These graphics from CoinKickoff break down and visualize the number of failed crypto coins by year (2013-2022).

Ever since the first major crypto boom in 2011, tens of thousands of cryptocurrency coins have been released to market.

And while some cryptocurrencies performed well, others have ceased to trade or have ended up as failed or abandoned projects.
