful for every part of the road we shared. — The Over Foundation
