Decentralized card game fantasy.top will cease operations by the end of June.

The decentralized card game fantasy.top will cease operations by the end of June. The primary reason is that the long-term economic viability of the TCG (trading card game) model has revealed inherent limitations. Similar to other consumer-facing crypto products previously launched in this space—such as TopShot and Sorare—the trading volume has proven insufficient to sustain long-term operations. Over the past year, the team explored multiple product concepts and iterative directions within the social domain, yet none achieved lasting product-market fit. The main Fantasy tournaments will continue until June 18, after which all remaining rewards will be fully distributed and all Hero payouts completed. Additionally, the prediction market, prize pool, lobby, King of the Hill, Arena, Influence, and all associated gameplay features will cease operations starting May 21. Unused paid Arena tickets will be refunded.

Gate Research: Crypto Market Warms Up in April with RWA and On-Chain Capital Flow in Focus

Odaily Odaily News Gate Research recently released its "April 2026 Cryptocurrency Market Review" report, indicating that the overall cryptocurrency market saw a volatile upward trend in April, with total market capitalization significantly higher than in March. BTC and ETH ETF trading volumes maintained high volatility overall. The report shows continued divergence in activity across major public chain ecosystems. Solana's daily transaction volume remained in the range of approximately 90 million to 110 million transactions, maintaining its leading position.Regarding trending sectors, the report notes that Pokemon TCG RWA has become one of the fastest-growing on-chain RWA sub-sectors, entering a second explosive growth phase in April. Major trading platforms saw monthly trading volumes exceed $220 million, with weekly revenue briefly approaching $6 million, setting new historical records. Meanwhile, Aave experienced its most severe liquidity crisis ever in April, with TVL outflows reaching tens of billions of dollars within a few days and net outflows exceeding $9 billion for the entire month.In terms of fundraising and security incidents, the Web3 industry completed 51 financing rounds in April, totaling approximately $834 million, with capital further concentrating on leading financial and infrastructure tracks. Among these, Payward ranked first for the month with a $200 million financing round. On the security front, Web3 security incidents in April resulted in losses of approximately $306 million, a month-over-month increase of about 858%, primarily driven by a single cross-chain infrastructure attack on Kelp DAO worth approximately $293 million. The report suggests that against the backdrop of a recovering market, on-chain activity and capital liquidity are both increasing simultaneously. However, the security risks associated with cross-chain infrastructure and high-leverage protocols remain worthy of continued attention.
