Ethereum layer-2 Kinto’s token plummeted after its team announced its blockchain would wind down on Sept. 30, months after a $1.6 million hack.
The Kinto token, the governance token of the Kinto Network, has plummeted over 80% after its team announced that its Ethereum layer-2 blockchain is shutting down at the end of September, following months of setbacks.
Kinto raised $1 million in debt to restore trading on its “modular exchange” after an industry-wide hack in July drained about 577 Ether (ETH) worth around $1.6 million from the protocol.
However, worsening market conditions “killed further fundraising,” forcing the crypto project to shut down, Kinto posted to Medium on Sunday.
