BlockBeats News, November 17th. The well-known crypto data website DappRadar posted on social media, saying "Seven years later, it's time to say goodbye," announcing the platform's closure:

"We have made the difficult decision to close the DappRadar platform. In the current environment, operating a project of this scale has become increasingly challenging from a financial sustainability perspective. After exhausting all possibilities, we have had to make this tough choice.

When we started in 2018, the space was still in its infancy. Early decentralized applications were few, explorers were scarce, and many questions about the future of decentralized applications remained unanswered. Inspired by Cryptokitties, we created DappRadar with the hope of helping people explore and understand this new world.

We have weathered the ups and downs of the market cycle together. We are proud to have helped millions of users discover decentralized applications, conduct research, and continue learning through our content. We have collaborated with hundreds of blockchain projects, thousands of developers, and teams. Our data has been referenced by journalists, appeared in research papers, and spread globally in various languages.

The blockchain space is often chaotic, and our mission was to make it more comprehensible and trustworthy. As we turn to leave, we are confident that we have held onto the right path, adhered to our principles, and injected positive energy into the industry.

In the coming days, we will start the platform's winding-down process, including ceasing to track blockchain and decentralized application data and gradually shutting down related services. Regarding DAO and RADAR token matters, further updates will be communicated through regular DAO channels. There are still important decisions to be made, and we look forward to community participation in discussions. The mission of helping people explore and understand decentralized applications should not end here. As a guiding light for the exploration that the Web3 space still needs, we hope someone will pick up the torch and continue moving forward."

AI has become critical infrastructure, and governments and corporations are competing to control it. Centralized development and regulation are entrenching existing power structures. The Web3 community is building a decentralized alternative — distributed compute, token incentives, and community governance — before that window closes.
